Tiger Gold Expands Ceibal Drill Program to 5,000m with Two Rigs
Tiger Gold has expanded its initial Ceibal drilling program on its Quinchía Gold Project from 1,500 to 5,000 metres and mobilized two rigs to accelerate exploration. Prior drilling at Ceibal returned long porphyry-style gold intersections including 500 metres at 0.5 g/t Au and 579.1 metres at 0.5 g/t Au.
1. Drill Program Expansion
Tiger Gold has commenced drilling at the Ceibal target with two diamond rigs, increasing the initial program from 1,500 metres to 5,000 metres as part of a broader 20,000-metre campaign at Quinchía.
2. Prior Drilling Highlights
Between 2021 and 2022, eight HQ and NQ drill holes totalling 5,433.76 metres returned intervals including 500 m at 0.5 g/t Au and 579.1 m at 0.5 g/t Au, confirming extensive porphyry-style mineralisation.
3. Target Location and Geology
The Ceibal target lies approximately 1 km south of Miraflores and 1 km southwest of Tesorito within the Marmato Fault Corridor, featuring an 800 × 600 m Au-Cu-Mo surface anomaly and andesite-hosted porphyry-style veining.
4. Program Objectives
The expanded 5,000-metre program aims to define the mineralised corridor’s strike and depth continuity, include a 1,200-metre step-out hole to test feeder zones, and generate data for future resource definition drilling.
