Guia Antigua, Colombia
The 2021 infill drilling and exploration program on the Guia Antigua project began in early July with a rig targeting extensions of mineralization surrounding the historic Guia Antigua mine located near Segovia, Antioquia, Colombia and will test some targets concepts described by mapping and field sampling. , soil geochemistry and a UAV magnetic survey.
The Guia Antigua project covers 386 hectares in the easternmost part of a mining title owned by Gran Colombia Gold Corp. in the mining district of Segovia-Remedios. Gran Colombia’s high-grade mines in Segovia have been in continuous operation for over 150 years and have produced approximately 6 million ounces of gold. The Guia Antigua mine is located approximately 5 km east of the Segovia de Gran Colombia operations.
The drilling program includes 17 drill holes totaling 3,460 m. To date, two infill holes have been completed confirming at least two main zones of mineralization. The results of the assay are still pending.
A review of geological and structural data is currently underway in order to better understand the geological control over known historical high grade shoots.
