en.Wedoany.com Reported - American Pacific has hired drilling contractors for its fully funded 15,000-meter drill program at the Madison Copper-Gold Project in the United States. For the reverse circulation drilling portion, the company has engaged O'Keefe Drilling, based in Butte, Montana; for the diamond core portion of the program, the company has engaged Nasco Industrial Services and Supply LLC ("NISS"), acting on behalf of itself or its wholly-owned subsidiary NISS Drilling Services LLC, based in Kellogg, Idaho.

Utilizing both reverse circulation and diamond drilling methods will optimize costs, improve efficiency, and accelerate target testing across multiple zones. Reverse circulation drilling will be used to quickly and cost-effectively test near-surface skarn targets and establish pre-collars for deeper core tails, while diamond drilling will focus on testing deep, high-priority porphyry targets. The 15,000-meter drill program is designed to test two complementary opportunities: expanding the near-surface known copper-gold skarn mineralization and discovering the deeper, larger intrusive-related copper-gold porphyry source. Recent technical work supports the interpretation that Madison represents a more extensive, evolved mineralized system than historically recognized.

The program will test up to eight of the highest-priority skarn and porphyry targets, which are the most informative drill targets defined on the project. These targets are the result of integrating extensive technical work, including: detailed geological and structural mapping; reinterpretation of historical drilling and surface geochemistry; high-resolution geophysics; and advanced 3D modeling and data analysis.

CEO and Director Warwick Smith commented: "With drill rigs secured, we look forward to commencing the upcoming 15,000-meter drill program, designed to test the most compelling skarn and porphyry targets we have ever defined. These targets are the product of extensive data compilation, careful interpretation of historical and recent work, and 3D modeling. Our team is eager to begin validating the geological picture we see in our models."
