Bison Gold Resources Enhances the Size of Drilling Program at Ogama Zone

By Joel ScanlonApr 16 2011

Bison Gold Resources has increased the dimensions of the diamond drilling from 5,000 to 10,000 metres based on positive results from the initial eight drill holes at the Ogama zone expansion.

The company has intersected 37.1 g/t gold over 2.46 metres in hole OG-10-04 and is presently fencing the drill holes. Bison expects to receive the assay results in the upcoming weeks.

The company has encountered major high-grade gold mineralization so far in this program. It not only found the depth expansion and strike of the Ogama zone but also intercepted further high-grade hangingwallâ€Ÿ gold mineralization. In order to hold the additional follow-up drilling on the received high grade results, the company has doubled the drilling program size.

Bison has cut 17.6 g/t gold over 6.55 metres in drill hole OG-10-05, 5.3 g/t gold over 25.64 metre in hole OG-09-01 and 36.5 g/t gold over 1.92 metres including 26.5 g/t gold over 1.25 metres in hole OG-09-02. The company has planned to complete drilling to analyze the depth extension of these drill holes, with the further 5,000 metres.
