ESGold drilling and nearly milling

Join us as we speak with Gordon Robb, CEO and director of ESGold (CSE:ESAU), about gold, silver, and diamond (drilling) at the Montauban Project in Québec, Canada. As the company’s maiden drilling kicks off to validate historical data, more equipment is arriving for fully permitted operations to recover gold, silver, and mica from historical mine tailings.

🔑 Key topics discussed:

  • Milestone reached: 5,000m drilling program to validate historical results and resource model
  • Stepping out: Also testing anomalies identified through geophysics in previously underexplored areas
  • Taking delivery: Equipment installation for tailings processing as the company looks ahead to the first doré pour

About the guest and company:
Gordon Robb brings extensive experience to ESGold, a differentiated mining company with a dual strategy to generate cash flow from historical mine waste and invest in exploration across a broader mineralised system. The Montauban Project in Québec combines a fully permitted, 1,000-tonne-per-day tailings reprocessing operation with a growing district-scale exploration opportunity. 

🎥 Watch the full interview to gain insights into the pointy end of things, as years of preparation come together onsite.
