The discovery came during the first phase of Gold TerraSA国际影视传媒檚 drilling program that consisted of 7,242 metres across 13 holes, the company stated in a news release on April 27.

Five of the six million ounces of gold mined at Con were in the Campbell Shear, the company added.

The drilling took place at the companySA国际影视传媒檚 optioned property from Newmont Ventures Limited and Miramar Northern Mining Limited, near the YCG Project.

The results from the recent three holes reveal high-grade zones similar to the ones mined at Con, and are part of the same system that requires drilling with closer spacing.

Gold Terra president and CEO David Suda said the company is encouraged by the continuity of gold deposits connected with the historic gold envelope of Con Mine.

The recent discovery comes after drilling in the shear found gold deposits of 5.77 grams per tonne over 12.35 metres , and of 10.85 grams per tonne over 4.35 metres , Suda added.
