Trident Resources (ROCK.V) began an airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey over the Reindeer Gold Project in the La Ronge Gold Belt (LRGB) of Northern Saskatchewan on Aug. 17, it said Tuesday.
The 6,600-line km airborne survey will be completed by Special Projects Inc, said the company.
The company expects the radiometric data and the aeromagnetic data to help define targets for subsequent ground-truthing and future drilling, it added.
The company also said drilling and field exploration are underway at its Contact Lake and Preview target areas at the Contact Lake Gold Project, with the 20,000-meter summer drill program at Contact Lake almost halfway done, it said.
The company is also conducting a comprehensive soil sampling and prospecting program across Contact Lake and the adjacent Preview project area, it added.
