Hublogolarge2_copy

  • Entered into three separate option agreements with an arm’s length third party to acquire the Glitter King, Silver Side and Red Tusk properties
  • all located in British Columbia, Canada
  • Part of the Corporation’s strategy of adding shareholder value by enlarging its gold and silver property portfolio with high quality prospective properties acquired at depressed levels

CARDSTON, ALBERTA–(Sept. 14, 2016) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:AMK) (“American Creek” or “the Corporation”) is pleased to report that it has entered into three separate option agreements with an arm’s length third party to acquire the Glitter King, Silver Side and Red Tusk properties, all located in British Columbia, Canada. These newest acquisitions are part of the Corporation’s strategy of adding shareholder value by enlarging its gold and silver property portfolio with high quality prospective properties acquired at depressed levels in anticipation of a strengthening precious metals market.

Glitter King Property

The Glitter King is located on the eastern side of Pitt Island approximately 90 km south of Prince Rupert, BC. The property is part of the southern extension of the Alexander Terrane which is host to numerous significant massive sulphide deposits such as Windy Craggy, Greens Creek, the Annette/Gravina Island deposits and the Anyox deposits.

Past work on the property by Devlin (1983) and Bradley et al (1987) resulted in the discovery of a massive sulphide showing up to 4 meters thick with a strike length of 1,800 meters and exposed over a vertical dimension of at least 170 meters. The sulphide sheets are typically composed of 40-80% sulphides with copper, gold, silver, lead and zinc. An average of 10 channel samples taken across the thicker, central part of the massive sulphide zone by BP-Selco produced: 2.32% Cu, 52 g/t Ag, 0.48g/t Au, 0.57% Pb and 2.53% Zn. Devlin (1983) reported values as high as 7.8% Cu, 126 g/t Ag, 8.91 g/t Au, 8.7% Zn and 1.6% Pb.

Silver Side Property

The Silver Side property is located in the Kamloops mining division approximately 20 km north of Clearwater, BC and approximately 50 km west of Imperial Metal’s Ruddock Creek lead/zinc deposit.

Exploration work on the Silver Side in 2010 resulted in the discovery of three new bedrock showings of very high grade mineralization of 75-558 g/t Ag, 12-40% Pb and 12-40% Zn. The mineralized zone has been traced over 100 meters on surface.

Red Tusk Property

The Red Tusk property is located in southwestern BC approximately 12 km west of Squamish.

The property bears similarities to VMS deposits such as the nearby past producing Britannia Mine which over nearly 70 years produced more copper than any other mine in BC. The Red Tusk is also noted as one of the mineral occurrences in BC which exhibits some of the characteristics of the famous Eskay Creek-Type of deposits.

Anomalous gold and silver values from the Silver Spider zone included a grab sample of rhyolite that assayed 0.466 oz/ton gold, 166.12 oz/ton silver, 20.06% zinc, 17.89% lead and 0.12% copper.

A 17 meter long trench excavated on the Cirque zone included assays up to 1.47% copper, 7.63% zinc, 1.74% lead, 2.25 oz/ton silver and 0.12 oz/ton gold.

Durango Samples 79 Outcrops at Nemaska, Quebec $DGO.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:54 AM on Tuesday, September 13th, 2016

  • Pegmatites were discovered and mapped and some samples sent for assay from its group of lithium claims located near Nemaska, Quebec
  • On the West block of claims, a few outcrops were located close to the southern boundary of Nemaska Lithium boundary and were made up of granite.

Vancouver, BC / September 13, 2016 – Durango Resources Inc. (TSX.V-DGO), (the “Company” or “Durango”) reports that further to its news release of September 8, 2016, pegmatites were discovered and mapped and some samples sent for assay from its group of lithium claims located near Nemaska, Quebec.

The pegmatites were discovered on the North, South and Eastern blocks of Durango’s claims in the recently completed program. On the West block of claims, a few outcrops were located close to the southern boundary of Nemaska Lithium boundary and were made up of granite.

Durango’s professional exploration team made a total of two hundred outcrop discoveries on its four claim blocks. The outcrops were examined by rock breaking and hand lens observation. From the 200 outcrop discoveries, a total of seventy-nine were sampled and sent for assay. Eight blank samples were also added and sent in for assay as Quality Assurance and Quality Control.

Nemaska Lithium Inc. announced on September 6, 2016 that drilling southwest of the deposit intercepted lithium rich pegmatite dykes at shallow depth. With the abundance of historical work completed on Nemaska’s immediate deposit area, Nemaska Lithium has proven that step out drilling from the known deposit area has discovered lithium rich pegmatite dykes below the overburden.

Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, comments, “Nemaska Lithium’s success on the drill intercepts announced on September 6, 2016 may suggest the pegmatite dykes beneath overburden are pervasive, or without interruption. Drill intercepts were made where no pegmatite dykes are outcropping, so Durango plans to plot the current drilling data to derive any potential projections onto Durango’s neighboring claims.”

Durango expects results from its program to be released in the near future and will provide a news release once the results have been processed.

The technical contents of this release were approved by Mr. Donald Theberge, PEng., MBA, a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The property has not been subject of a National Instrument 43-101 report.

American Creek’s JV Partner Tudor Gold Corp. Trenches 30,200 G/T Silver at the Electrum Project $AMK.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:12 AM on Tuesday, September 13th, 2016

  • Released initial results from the blasted bedrock trenching program being conducted on the Electrum property
  • 12 representative specimens collected from the structure averages 3,461.92 grams (111.30 oz) silver per tonne and 2.24 grams gold per tonne

CARDSTON, ALBERTA–(Sept. 13, 2016) – American Creek Resources Ltd (TSX VENTURE:AMK) (“the Corporation” or “American Creek”) is pleased to announce that Tudor Gold Corp. (“Tudor”) has released initial results from the blasted bedrock trenching program being conducted on the Electrum property in the “Golden Triangle” of NW British Columbia. The program has expanded the high-grade silver-gold mineralization at the New Blast Zone.

