GOLD BUGSMaritime is conducting additional sampling throughout the property and has identified gold mineralization contained in in the TSF #2 tailings pond (Figure 2, Table 1) where material grading between 1.19 grams per tonne ("gpt") and 31.1 gpt gold was identified. Further sampling is underway to define the extent of this material and determine the potential for processing through the Pine Cove mill. The material stored in this pond includes fines collected from the wash plant operated by Shoreline Aggregates Inc. which processes mine waste rock from the Pine Cove mine into aggregates for shipment to international customers. Recent sampling of the wash plant fines confirmed the presence of high-grade gold assaying 11.4 gpt. Maritime and Shoreline are investigating the installation of a gravity recovery circuit to the wash plant to collect any gold on a more permanent basis.
Only 11.4 gpt in the wash plant fines ! What a waste ! BCRNW
