QUEBEC – Vancouver-based Integra Gold Corp. finds itself in a bit of a dillema at its Lamaque gold project in Val d'Or. After the site for the Triangle deposit was chosen, two condemnation holes intersected considerable gold mineralization 200 metres west of the present resource model.
Hole TMC-14-10 returned an uncut grade of 101.85 g/t Au, or 47.58 g/t Au over 1.60 metres using a 1.00 g/t Au cut-off. The same hole returned 14.31 g/t over 1.50 metres and 6.95 g/t over 0.70 metre as well as several other short intervals in the 2.00 to 4.00 g/t range. Hole TMC-14-01 returned 3.02 g/t Au over 9.00 metres, including 4.10 g/t over 4.40 metres.
This is the second time Integra has drilled substantial mineralization beyond the Triangle deposit resource. In 2013, drilling intersected 13.29 g/t Au over 7.0 metres, including 22.11 g/t over 4.0 metres, 175 metres to the south of the Triangle deposit.
The company's website at IntegraGold.com contains detailed information about all the zones Integra is testing at the Lamaque project.

What is a condemnation hole? -anything to do with aboriginal rights.

A condemnation hole is drilled on a likely site for infrastructure to test that there is no mineralization of economic potential where you might want to put the dry or mill. In this case the site for an exploration ramp was tested.
