Exploration firm Plato Gold has intersected gold mineralisation that widens and increases the overall grade of the Main zone at its Nordeau West property in Quebec, the company has announced.

The returns were recovered from the last three drill holes to be completed on the site this year, the firm added.

Intercepts from these areas include an intersection graded at 5.66 g/t gold over 8.50 metres, which included a separate section of 10.08 g/t gold over 2.5 metres.

Other results from the drilling include gold values of 15.25 g/t gold over 0.90 metres, 14.45 g/t gold over 0.75 metres and 2.49 g/t gold over 1.85 metres.

Plato said the intersection of wide, lower grade zones in two of the holes - designated as NW-08-04 and NW-08-05 - indicate "significant up-side potential" for developing commercial-standard mineral resources from the area.

Nordeau West is one of a number of projects Plato Gold is pursuing in the Canadian province of Quebec. Other properties include the Horseshoe, Vauquelin and Hop O'My Thumb properties.
