Richmont has reported that to date 4,222 metres of drilling in 5 drill holes has been completed on the Globex claims. Further, Richmont announced that three drill holes indicate a new gold discovery at the western boundary of the Globex optioned claims. Richmont described the new zone as: “7.09 g/t Au over 5.22 metres,
1.87 g/t Au over 9.24 metres and 4.07 g/t Au over 4.44 metres in the newly discovered Zone 4 which is located on the boundary of the Wasamac property and Globex Option”.
The potential of the newly discovered Zone 4 is open to the east and depth down dip and plunge on the Globex claims. Richmont further stated in their press release that “the 2012 drilling program will include approximately 55,000 metre and will now focus primarily on the Main Zone, Zone 3 extension and the optioned Globex claims”.
