08:29 AM EST, 11/12/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Soma Gold Corp. ( SMAGF ) , which lost 3.3% yesterday, announced earlier Tuesday initial results from the 2024 diamond drill program targeting the 'Venus Gap' at the Cordero Mine on the Bagre Project in central Colombia.

A statement noted 10 diamond drill holes, totaling 1,476m of underground drilling, were targeted to infill a gap in the historic drilling north of the Venus Vein. Previously, mining on the Venus Vein encountered a complex zone of mafic dykes and lower-grade, thin anastomosing quartz veins and was terminated. The drilling results in this release extend the strike of the vein to the northwest and down dip to the northeast.
