VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Radius Gold Inc. (TSX-V:RDU) is pleased to announce that the Company has commenced drilling at the Coyote Gold Project located North of Elko, Nevada.  The Company acquired a lease to option and purchase the property from Geologic Services Inc. in March of this year (see news release March 21, 2018).  The property is located on the Eastern flank of the Independence Valley, an area known for its prolific gold production.

The reverse circulation drill program will target deeply penetrating resistive structures with coincident rock and soil geochemical anomalies of antimony/mercury/arsenic and gold, hosted in brecciated surficial sinter deposits of a paleo hot spring.  A CSAMT survey conducted in August of this year defined a coherent 950m x 250m resistivity anomaly going to depth which is believed to represent a sheeted vein system, potentially gold-bearing.

An initial program of three to six drill holes targeting the potential mineralization 150m to 200m below surface will be conducted.  Results will be released once the program is complete.
