American Eagle's Development and Exploration Updates:

  • Drill pad construction will be underway soon, and drilling is expected to commence in November
  • Drill permits have been received from the Bureau of Land Management for the Golden Gate drill campaign.
  • The exploration team has utilized geochemistry and geophysics to delineate two initial drill target zones on the Cortez Fault zone, south of Barrick's Cortez Hills mine. Geophysical targeting includes:
    • 2D seismic survey which showed significant folding & thrusting near-surface that could provide mineralization traps for Carlin-type deposits.
    • CSAMT which showed sizable and 'rooted' areas of high resistivity characteristic of lower plate carbonate rocks
  • The campaign will begin with a 3,000-metre program, with 3 - 4 drill holes focused on the Northern Cortez and Southern Cortez target zones - click here to see Target Zones
  • The goal of the program is to intercept lower plate rocks and identify deep alteration, and mineralization analogous to Barrick Gold's Gold Rush and Cortez Hills projects next door
  • Results of the drill program will help the exploration team delineate a second drill campaign to vector into a discovery of an orebody

"American Eagle Gold has taken great care in completing the appropriate groundwork to maximize the potential outcome of this upcoming drill program. Our team understands the challenges that discovery brings, but being located within the Cortez Trend, adjacent to world-class orebodies owned by Barrick and Newmont provides us valuable information and insight on the gold system we believe travels through the Golden Gate property. Also, being led by Mark Bradley, who discovered Barrick's Gold Rush deposit, gives us great confidence in our exploration team. The Cortez trend has been an incredibly fertile ground for gold, and we believe we are well-positioned for discovery," said Anthony Moreau, CEO for American Eagle Gold.

About American Eagle Gold Corp.

American Eagle Gold is traded on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol 'AE' and is focused on exploring its flagship property, Golden Gate. The property is strategically situated on the Cortez Trend, which hosts three large Carlin-type gold deposits operated by Barrick and Newmont's Joint Venture, Nevada Gold Mines (Pipeline, Cortez Hills and Goldrush). The property is located 10 km south of Cortez Hills and 5 km south of Goldrush and shows many of the same geological characteristics as at the two deposit areas. Additionally, American Eagle Gold has optioned the Cerros Rojos Property, located 150km south of Newmont's Long Canyon mine in Nevada.
