***NEWS RELEASE IS EXCELLENT***
SLAM delivers assays on Miminiska gold discovery
Jul 14, 2010 2:35:00 PM
Core Interval Assays 9.47 g/t Over 7.2 m and Includes 64.1 g/t Over 1.0 m
MIRAMICHI, NB, July 14 /CNW/ - (TSX-V:SXL) ("SLAM") is pleased to announce an intercept grading 64.1 g/t gold over 1.0 m (1.87 oz/ton over 3.3 ft) in diamond drill hole MM10-01. This high grade interval occurs within a 7.2 metre core interval that averages 9.47 g/t gold (0.276 oz/ton over 23.6 ft) starting at a depth of 147 metres. Visible gold was reported for this interval (news release 30 June 2010). This new high grade gold discovery occurs directly below a gold soil anomaly and is open in all directions.
Hole MM10-01 cut an additional intercept grading 19.7 g/t gold over 1.5 m (0.575 oz/ton over 4.9 ft) starting at a depth of 17.4 m. This occurs within a 3.8 m interval averaging 9.79 g/t gold (0.286 oz/ton over 12.5 ft). The second hole at Miminiska, MM10-02, drilled beneath hole MM10-01, intersected 3 m grading 1.76 g/t gold (0.05 oz/ton over 9.8 ft) at a depth of 48 m. This hole was designed to follow-up to a successful hole drilled by SLAM (5.97 g/tonne gold over 2.0 metres) in 2008.
These results follow hole KL10-19 at Keezhik Lake in which SLAM intersected 1.5 m grading 22.0 g/t gold (0.642 oz/ton gold over 5 ft) as reported 30 June 2010. The Keezhik and Miminiska gold properties are owned 100% by SLAM.
SLAM is very encouraged with gold intercepts in the first 3 holes of the 10 hole campaign. Assays are still pending from an additional 50 metres of core from MM10-01. Assays are also pending from 4 holes drilled on the Opikeigen Gold Joint Venture, a joint funded project owned 50/50 with (BXV on CNSX), as well as from 3 holes drilled on SLAM's wholly owned Reserve Creek gold project. Visible gold occurs in all 3 holes drilled at Reserve Creek.
The Fort Hope gold area is located east of the historic Pickle Lake gold camp where (TSE:PKL) recently announced successful drilling results (press release 23 March 2010). The Fort Hope and Pickle Lake areas are underlain by Uchi Subprovince rocks similar to the world-famous Red Lake gold mining camp.
The core intervals described above are drilled intervals. The true thicknesses are unknown. The weighted average for the 7.2 m interval was calculated at a grade of 9.47 g/t gold based upon uncut values with a cut-off grade of 0.6 g/t. Individual samples within this interval range from 0.18 to 64.2 g/t.
All drill cores were delivered from the drill sites to a facility in Fort Hope for logging and sampling. Selected cores were split or sawn with half retained for reference. Sampled halves were shipped to Act-Labs in Thunder Bay for gold assay. Standards and blanks were inserted in the sample batches to augment the Quality Assurance and Quality Control program of duplicates and standards utilized by the laboratory. Michael R. Taylor, P.Geo. President and CEO of SLAM and Director of Beatrix is the Qualified Person responsible for the technical information contained herein.
The drilling activities have been performed in consultation with Eabametoong First Nation ("EFN") in accordance with a recently signed Exploration Agreement. This Agreement calls for EFN and SLAM to work cooperatively to advance the gold potential of the Fort Hope area.
