*previously reported: all holes are uncut and over core length; core length is estimated 50-90% of true width; 1 g/t Au multiplied by 0.0291666 equals troy ounces per short ton (to convert from metres to feet multiply by 3.2808). NSV: no significant values. VG: visible gold
Robert J. Kasner President and CEO, commented, "We are pleased to announce that the down plunge drilling indicated that the Omega Deposit alteration and mineralization in the 1-2 Zones continue down to 1000 m vertical depth. In all three deep holes the typical for the Omega Deposit albite-sericite-silica-ankerite-pyrite alteration assemblage was present in a broader chloritized tholeiite package interlayered with localized talc-chlorite and green carbonate intervals of ultramafic origin.
Drilling of the Lake Zone (LZ) gave mixed results. A few mineralized intersections of interest were identified, which were hosted in altered syenite and conglomerate, generally continuous and dipping to the West. No further drilling is planned for the LZ.
Further drilling will now concentrate in the area of the potential open pit, as recommended in the recently completed 43-101 resource estimate, which contains an Inferred resource of 3.8 million tonnes of 2.50 g/t totaling 306,100 ounces of gold. AMC Consultants Ltd recommends an additional 1800 m of infill drilling needed to close apparent gaps in the 50 x 50 grid and possibly update the confidence level of the deposit from Inferred to Indicated. More holes need to be drilled to further outline and increase the Inferred resource below the potential open pit which contains 1.2 million tonnes of 4.33 g/t containing 166,000 ounces of gold."
QA/QC was followed in sampling the core. The core is sawed in half for sampling. Standards, blanks and duplicates were inserted into the stream of core samples every 20 metres. The core was assayed at Swastika Laboratories Ltd. at Swastika, ON using 30 gram samples. The core samples were analyzed using the fire assay method and AA finish. Fred Sharpley, P.Geo is the Qualified Person defined by NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information presented in this news release for the Omega Property.
