Ridgestone Mining has released assay results for 8 holes completed at the New Year zone and Alaska vein at its 34.6-sq.-km Rebeico gold-copper project, which “suggest a potentially large intrusion-related mineralized system,” according to Jonathan George, Ridgestone’s CEO.

The drill highlights include 29.2 metres of 0.54% copper starting at surface from the New Year zone, with a higher-grade 2.3-metre section of 1.95% copper from 11 metres. An additional step-out hole targeting the New Year zone area hit 0.7 metres of 2.62 g/t gold and 0.54% copper from 64.3 metres.
