North Bay Resources Inc. (NBRI) Issues Ruby Mine Progress Report

SKIPPACK, PA, United States, via eTeligis Inc., 05/27/2014 - - North Bay Resources Inc. (OTCQB: NBRI) ("North Bay" or the "Company") is pleased to issue the following progress report of the work ongoing at the Ruby Mine in Sierra County, California.

 

The Big Bend raise is expected to be completed by the end of next week. Longhole probing in advance of the raise has successfully tested the ground conditions in front and the sides of the work face, and the crew has been able to verify that the raise will punch through straight ahead into a stable section of the Black Channel where the ground support has been confirmed to be good. Upon completion, the raise will have been driven for 145 feet at a 55 degree incline, from the end of the Contractor's Drift and the Ruby Tunnel haulageway directly into the Black Channel just north of the Big Bend area.

 

In other news, a proposal from a drilling contractor has recently been accepted, and a new drill is tentatively set to be deployed on-site the week of June 9, 2014 once the final details and logistics are worked out. Over the past several weeks the crew has installed dozens of drill stations at key locations within the Ruby Tunnel to improve the efficacy of the new drill. The goal of the drilling program is to test and verify the depth and width of 7 new mining targets identified as a result of recent geophysical surveys and geological mapping. The close proximity of these targets above the existing Ruby Adit makes them all compelling targets for near-term production, as any one of these targets that proves out can be placed into production relatively quickly. 

 

We also report that over the past few weeks an additional 3,500 feet of new 4" steel pipe has been installed to further improve the compressed air capacity within the Ruby tunnel. This completes the replacement and upgrade of the compressed airline with a total of 5,500 feet of new airline, marking a significant improvement of the Ruby Tunnel's underground infrastructure.
