Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd. announced further results from the 2016 Phase I Island Mountain exploration drilling program at the Company's Cariboo Gold Project that resulted in the discovery of two new mineralized zones. The recently completed 27,131 metre, 2016 Phase I exploratory drilling program on Island Mountain continues to identify new, near-surface zones of high-grade auriferous quartz vein mineralization down dip, and along strike of the historic Aurum and Mosquito Creek Mines. A newly developed geological model provides the company with the ability to successfully target new vein ore bodies proximal to historically exploited areas.
