[{"type":"text","content":"Bravada to Mobilize Drill Rig to Test the Feeder Target at Wind Mountain Gold/Silver Project, NevadaVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 10, 2020) - Bravada Gold Corporation (TSXV: BVA) (FSE: BRTN) (OTCQB: BGAVF) (the \"Company\" or \"Bravada\") announces that a drill rig is expected to mobilize to the Company's 100% owned Wind Mountain gold/silver project in northwestern Nevada after the US Thanksgiving holiday. Three or four reverse-circulate drill holes are planned to depths ranging from 360m to 580m as the first relatively deep test of the interpreted feeder zone of this large hydrothermal system.The Feeder target is interpreted as the deeper source area for gold/silver-bearing hydrothermal fluids that resulted in the shallower disseminated gold/silver open-pit deposit previously mined by Amax Gold and the remaining Resources defined by Bravada. Evidence for the target concept is from Amax's shallow condemnation drill holes and Bravada's geological mapping, geochemical sampling, magnetic geophysics, and nearby 2017/18 deep drill holes. Disseminated gold and silver mineralization on the Wind Mountain property is exposed over a strike length of +6km, indicating a robust gold system that spread laterally over a large area within permeable host sediments; however, a high-grade \"feeder\" zone has not been discovered to date and that is the objective of this campaign.Figure 1To view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/5343/67940_ae8c4d99f472a88c_001full.jpgIn other project news, assays for diamond drilling completed at Bravada's Highland gold/silver project are still pending as assay labs continue to be backed up due to Covid-19 issues and delayed drilling programs that are now underway, which have overwhelmed assay labs. Assays now are expected in December.Field work was initiated in late October at the Company's 100% owned SF/HC gold project. Initial work included geologic mapping, rock-chip sampling, and claim staking. SF is a Carlin-type gold property located along the Battle Mountain-Eureka Gold trend, approximately 6 kilometers east of Barrick's Goldrush/Red Hill development-stage gold mine in the prolific Cortez district.About Wind MountainThe Wind Mountain Property is in northwestern Nevada approximately 160km northeast of Reno in a sparsely populated regi...
