Everton Commences a 5,000 Meter Diamond Drilling Program at Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo, Dominican Republic
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Mar 19, 2014) - Everton Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EVR)(FRANKFURT:ERV) ("Everton" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the start of a core drilling program on its 100% owned Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo concession located adjacent to the Pueblo Viejo gold mine (Barrick/Goldcorp) in the central Dominican Republic.
André Audet, Everton's Chairman and CEO, commented, "After a long wait, we are excited about resuming drilling at Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo. We are testing several new targets based on new interpretation and analyses of all relevant data. We are committed to taking the right steps to move our project forward."
The drilling program will consist of 10-15 holes, 200 to 300 meters deep, along the boundary of the concession to the East and North to explore the mineralized structures that may extend from the Monte Negro and Arroyo Hondo pits of the Pueblo Viejo complex. These structures have been interpreted from a combination of detailed geological mapping, soils and rock geochemistry, and ground and airborne geophysics.
Everton and Energold Drilling Corp. have entered into a diamond drilling contract for the Ampliacion Pueblo Viejo property. This drilling program is expected to continue into April. Follow-up drilling will be determined based on the results of this drilling program.
