Harvest Gold Provides Update on Exploration on its Urban Barry Gold Properties in Quebec
Vancouver, British Columbia / October 30, 2024 ‑ TheNewswire – Harvest Gold Corporation (TSXV: HVG) (“Harvest Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on the work being undertaken on its district scale, three property package in the Urban-Barry region of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt (see Figures 1, 2).
Rick Mark, President and CEO states: “Harvest is now in the process of determining and defining priority drill targets on the Company’s flagship Mosseau property. This is the first time the recently amalgamated Mosseau property’s disjointed, disparate historic data has been gathered, analyzed and interpreted as a single database. This presents a unique opportunity for our shareholders”.
Phase I Mosseau drilling is planned for the first half of 2025. High priority targets will be based on the integration and interpretation of the best previously identified gold showings and historical drill results in conjunction with the recently completed high resolution air magnetic data (Figure 3). This work will provide target strike and depth extensions for drilling in the northern part of the property.
The Company is currently undertaking a program of prospecting, geological mapping and soil sampling in the central portion of the Mosseau property (Figure 4). This work is being done by IOS Geo Scientifiques of Chicoutimi, Quebec, a highly respected consulting group with renowned expertise in geochemistry. Harvest Gold will integrate this new data with historical showings and drill results and this summer’s high resolution air magnetic data. Priority 2025 drill targets in the central portion of Mosseau will also be developed.
Finally, prospecting and geological mapping along favourable structures is also underway for the highly prospective, previously unexplored 100% owned Urban Barry (20km strike length) and LaBelle (9km strike length) properties.
