LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / March 4, 2019 / Patriot Gold Corp ("Patriot") (CSE:PGOL) (OTC QB: PGOL) today announced that it has completed an initial phase of drilling exploration at the Windy Peak Project in Churchill County, Nevada, commencing in September of 2018. The Windy Peak deposit is currently interpreted as a low-sulfidation, epithermal gold deposit located marginal to and likely associated with a caldera ring fracture zone. Intersections between ring fractures and regional normal faults in the Windy Peak Project area are particularly favorable exploration targets, as they offer the unique combination of fluid conduits and structural controls known to concentrate high-grade mineralization. Gold mineralization at Windy Peak is well documented, both through reported historic production of roughly 300 ounces in the 1970's and subsequent rotary drilling exploration carried out by a variety of operators in the 1980's and 1990's.
