New gold zone within the Limon Complex: Portal Target

Darren Hall, President and CEO of Calibre, stated: “The Limon Mining Complex has produced more than 3 million oz of gold and continues to present a number of significant opportunities for discovery and resource growth. As underground development at the Atravesada deposit progresses we are pleased with 2021 drill results and believe there is good potential for additional resources that will contribute toward development of new reserves. We are also encouraged by results of recent drilling below the Tigra opencast which indicate good potential for additional resource growth. Finally, results of first pass drilling at the new Portal vein target located approximately 5 km northwest of the Limon opencast, again demonstrate the potential for continued discoveries to help drive production and extend mine life.”
