The Scottish-Irish Gold Hosted Dalradian Supergroup
- Economic gold has been found in Ireland and Scotland, the most significant being Curraghinalt and Cavanacaw in Northern Ireland and Connonish in Scotland
- These deposits lie within the same geological trend: ‘The Dalradian Supergroup’
- The Dalradian Terrane is highly prospective for orogenic vein hosted gold mineralisation
- GreenOre geologists identified the North East of Scotland to have significant potential for gold mineralisation
- ‘A Crown Estate Option to a Mining Lease’ was obtained in 2013 by GreenOre surrounding an historic gold locality near in Aberdeenshire
- The Parthshire landholding was obtained in 2018 and also sits within this trend
Gold in the Southern Uplands
- Gold has been well known in the Southern Uplands for centuries, the most famous locality being at Leadhills, South Lanarkshire
- Following a review and investigation of all known gold occurrences in Scotland, a locality in South Ayrshire was identified as having significant potential for a large scale gold deposit
An Historic Gold Resource Revisited
- The ‘Kerry Road’ deposit has never had an official resource calculation despite over 9000m worth of drilling
Going Forward
- Further Drilling Ayrshire
- Develop new drill targets Aberdeenshire
- Resource calculation/metalurgy/prefeasibility Ross-shire
- Ground surveys to develop drill targets Perthshire
- Review and investigate other prospects in Scotland, with an eye on Europe
