April 25, 2024 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, British Columbia – Radius Gold Inc. (TSXV: RDU)(“Radius”) and joint venture partner, Volcanic Gold Mines Inc.(TSXV: VG) (“Volcanic”) are pleased to report on the ongoing drilling campaign at the Motagua NorteProject.
As previously reported (April 3, 2024), drillingconfirmed that the broad area of boulder float with abundant bonanzagrade assay results discovered by Volcanic geologists at the Milatarget is underlain by a serpentinite package, and the colluvialboulders of quartz and schists bearing high-grade gold values havelikely moved downslope from a major structural corridor, that includesthe Veta Madre Fault.
Initial results have been received for the first twodiamond drill holes (MIDD-24-04 & 05) drilled to the south thatcut the broad Veta Madre Fault. The results indicate the gold bearingcolluvium fields did not originate from the Veta Madre structure as noanomalous samples were returned from these two holes. Geologicalmapping further upslope, south of Veta Madre, has identified anotherlarge quartz structure (Veta Padre). Between the two main structuresvisible gold in outcrop in narrow south dipping veins has beenobserved.
Drilling is now focused on the veins to the south ofthe Veta Madre and testing the stockwork zones.
