Reverse circulation drilling.

The Mina Gold property covers an area of approximately 825 acres consisting of 43 unpatented claims and 5 patented claims in central Nevada’s Walker Lane Mineral Belt in Mineral County, Nevada. Multiple mineralized structures have now been defined at Mina Gold.  Management’s goal is to delineate a high-grade gold open pit, or multiple gold open pits, with surface and near surface mineralization (see map).

Mr. Barry Devlin, Vice President of Exploration, stated, “Phase two drill results from the Mina Gold property continue to validate the Company’s phase one and historic near surface, high-grade gold results.  It is encouraging to see the continued definition of high-grade gold associated with thicker zones at Mina.  The Company is currently developing a phase three drill campaign to target and expand known mineralized zones at Mina Gold.”

“We have purposefully and exclusively focused exploration drilling to date on Mina Gold’s patented mining claims,” stated Gold Resource Corporation’s CEO and President, Mr. Jason Reid.  “It’s exciting to see additional surface and near surface high-grade intercepts and numerous mineralized structures, including 15.24 meters of 3.34 grams per tonne gold starting just six meters downhole, underscoring the property’s potential.  The Mina Gold property continues to conform to our goal of identifying near surface open pit deposits with gold grades averaging above one gram per tonne.  Our ultimate goal is to find, delineate and place into production numerous open pit heap leach operations from our Nevada Mining Unit’s property portfolio in the Walker Lane Mining District.  If we could keep future Mina Gold operations on the patented claims, it could potentially shorten the overall permit timing for this property.”

Gold Mesa

Following up on the Company’s 2017 drill programs, which targeted broad areas of potential economic mineralization, subsequent drilling tested the identified mineralized zones for continuity, depth extension and economic mineral expansion potential.  Based on these latest drill results, Company management has decided to terminate its option to purchase the Gold Mesa property and focus its capital resources on its four Nevada Mining Unit properties that are 100% Company owned.

Mr. Jason Reid stated, “It is often difficult to walk away from a property with high-grade gold, but our analysis of the expansion potential of the known mineralization at Gold Mesa makes the decision for us.  In addition, we are in construction of our Isabella Pearl Project and feel we have far more prospective properties in our portfolio to allocate capital towards.”  

The Company’s Nevada Mining Unit consists of its flagship Isabella Pearl Project which is currently in construction with first gold production targeted by the second quarter of 2019, while the Mina Gold, East Camp Douglas and County Line properties are in various stages of exploration.  All four Nevada properties have surface and/or near surface high-grade gold drill intercepts and potential for future high-grade open pit heap leach operations.  The Company’s Nevada Mining Unit covers more than 10,120 hectares (25,000 acres) in south central Nevada’s Walker Lane Mineral Belt.
