First Class Metals (LSE:FCM) has announced the discovery of additional visible gold within drill core from a second hole at the Roy prospect on its Sunbeam property in Ontario, providing further evidence of gold mineralisation along the targeted structure. The company has now completed its planned drilling campaign at Roy, which comprised 12 holes totalling 1,030 metres and confirmed the presence of the mineralised zone across a strike length exceeding 300 metres.
Geological logging and sampling activities are continuing, with six drill holes logged so far and eight remaining to be cut and sampled. The first two holes have already been sent to Thunder Bay for laboratory assay. According to management, the drilling campaign has produced encouraging early results, with multiple occurrences of visible gold and its association with galena strengthening the exploration potential of the Roy structure and enhancing the overall prospectivity of the wider Sunbeam property for future gold development.
