Nevada Pacific goes Buffalo hunting

Vancouver-based junior Nevada Pacific Gold (NPG-V) has picked up the Buffalo Canyon gold project by staking 44 lode claims on the west flank of the Shoshone Range, about four miles south of the town of Ione.

The property, which came with a price tag of $US$8,800, is home to an intrusive-related gold system with five known gold targets. Only the Main zone has seen drilling.

Grid soil sampling has delineated the Main zone over a 1-by-1.2-km area, including a 300-by-300-metre area defined by gold grades exceeding 145 parts per billion.

In the 1990s, 17 reverse-circulation holes to test a portion of the zone outcropping on a hillside returned up to 0.93 grams gold per tonne over 40 metres.

Nevada Pacific has already begun a program of data compilation, mapping and sampling on the five zones.
