Minera Alamos to commence drilling aimed at expanding areas of defined gold mineralization at Santana/los Verdes Property, Sonora, Mexico
The Phase One drill program consisting of up to 20 holes with a combined meterage of approximately 3,000 m is anticipated to begin in the next month and will prioritize areas associated with the extension of the Nicho Main deposit to the NW and SE, as well as additional holes at Nicho Norte testing continuity into the contiguous Los Verdes claims (Nicho Norte is currently undergoing bulk heap leaching tests to determine optimal crushing sizes for the potential development of a commercial heap-leach mining operation).
