“The expansion of the claim package to 640 acres keeps us within the upper limit allowable for an environmental permit application, while allowing us to increase the project footprint,” commented Golden Independence CEO Tim Henneberry. “Management continues to focus on an updated resources estimate in H1/2021, to be immediately followed by a Preliminary Economic Assessment in H2/2021 and a mine development application. Our project location within the Nevada Gold Mines’ (Barrick/Newmont JV) Plan of Operations combined with our 640 acre project footprint should facilitate a permitting turn-around time within the guidelines of the Battle Mountain BLM office,” he continued. “Our reverse circulation drilling program is progressing with samples from the first six holes submitted to ALS Minerals prep lab in Elko,” he concluded.
