Linear Gold in Brazil
Recent property acquisitions with excellent potential for new gold discoveries make Brazil Linear Gold’s strategic operational focus.
Drilling is scheduled to begin during February 2008 on Linear’s most advanced project, El Filão. Soil and rock sampling is underway at the Trairao, Apiacas and Serrinha properties with anticipated drill programs to follow. In addition to these four properties, Linear is continuing the process of reviewing a number of other gold-focused acquisition opportunities in Brazil.
Linear Gold in Mexico
Linear has a fully funded joint venture with Kinross Gold for the Ixhuatán Project which is the host of the 1.2 million ounce Campamento gold deposit. Linear believes the Ixhuatán Project has the potential to host new gold deposits.
Linear Gold in the Dominican Republic
Linear has a fully funded joint venture agreement with Everton Resources for the three properties it owns near Barrick’s world class Pueblo Viejo gold deposit (15+ million ounces). Site exploration programs are funded by Everton to the completion of a feasibility study.
