Ramp Metals (TSXV: RAMP) has drilled a new high-grade gold discovery in Saskatchewan. Partial results from the first hole of the 2024 winter drilling program included 73.55 g/t gold and 19.50 g/t silver over 7.5 metres, including 164 g/t gold over 1.5 metre, 182 g/t gold over 1.5 metre, and 60.8 g/t gold over 1.5 metre in hole Ranger-01. The intersection began 227 metres down hole.
The same hole returned 4.27 g/t gold over 5 metres, including 6.18 g/t gold over 1.5 metre, and 7.28 g/t over 1.5 metre, beginning at 293 metres. Another intersection began at 307 metres and assayed 1.81 g/t gold over 3 metres, 2.54 g/t gold over 1 metre, and 2.85 g/t gold over 1 metre.
"We are thrilled to make a significant gold discovery in our first drill program on the property. These intercepts are in line with the highest-grade intercepts drilled in Saskatchewan. These drill results indicate a huge potential at Rottenstone SW and mark an exceptional milestone in Ramp Metals history," said CEO Jordan Black.
The Rottenstone SW target is a greenfield opportunity located about 115 km north of La Ronge, Sask. It's located 30 km southwest of the historic Rottenstone nickel-copper-PGM plus gold mine, which produced about 40,000 tonnes of high-grade ore and is now part of Fathom Nickel's (CSE: FNI) Albert Lake property.
Ramp will continue investing two conductors (Rogue and Ranger) in the current program and two other untested conductive anomalies at Rottenstone SW with ground geophysics.
Ramp Metals earned a 100%-interest in the Rottenstone SW and PLD properties by drilling 1,180 metres this year. Three of the holes intersected disseminated to semi-massive mineralization. Two grab samples taken last October returned 5.11 g/t and 1.09 g/t gold.
