Granada had mined over 164K Oz of silver!

Granada Gold Mine updates its 2020 plans and activities aimed at exploration and bulk sampling with the related highlights. Diamond drilling aims to focus on the high-grade Vein No 1 structure.  To date, the structure has been traced for 500 metres on surface.

 

Historic underground production between 1930 and 1935, from 2 shafts had an average grade of 9.7 grams /tonne gold and 1.5 grams/tonne silver from 164,816 tonnes of mineralized material (51,476 ounces gold in 181,744 tons at 0.28 oz/ton) primarily from Vein No.2 underground.

 

A 1994 bulk sample extracted 87,311 tonnes grading 5.17 g/t gold from Pit No.1 (on Vein No. 1) *

A later, 1996 bulk sample extracted a bulk sample of 22,095 tonnes from surface grading 3.46 g/t gold from Vein 2.

 

Coarse, native gold was observed in the drill core of hole GR-19-E which intersected a high-grade zone with 12.32 g/t Au over 2 metres core length at a depth of 35.5 metres on the extended LONG Bars zone. The core length reported is estimated to have intersected 85-90% of true thickness of the zone. Assays are uncut except where indicated.
