Bardoc Gold Limited reported a number of significant assay results from in-fill and exploration drilling at its cornerstone Zoroastrian (526koz Au) and Excelsior (320koz Au) Deposits, part of its 100%-owned 3.03Moz Bardoc Gold Project, located 40km north of Kalgoorlie in WA. The drilling results from both Zoroastrian and Excelsior targeted areas of lower confidence mineralisation in their respective resource models, paving the way for the inclusion of these areas in an updated Ore Reserve as part of the upcoming Definitive Feasibility Study, while also identifying extensions to known deposits. While the Company has experienced some delays in the receipt of assays over the festive season due to the huge upsurge in drilling activity across the gold sector, Bardoc Gold reported that the turnaround time for assays is now rapidly improving. The Company continues to work closely with its assay partners and is implementing strategies to improve assay turnaround. Given the high level of exploration activity across the Bardoc Gold Project, the Company expects to be in a position to deliver a high frequency of news-flow over the coming weeks in the lead-up to the DFS. The 526koz Zoroastrian Deposit continues to develop into a more complex multi-lode system as new information from recent drilling is interpreted. Further drilling will be designed to extend known mineralisation ­ both high grade mineralisation at depth and broad, lower grade mineralisation near surface ­ as well as to test structurally generated target zones as part of a broad ongoing exploration effort. While the Royal Mint and Blueys are the best know lodes at Zoroastrian, the recent development of the Royal Mint Lode into a much wider zone (KNC200014) has significantly enhanced the growth potential at the northern end of the deposit and adds to the longer-term opportunities yet to be discovered in the million- ounce Zoroastrian-Excelsior Gold Camp. The new results reported in this announcement are in line with expectations while hole KNCD202006, which intersected 12m @ 2.17g/t Au from 194m, exceeds the expectations in the current resource model. Further drilling is being planned to follow up on KNC202017, which intersected 8m @ 2.90g/t Au from 156m, 11m @ 3.08g/t Au from 190m, 9m @ 2.12g/t Au from 207m and 4m @ 3.87g/t Au from 219m as well as targeting the projected down-plunge position of KNC200014, which returned a very strong intercept of 89m @ 1.43g/t Au from 192m including 8m @ 3.35g/t Au from 193m and 13m @ 2.19g/t Au from 225m. The recent drilling at the cornerstone 320koz Excelsior Deposit is part of a drill program that was designed to upgrade specific areas of mineralisation in resource confidence. The results have confirmed the existing Resource and exceeded expectations in a number of areas. Excelsior is part of the million-ounce Zoroastrian-Excelsior Gold Camp and is a regionally significant deposit located on the Excelsior Shear which can be followed for over 5km along a north-south trend. The Excelsior Shear requires additional exploration work along its strike length including the 27koz Au Lochinvar Deposit, located just 1.3km north of Excelsior. Gold mineralisation at Lochinvar is open along strike and also down-plunge. The Bardoc Gold Project was formed in October 2018 following completion of the merger between Excelsior Gold and Spitfire Materials, bringing together significant resources and excellent potential for growth. The Bardoc Gold Project runs contiguously north for 40km in the Eastern Goldfields. There are four main deposits and a multitude of smaller projects within the 250km2 land-holding, providing a large Resource base and excellent exploration potential within the prolific Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt and junction of the Bardoc Tectonic Zone (BTZ) and the Black Flag Fault (BFF). These two deep-seated crustal structures host many multi-million-ounce deposits, including the world-renowned Golden Mile in Kalgoorlie.
