ESGold Corp. has uncovered a major untested geological target at its Montauban Project in Quebec, potentially signaling substantial mineral exploration prospects. The company identified a large-scale, high-conductivity geophysical anomaly in the southwestern portion of its expanded 255-claim property, which now encompasses 13,116 hectares.
The newly discovered zone exhibits characteristics typical of buried sulfide-rich Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) environments, featuring strong conductive and magnetic signatures. Notably, this area remains undrilled, positioning it as a high-priority exploration target for future investigation.
Currently, ESGold is developing a comprehensive 3D geological model of the project, integrating multiple data sources including VTEM and Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) surveys, historical drilling data from over 950 boreholes, and upcoming Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey results. This advanced modeling approach will provide critical guidance for potential future drilling operations.
While the company continues to advance toward near-term production through tailings reprocessing, this southwest anomaly represents a strategic pivot toward expanding the project's discovery potential. The identification of this target underscores ESGold's commitment to thorough geological assessment and systematic exploration methodologies.
