Great Bear Resources’ exploration team have been awarded the 2018 Bernie Schnieders Discovery of the Year Award for the discovery of high-grade gold zones at its 100 percent owned Dixie Property in Red Lake, Ontario, Canada.
The award, presented by the Northwestern Ontario Prospectors Association (NWOPA), recognizes an exceptional discovery in Northwestern Ontario during the previous calendar year. It was presented on April 2 to Great Bear Resources at the annual awards banquet hosted during the 2019 Ontario Prospectors Exploration Showcase in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
“We would like to sincerely thank the NWOPA for receiving this honour, and look forward to expanding on our exciting discoveries at the Dixie property through 2019 and 2020. We have been fortunate to receive strong industry support for our exploration work over recent years, including an exploration grant during 2017/2018 in the amount of $100,000, as part of the Ontario Prospector Association’s Junior Exploration Assistance Program, which partially funded our discovery drill program,” said Chris Taylor, president and CEO of Great Bear.
