Sierra Nevada Gold Hits Shallow High-Grade Gold at Warrior Project

/in , /by

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Sierra Nevada Gold (ASX: SNX) reported results from recent drilling undertaken at the company’s Warrior gold project in central Nevada, USA.

Sierra Nevada Gold completed 12 reverse circulation (RC) holes at the historic Warrior Mine in December 2023, from which it has received positive results.

The company explained the drilling focused on testing the upper portions of the Warrior Mine at both Gold Coin and Discovery Shaft areas as well as testing a southern vein system first encountered in earlier drilling immediately south of the Warrior Mine workings.

Latest results include:

WARC022
20.73 metres at 2.13 grams per tonne gold from 62.2m, including 10.97m at 3.76g/t gold from 63.4m (Warrior South);

WARC013
4.88m at 5.49g/t gold from 8.5m (Gold Coin);

WARC019
10.97m at 1.80g/t gold from 40.2m (Warrior);

WARC014
7.32m at 1.73g/t gold from 25.6m (Gold Coin); and

WARC015
8.53m at 1.64g/t gold from 6.1m (Gold Coin).

“Our results have identified potential for a fully preserved epithermal vein system below the outcropping and previously mined high-grade veins at the Warrior Mine,” Sierra Nevada Gold executive chairman Peter Moore said in the company’s ASX announcement.

“Identifying this well distributed second system beneath the entire Warrior Mine is very encouraging and increases the search space for high-grade epithermal veins within the immediate Warrior Mine area.”
