Granite Creek Gold Ltd. has announced that a Diamond Drill has been moved to the copper-gold-molybdenum Taseko property, located 225 kilometres north of Vancouver, BC, and drilling has commenced.
The program is planned for up to 1,800 metres at 6 drill sites. The areas selected for drill testing include the Buzzer, Buzzer West and East Zones.
In the Buzzer Zone, drilling will target an area of historic drilling where shallow holes (61 to 150 metres in length) ended in copper mineralization. Drill holes in the area will be testing not only for copper but also molybdenum and gold. The Buzzer West Zone is an area of soil samples highly anomalous in copper that has never been drilled. Drilling will be testing for copper, molybdenum and gold. Both of the above zones are being drilled to get a better understanding of the bulk tonnage potential of the property.
The East Zone is being targeted in an attempt to find higher-grade copper-gold mineralization similar to that in the adjacent Empress Deposit. Drill holes in this zone will offset historic drill holes with known mineralization.
The drill program is under the supervision of Dr. Mathias Westphal P.Geo, the qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
