North Bay Resources Inc (NBRI): Ruby Gold Project Progress Report
PrintAlert
North Bay Resources (OTCBB:NBRI)
Intraday Stock Chart
Today : Thursday 9 February 2012

North Bay Resources Inc. (OTCBB: NBRI) ("North Bay" or the "Company") is pleased to issue the following shareholder update on the status of current operations at the Ruby Gold Project.

The Ruby Tunnel rehab project continues to move forward. As a result of the mild winter thus far, work has proceeded unabated into 2012, and we continue to make steady progress.

At the present time, our crew is now retimbering the area around the Wolf Vein workings, a key location 3,000 feet within the Ruby tunnel. The Wolf Vein is a quartz vein deposit known to be hosted in the bedrock underlying the intersection of the Bald Mountain and Deep Rock Creek Channels, and it will be one of our primary developmental targets after mining operations begin. To date, the crew has replaced more than 30,000 board feet of mining timber, and installed nearly 3,000 feet of new ventilation duct. We have now rehabilitated and advanced approximately halfway through the Ruby Tunnel towards our primary mining target, which is the "Big Bend" section of the Black Channel, the location where C.L. Best extracted the world famous Ruby nuggets, and the section of the mine where Best was forced to stop mining in 1942 by order of the US Government during World War II.

As always, we will continue to keep shareholders informed of our operational progress as we proceed forward towards completion of the tunnel rehab project and the start of production.
