VANCOUVER — Columbus Gold (TSX: CGT; US-OTC: CBGDF) had a busy to start to the year courtesy of a recently-released resource update at its Eastside gold project in Nevada and a pending feasibility study (FS) at its Montagne d’Or joint venture in French Guiana. The company has ounces in the ground, and it recently announced a pair of exploration programs geared toward near-deposit discovery and resource expansion. Columbus has advanced Montagne d’Or at a breakneck pace after entering into an option agreement with Nordgold (LON: NORD) in late 2013. The Russian miner is set to earn a 55.01% interest in the project by completing the FS after spending US$30 million in working expenditures over the past three years. Montagne d’Or is part of the 190-sq.-km Paul Isnard project, which is comprised of eight mining concessions roughly 180 km west of the capital, Cayenne. “When we entered into the agreement with Nordgold we instituted a very short window in terms of timing for the resource estimates and economic studies,” comments chairman and CEO Robert Giustra during an interview.
