MAS Gold Corp. Discusses Potential of Its La Ronge Gold Belt Gold Assets with The Stock Day Podcast
SASKATOON, SK, March 7, 2023 /CNW/ - MAS Gold Corp. ("MAS Gold" or the "Company") (TSX.V: MAS) (OTCQB: MSGCF) (FSE: 63G) announces podcast interview with The Stock Day Podcast.
CEO of the Company, Jim Engdahl, joined Stock Day host Everett Jolly. Jolly began the interview by asking about the Company's background and current projects. Engdahl elaborated on how the Company acquired its numerous gold assets, which have grown to include the North Lake, Preview SW, Greywacke North, Contact Lake and Point gold deposits and the historically defined Elizabeth Lake copper-gold deposit. "The idea that Ron Netolitzky had when he formed the company in 2010 was to consolidate a string of properties located in Saskatchewan and create a whole new gold play," said Engdahl.
Jolly then asked about the history of gold resources in the La Ronge Gold Belt of Saskatchewan. "The only producing gold mine in Saskatchewan right now is the Seabee Gold Mine, which went into production in 1992 and is now being operated by SSR," explained Engdahl. "It has now mined out about 2 million ounces of gold and is producing at a rate of 120,000 ounces per year," he said. "That mine is about 40 kilometers from our closest property called Greywacke North, which has 155,000 ounces that we have drilled alone."
"What was MAS Gold Corp.'s original strategy?", asked Jolly. "It was our original strategy to consolidate properties along the La Ronge Gold Belt of Saskatchewan," said Engdahl. "Before I joined in January of 2021, the company had about 400,000 ounces; by the end of March we hope to be able to say that we will have at least 1.3 million ounces to 1.4 million ounces when our new resource calculations are completed," he continued. "However, the exciting part about the belt is that none of these properties have been drilled past 300 meters."
The conversation then turned to the Company's strategy and revenues as they continue to develop their gold assets. "There are no revenues at the moment, we are still in the planning stages," said Engdahl, adding that over the next 6 to 12 months the Company will continue to gather economic data for their resources to determine their next steps. "Our Greywacke property could be put into production on a small scale because of the excellent metallurgy we have for that location," added Engdahl.
"We have another property in the area that is still a target for acquisition and it is a past-producing mine," shared Engdahl. "This acquisition would establish complete ownership of the belt and would be an exceptional long-term gold play with the potential to be one of the best in Canada as that further develops."
"What do you expect to see over the next 6 to 12 months?", asked Jolly. "We are going to be doing some serious planning, while also looking for potential partners to help us take it to the next level as there will be a reasonable amount of capital required to do that," said Engdahl, adding that the Company will continue to strategize and gather data from their assets.
To close the interview, Engdahl encouraged listeners and shareholders to keep up-to-date on the Company's current and upcoming projects as they continue to grow and advance their gold assets along the La Ronge Gold Belt in Saskatchewan.
