Victoria Gold reaffirms commitment to acquiring StrataGold Corp

Victoria Gold reaffirms commitment to acquiring StrataGold Corp

Victoria Gold Corp. (TSX-V: VIT) reiterated its commitment to acquiring StrataGold Corp, which it said was selected as an acquisition target due to the potential of the Eagle Zone Project – an advanced stage gold project.   Eagle Zone hosts an NI 43-101 indicated resource of 2.7 million ounces of gold grading 0.85 grams per tonne.

Victoria Gold believes the project may be suitable for a low cost heap leach gold mine.


“In the opinion of management of Victoria, the Eagle Zone Project shares many geological similarities to Kinross Gold Corporation's Ft. Knox Gold Mine in Alaska. Kinross Gold is Victoria's largest shareholder, holding approximately 25% of the Company's outstanding common shares,” the company added.


As part of the acquisition, Victoria Gold agreed to lend StrataGold up to $750,000, but today confirmed that it had extended the loan by a further $250,000 to allow StrataGold to ensure that the project’s permitting process remained ‘on track’.


The junior gold exploration and development company also confirmed that it had received permitting to drill 10 sites at its Summit property in Nevada.

 

Victoria Gold Corp will be presenting at our One2One Investor Forum in Toronto this evening, alongside Kootenay Gold and El Nino Ventures.
