"Visible gold was found on many drilled rock cores. A ton of ore at a depth of 2,000 meters contained up to 138 grams of gold," said ore exploration expert Chen Zhulin.

Deputy Director of the Geological Bureau Liu Yongjun stated that advanced exploration technologies, such as 3D geological modeling, were used at the Wangu deposit. Gold was also discovered during drilling in peripheral zones of the site, opening up promising opportunities.

It is worth noting that the current global gold price stands at $2,687 per troy ounce.
