AABB has just completed its first drill hole of its Phase II Exploration and Development Program that will continue to target areas in extended proximity to the Company’s mine in Guerrero, Mexico, to further delineate the known historical and new gold vein structures. The Company recently concluded over 600 meters (m) of drilling inclusive of equipment testing and the completion of the first drill hole to depth.
The $4M Phase II Program estimates that more than 40 drill holes and over 20,000 (m) of drilling will be completed. All drill targets defined in the Program protocol were selected using data obtained from the Company’s Phase I Drill Program completed in the fourth quarter of 2018 and new geophysics data captured from the property region in the first quarter of this year.
In January of this year, the Company’s management and technical team were exhilarated with the successful drill results from the Phase I Program. The highlights of the drill results revealed high grade gold mineralization that attested the mine’s historical production to date. The most significant gold value intersections were 3.1 meters (m) graded at 10.9 grams per ton (g/t), 4.8 meters (m) graded at 8.7 grams per ton (g/t) and 14.2 meters (m) graded at 5.7 grams per ton (g/t).
At the same time Asia Metals completes the first drill hole of its Phase II program, Gold Prices remain elevated after recently reaching a 6-year high against all major currencies. Gold bullion prices have climbed in the wholesale market in 2019 to touch $1438 per ounce – the highest since May 2013.
