Pacgold (ASX:PGO) has completed 95% of its reverse circulation drilling campaign at the Vertigo Pit within the White Dam Gold Project in South Australia, with assays ‘underpinning confidence’ of the project.
Assays received to date include 11m @ 1 gram per tonne and 0.03% copper from 13m, 4m @ 3g/t gold and 0.11% copper from 33m, and 9m @ 1.7g/t gold and 0.38% copper from 61m.
Pacgold has completed 159 holes across 9,974m from drilling thus far, after the program took off in late November 2025.
The company will continue with the remaining 5% of the program across the Hannaford Pit resource estimate, infill drilling at the White Dam North resource estimate, and testing at the Rolling prospect.
An additional reverse circulation rig will be mobilised on site in May to accelerate the program.
Pacgold says results returned to date underpin confidence in the 2020 resource block model, with shallow gold zones encountered across numerous holes. Shallow gold zones were identified above the main resource estimate model.
The company has returned assays from around 60% of samples submitted.
Pacgold is a gold-focused explorer focused on advancing its portfolio of assets in North Queensland and South Australia.
