Russell Starr — Trillium Gold Mines President and CEO said: “With the recently completed acquisition of the Eastern Vision properties, the Panama Lake acquisition brings Trillium Gold’s consolidated land package along the Confederation Belt to over 58,400 hectares, bound by the Red Lake and LP Fault structures, positioning it as one of the most prospective exploration projects in the heart of the Red Lake mining district.”

As per the terms of the deal signed last month, Trillium Gold Mines will pay CAD 500,000 in cash and issue 1,000,000 of its shares to St. Anthony Gold Corp.

Trillium Gold Mines said that its geological team has started early exploration work at the Panama Lake gold project. The company said that permit applications for drilling and trenching are in progress and are likely to be obtained in early summer 2022.
