Vancouver-based miner Baru Gold has an-nounced the arrival of the drill rig on Sangihe island in Indonesia. The latest development will allow the company to launch a 25,000-metre drilling programme shortly.
“The initial area targeted for this drilling program is covered in the Sangihe 2010 NI 43-101 report which identified 835,000 ounces of gold as an inferred resource between Binebase and Bawone villages over approximately 1.2 kilometres of strike length,” the miner said in a statement.
“An infill drilling program will be conducted in this area to upgrade some of the inferred resources into indicated and measured resource status. Over the past few months, the Company has prepared 27 drill pad sites which will be the focus of activity over the next two months,” according to the statement.
