Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 24, 2024) - Sixty North Gold Mining Ltd. (CSE: SXTY) (FSE: 2F40) (OTC Pink: SXNTF) (the "Company" or "Sixty North Gold")
Sixty North Gold is pleased to announce that it has successfully installed a temporary camp and dock facilities and moved crews to the Mon Gold Mine Property. All of the mobile equipment and fixed equipment has been checked by mechanics and electricians and confirmed to be in good order. Mining crews have moved into camp and mining has commenced with two shifts per day, seven days per week.
The Company plans to extend the existing ramp to intercept the A-Zone vein 20 m below the historic stopes. Dr. Dave Webb, Ph.D., P.Eng., P.Geol., President & CEO, Director, stated, "We anticipate 30 m of advance per week before we commence driving cross-cuts into the vein. We should be encountering the vein in 15 to 20 days' time."
The Company has assembled an outstanding operating team of miners and support staff to help us meet our development goals. Our Mon Gold Mine holds all licenses and permits needed to commence full mining and milling operations. We plan to open up stopes and to bring enough mineralization to surface to confirm the grade and tonnage potential of this project, with assays reported as they are received."
Visible gold is historically abundant in the vein and as viewed today, and panned drill-cuttings have been used as a guide to assess the tenor of mineralization during operations. A 100 tpd mill has been sourced and we plan to acquire it and install it onto the property to commence recovery of gold as quickly as possible."
