Nevada Gold Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCBB: NGHI), a mineral exploration company focused on identifying and developing large-scale gold deposits in Nevada, announced today that the Company has commenced exploration drilling at its Tempo prospect, located on the southern extension of the north-south trending Rabbit Creek Gold Trend, a prolific Nevada gold belt containing at least 80 million known ounces of gold.
The first phase of the drilling program for Tempo will consist of testing envisioned structures with four to ten vertical reverse circulation drill holes. Drilling contractor, Rimrock Drilling Co., will drill the holes to a maximum depth of 1,500 feet, and assay results from the holes will be evaluated by the Company to determine the second phase of the drilling program next spring.
The Company controls 206 contiguous lode mining claims, totaling approximately 4,000 acres, in the Tempo property. The land position effectively controls an entire district-scale exploration opportunity with all the ingredients that could indicate several large, +1 million-ounce, deposit discoveries.
