Nexus Gold Corp. reported in an effort to guide upcoming drill plans that it has begun a prospecting and targeting program at the McKenzie Gold Project, located in Red Lake, Ontario, Canada. The prospecting program is primarily focused on the northern shores of Perch Lake in the St. Paul's Bay area of the 1,400-ha project and is designed to explore and confirm the extension of mineralization previously identified by the company in its spring 2021 diamond drill program. The current program has already generated positive results with the prospecting team identifying mineralization in two previously unknown trenches. Mineralization within these trenches consists of quartz veins containing clots and patches of semi massive Chalopyrite, Pyrite and Molybdenite. The veins are hosted in granite which displays strong pervasive silica flooding. Local discrete shearing in both trenches trend at approximate attitudes of 330° and dip 70° to 80° to the east, displaying similar trends as were observed in the spring drilling campaign. The trenches are located on the northern shore of the Perch Lake and extend the known mineralization some 400 meters to the north and north-west.
