Green River Gold (CCR) has discovered more nickel and chromium at its Quesnel Nickel Project.
Discoveries occurred in Zone 2 as well as two new locations at the B.C. project.
The company encountered nickel and chromium in seven additional backpack drill holes in Zone 2 (FCD-22-11 to FCD-22-17), which consists of a bedrock outcrop covering over 1.2 sq. km along the Deep Purple magnetic anomaly.

Future drilling plans on zones 1 and 2
Green River began a new drilling program on October 1st. It plans to drill 10 holes on Zone 2 using a Winkie drill capable of reaching depths of 100 m. It will also drill deeper into two holes initiated on Zone 1 last Spring on top of adding an additional hole. Backpack drilling will be continuing.
Fontaine Lode Gold Project exploration plan
Last year’s UAV magnetic survey identified many anomalies in the area. Before year-end, the company will collect soil and rock samples and perform mapping work and strategic drilling to substantiate mineralization.
CEO Perry Little spoke with Daniella Atkinson about the new intercepts and exploration plans moving forward.
Green River Gold is a mineral exploration company focused on precious and base metal projects in B.C.
Green River Gold (CCR) is unchanged, trading at $0.08 per share as of 10:48 am EST.
