A District-Scale Gold Opportunity in Ireland
Conroy Gold and Natural Resources PLC holds a district-scale gold portfolio on a transatlantic structural corridor running from Canada through Ireland to Scotland. Its 100%-owned Irish licences contain two parallel trends, Orlock Bridge and Skullmartin, spanning over 95 km of gold-in-soil anomalism. The orogenic mineralisation sits in folded Ordovician–Silurian turbidites within a Caledonian accretionary prism and is controlled by northeast–southwest fault zones and tract boundaries.
Of eight advanced targets, five show gold in bedrock. Work is focused on Clontibret and Clay Lake, the only two with over 5,000 m of drilling. Clontibret hosts an initial 517,000 oz Au resource, open in all directions and at depth. Metallurgical test work and a preliminary economic assessment support its viability. Its geology resembles Fosterville, which points to high-grade potential at depth. The Company also aims to link Clay Lake's stockwork to Clontibret, 7 km away. On the Skullmartin trend, a 30 km corridor includes results of up to 123 g/t Au at Creenkill.
