Orogen Gold (LON:ORE) has extended its target zone at the Mutsk gold exploration project in Armenia following geophysical surveying, reported the Proactive Investors website of Great Britain.

Chief executive Ed Slowey said the “very successful” program has taken the target to about 2.5 kilometers, and it remains “open” to the north.

“We will now plan for drill testing of this target, as well as extensions of gold mineralisation encountered further south in earlier drill phases, with drilling due to commence shortly,” he said.
