Alto Metals Limited announced the re- commencement of reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the Vanguard Prospect, to follow up ore grade gold intercepts from it's maiden 2017 RC drilling program. This Vanguard drilling program of approximately 1,600m is the first in a series of carefully focused drilling campaigns in 2018 to define substantial deposits of oxide and primary gold mineralization at Sandstone. Alto's 2017 drilling programs at Vanguard identified both oxide and primary gold mineralization, with the oxide mineralization generally extending to 50m to 60m depth from surface. Below the base of complete oxidation, multiple zones of moderate to steeply dipping high-grade, structurally controlled primary mineralization were discovered and remain open at depth. The RC drill holes planned in this first program of the season are designed to follow-up open pittable gold mineralization detected on 40m x 80m and 40m x 40m drill spacings. Assay results are expected to be turned around quickly to assist with resource modelling and wireframing which is currently in progress.
