Golden Independence Mining Corp. provided an update on drilling progress at the Company's Independence project located adjacent to Nevada Gold Mines' Phoenix-Fortitude mining operations in the Battle Mountain-Cortez trend of Nevada. Golden Independence has completed its 2020 resource expansion drill program at the Company's Independence project. A total of 23 reverse circulation (RC) holes were drilled with the objective of confirming the historic resource and expanding the areas of known mineralization. Assays from the recently completed drill program are being integrated with data from the 56 recently released historic RC drill holes, to produce an NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate for the Independence project anticipated in first quarter of 2021. Concurrent with the first quarter of 2021 NI 43-101 resource calculation, drilling is continuing with a 6,000-foot RC drill program targeting the extension of both known oxide and gold skarn mineralization in addition to testing the gold skarn mineralization's depth from surface. The Company also intends to drill three to five diamond core (DC) holes in early 2021 for geotechnical and engineering purposes.
