Hanstone Gold Corp. announced the commencement of HQ diamond drilling on its high grade Doc Property, located in British Columbia's prolific mining district known as the Golden Triangle. Hanstone intends to conduct a 5,000m, large diameter HQ core drilling program in 2021. Last year's very successful drill program returned exceptional results that will be followed up this year with the goal of extending the strike and depth of the known mineralized occurrences as well as test additional new targets. These new targets were previously identified utilizing airborne geophysical data which outlined the extension of geophysical gravity lows associated with known gold bearing quartz vein structures. Each drill pad set-up will accommodate several downdip and azimuth swing drill holes designed to extend the strike and dip of mineralized structures with the ultimate goal of preparing a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource focused on the Doc property. Previously announced significant diamond drill core results returned from the 2020 drill program included 2.25 metres grading 6.18 g/t Au, including 47.78 g/t Ag; 0.80 metres grading 10.8 g/t Au; and 7.02 metres grading 2.27 g/t Au. Additional positive results included 13.28 metres grading 12.01 g/t Au, including an exceptional intercept of 1.28 metres grading 113.70 g/t Au. Current warm weather conditions have allowed for the early commencement of this year's drill program, expected to continue into the early fall. 2021 Drill Program results will be released as they become available.
