Exciting news from Quimbaya Gold (CSE QIM / WKN A3DT3C)! The company has announced that it has ordered a second drill rig for the Tahami South gold project in Colombia. As a rule, such a step is not taken without good reason…
The company, which Goldinvest has been reporting on since the beginning of the year, is systematically exploring its Tahami project (100% Quimbaya), which is directly adjacent to the Segovia property owned by its neighbor Aris Mining, which now has a market capitalization of more than CAD 2.7 billion! The bet here is that the gold mineralization observed and mined at Segoiva also extends to Quimbaya’s project area – for which CEO Alexandre P. Boivin’s company has already discovered initial evidence at surface.

Now, it has just been announced that Quimbaya has ordered a second drill rig to accelerate the drilling program, which is initially planned to cover 4,000 drill meters. Of course, the aim is to take advantage of the positive environment in Colombia and the currently extremely hot gold market. On the other hand, Mr. Boivin also pointed out in today’s press release that “initial positive observations” had been made at Tahami South during the drilling program.
Of course, we can only guess what the Quimbaya CEO means by this – favorable mineralization, pathfinder elements for gold? (note: pure speculation) – but we consider the decision to use a second drill rig to be a promising sign. We will definitely stay on the ball!
