November 26, 2024 – TheNewswire - BRONCO RESOURCES CORP. (TSX-V:BRON) (“Bronco” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of drilling at the Company’s Placer Mountain project in Southern BC (“Placer Mountain” or the “Property”). Bronco Resources plans on drilling a minimum of 1,500 meters focusing on the Kodiak Zone where high-grade gold was first discovered in 2021. This is the first follow up program since the discovery. The 14,445-hectare Placer Mountain property is located 15 kilometers south of the Copper Mountain Mine and Mill1, owned by Hudbay Minerals Inc.

 

Corbin Stewart, CEO, commented “We are pleased to announce the commencement of drilling at Placer Mountain for the first time since 2021. Placer Mountain is a new discovery with a large geochemical footprint and limited drilling providing a fantastic opportunity in southwestern BC.  We look to maximize our budget and focus on putting as many meters as possible into the ground over the coming weeks. We have a dynamic group, with a technical team and drilling contractor local to southern British Columbia affording us significant cost savings and flexibility. We are also very excited to announce Tim Henneberry will join Bronco as its Technical Advisor. Tim was part of the original discovery team on the project and brings a wealth of experience and knowledge. We would also like to thank Dr. Gerry Carlson for his efforts and guidance over the years through the discovery, prospecting, geochemical, trenching, and drilling programs.”

 

Bronco has engaged Dorado Drilling headquartered out of Vernon, BC as our drilling contractor for this year’s program. Dorado has extensive drilling experience in BC as well as the Yukon, NWT, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nunavut, Newfoundland and Ontario. With eleven diamond drills currently in operation and over eighty employees Dorado has the experience and the tools necessary to get job done safely and accurately.

 

Drilling will focus on testing the 1.5 kilometers gold-in-soil anomaly at the Kodiak Zone.  The 2021 discovery drill program on the Kodiak Zone only tested 150 meters of the 1.5 kilometers long anomaly. The 2021 program returned robust results with significant gold mineralization in all holes including intervals of 3.0m of 39.20 g/t Au and 80.40 g/t Ag in KZ-21-05 and 1.4m of 46.51 g/t Au and 32.20 g/t Ag in KZ-21-022.
