Junior Golden Tag Resources (VSE) has increased its interest in the Verneuil
Twp. gold property southeast of Matagami, Que., from 50% to 60%. The company has also staked an additional five claims to bring the total to 46 claims.
Golden Tag and Consolidated Gold Hawk Resources (ASE), owner of the remaining 40% interest, have signed an agreement, subject to regulatory approval, with Freewest Resources (TSE) which allows Freewest to earn a 50% interest in the property by making an undisclosed cash payment and by carrying out $500,000 in exploration work.
No significant work has been done on the property since 1956 when three separate drill intersections were announced: 5 ft. grading 0.15 oz. gold per ton, 2 ft. at 0.27 oz. and 1.1 ft. at 2.28 oz.
Golden Tag and Freewest have also entered into three separate agreements covering a total of 283 claims in the immediate vicinity of the 1956 discovery. Golden Tag will be able to earn varying interests through cash payments and by participating in exploration work on the claims.
