en.Wedoany.com Reported - Australian geological exploration company Manhattan Gold Corporation Ltd. has announced the launch of a drilling program at the Hook Lake project in Nunavut, Canada, marking the first drilling operation in the region in over 30 years. Located within the Rankin-Ennadai greenstone belt, the project covers 423 square kilometers and features geological conditions that include both high-grade gold systems and volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS)-type copper-zinc-gold-silver mineralization.

This year, Manhattan plans to complete 4,000 meters of reverse circulation drilling. The drilling will focus primarily on gold zones, while also conducting preliminary tests on polymetallic targets, including the Spectre target. In 1974, historical drilling at the Spectre target encountered a copper-zinc-gold-silver massive sulfide mineralization lens. In addition to drilling, the company will carry out an extensive sampling program and airborne magnetic geophysical surveys to systematically assess zinc and other polymetallic mineralization beneath the shallow ice cover across the entire mining area.
