Core Insights - Tower Resources Ltd. reported significant gold assay results from its Rabbit North property, with Hole 060 intersecting 23.63 g/t Au over 6.02 meters, indicating the potential for a substantial gold deposit in the Durand Diorite [1][2][4] - The drilling campaign aimed to determine the strike and dip of the Blue Sky gold trend, successfully extending the gold zone 70 meters along strike and 90 meters upward to within 55 meters of the surface [2][13] Drilling Results - Hole 060, drilled 70 meters northeast of Hole 055, returned an exceptional gold grade of 23.63 g/t Au, including a high-grade interval of 51.30 g/t Au over 1.95 meters [1][4][12] - Hole 059 intersected 7.6 meters of 3.28 g/t Au, including a notable 0.97 meters of 16.20 g/t Au, suggesting the presence of a mineralized volcanic-hosted shear zone [8][12] Geological Context - The Blue Sky gold zone is hosted within the Durand Diorite, with the recent drilling indicating a northeast strike extending towards historical gold intersections [2][4] - The presence of magnetite in Hole 060's diorite may influence gold mineralization, as it can scavenge gold from hydrothermal fluids [6][12] Future Plans - The successful intersection of the Blue Sky gold zone provides orientation data for future drilling, with plans for deeper and longer holes to follow the gold structure [13] - Additional assays from Hole 061 and Hole 062 are anticipated to provide further insights into the gold mineralization in the area [13]
