New Results in Bold.

 

Gold mineralization is associated with quartz, ±carbonate, veins, pyrite and faults within what appears to be a moderately steep, southeast trending structural zone hosted by a sequence of fine clastic metasedimentary rocks, proximal to the contact with the intermediate to mafic metavolcanic rocks, at the North Hixon zone. The zone constitutes a blind discovery encountered at the bottom of QGQ24-01, while attempting to intersect the source of magnetite-pyrite bearing float which contained 9.8 g/t Au.

 

Company president and CEO, J. Frank Callaghan stated “This new 263.10m (863.2ft) blind discovery represents a new mineralized trend on the Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Property. This is truly a significant intercept in greenfield exploration.”

 

Logging and sampling of QGQ24-08 are complete down to the hole’s final depth of 712.01m, with assays pending below 324.96m.
