Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 21, 2016) - Jaxon Minerals Inc. (TSXV: JAX) (FSE: 0U3)
("Jaxon" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the Company's plans.
Jaxon's immediate focus is aimed at advancing the newly acquired Price Creek high-grade gold-silver-zinc-lead massive sulphide
project located in north-central British Columbia, Canada. In 2017, Jaxon's planned exploration will further develop the
bonanza grade gold and silver areas, which also contain high percentage grades of zinc and lead in the numerous mineralized
zones exposed at surface. The property hosts assayed surface chip sample grades for silver up to 3,398 g/t at the MAX target, and
up to 22.7 g/t gold at the SPINE prospect (BC Geological Survey MINFILE Report 093M 027-219).
Previous work on Jaxon's 2,396 ha Price Creek Property indicates a geological and volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) ore
deposit setting similar to the shallow marine precious metal hydrothermal systems present at Barrick Gold's Eskay Creek Mine and at
Gold Corp's Equity Silver Mine. These two mines, located in British Columbia, remain Canada's richest examples of the bonanza grade
precious metal rich class of shallow marine style VMS deposits.
Upcoming work
Jaxon is now in the process of collecting and analyzing all data from past exploration programs. This includes the most recent
modern exploration campaign results from 2011-12, which the Company is integrating into a new comprehensive exploration model for
the property's two main targets - the MAX and the KNOLL.
Soil grid geochemistry survey results covering prospective areas distinct from the main targets significantly enlarge the near
surface potential for massive sulphide stratiform beds and their accompanying mineralized feeder zones. Established trenches will
be sampled and mapped. This will further define the diamond drill program designed to quantify the observed high-grade massive
stratiform and feeder polymetallic mineralization.
The Company also reports that it has re-submitted for assay sample 16-02, one of four grab samples taken on its due diligence
site visit to the property. (See news release dated November 2, 2016). Along with significant gold lead and zinc values, the sample
returned a silver value in excess of 1500 ppm (48.2 oz/t), which exceeds the upper limit of the assay method used.