The Electrum project is a joint venture between project operator Tudor (60%) and American Creek (40%).

The surface blasting program was started after the completion of the 2016 Electrum drill program, from which complete assay results are still pending and will be released once received and compiled. In total 19 drill holes, totaling 1,406 meters were completed. A total of 1,492 core samples were collected and assayed. Standard sample interval was one meter with 0.25m sub samples collected to test contacts and anomalous intervals. A specialized diamond coring drill was utilized which has the capability to drill flat holes and provides the ability to drill targets of interest with more precision. Low angle drill geometry allows Tudor to take advantage of mountainside geometry and follow the surface exposed mineralization down dip.

Twelve representative specimens were collected across a central vein system on the New Blast Zone. It is approximately 5 m wide and currently exposed for 15 meters along strike. The vein system is open in both directions and at depth. The central axis of the vein system is infilled with a fine-grained blackish, blue-grey mineralization. The northern contact of which is a 0.5m wide sharp edged quartz fragments in a foliated sulphide-quartz-carbonate matrix. The sulphides are pyrite, pyrrhotite, with thin galena/silver seams. The twelve representative specimens collected from the structure averages 3,461.92 grams (111.30 oz) silver per tonne and 2.24 grams gold per tonne. An 8 cm wide silver sulphide core seam returned 30,200 grams (1,065.3 oz) silver per tonne.

Blast trenching is now being conducted on the Shiny Cliff Zone. It has exposed mineralization which is similar in nature to that at the New Blast Zone. Blast rock samples from the Shiny Cliff area have been sent in for analysis. Trenching and sampling is ongoing to see if the mineralization connects between the Shiny Cliff and New Blast.

Based on the results, Tudor intends on applying for a permit from the BC Ministry of Energy & Mines to remove a bulk sample of mineralized material from the Electrum property. The bulk sample program is intended to investigate the metallurgical properties and determine mineralized grades.

Walter Storm, President and CEO of Tudor stated: “We are very pleased with the results of the work on the Electrum this summer as we have increased the known mineralized gold and silver zones.”

Darren Blaney, President and CEO of American Creek stated: “As more work is conducted at Electrum, the mineralized area continues to impress. Tudor’s plan to conduct a bulk sample program opens up the real possibility of a revenue stream from recoverable silver and gold.”

The Electrum project (which includes the historic East Gold mine) is located approximately 25 km south of Pretium’s Brucejack gold mine and approximately 20 km north of the past producing Premier gold/silver mine. The Electrum shares similar geology with both the Brucejack and the Premier. The Electrum is road accessible and is only 45 km from world- class concentrate shipping port facilities located in Stewart.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

Analytical work for trench specimens is being carried out by Actlabs Kamloops, (Accredited Laboratory No. 790). Quality assurance and quality control programs include the use of analytical blanks and standards and duplicates in addition to the labs own internal quality assurance program.

All specimens were first analyzed according to the following procedures.

1 — gold Au (0.005 – 10 ppm) by 30g Fire Assay / AA where Au >3 g/t, automatically analyse a new 250g reject split for Au by 50g Fire Assay / Gravimetric finish
2 — Ag (3 – 10,000 g/t) by 30g Fire Assay / Gravimetric finish
3 — Assay Grade, 0.5g Aqua Regia (Partial) Digestion with ICP-OES analysis for the following four elements and detection limits: As (0.01%), Cu (0.001%), Pb (0.003%), Zn (0.001%)

All samples were then treated by “Gold by Metallic Screen Fire Assay”. This entails a representative 1000g of pulverized sample sieved at 100 mesh (150 micron), with assays performed on the entire +100 mesh fraction and two splits of the -100 mesh fraction. A final assay is calculated based on the weight of each fraction.

The Qualified Person for the Electrum exploration program is Alex Burton, P. Eng., P. Geo. for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.

American Creek is also part of a JV agreement with Tudor and Teuton Resources Corp. on the Treaty Creek project immediately north of Seabridge Gold’s KSM project, also located in the “Golden Triangle”. Tudor is currently conducting a diamond drilling program at Treaty Creek.

Of note is a quote from the recent 2014 – Nelson/Kyba – British Columbia Geological Survey report : Structural and stratigraphic control of porphyry and related mineralization in the Treaty Glacier – KSM – Brucejack – Stewart trend of western Stikinia….”One of the most important trends of northwestern British Columbia extends from near the town of Stewart north to the Treaty Glacier.” Both the Electrum and Treaty Creek projects are located within this described mineralized trend.

American Creek is also conducting a field program at its 100% owned Gold Hill property located in the Boulder Creek watershed – part of the historic Wildhorse River gold rush that took place east of Fort Steele, BC.

American Creek Resources Ltd. is a Canadian junior mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral deposits within the Province of British Columbia, Canada.

Data: All China’s new power demand met by wind and solar last year $HPQ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:39 AM on Thursday, September 8th, 2016

  • China dramatically increased the portion of its electricity generated from wind and solar in 2015
  • Growth in the two forms of power alone exceeding the rise in the country’s total electricity demand.

China dramatically increased the portion of its electricity generated from wind and solar in 2015, with the growth in the two forms of power alone exceeding the rise in the country’s total electricity demand.

China: Six little known facts about the country’s solar and wind boom

New data collated by Greenpeace shows that the country’s electricity consumption rose 0.5% last year, from 5522 TWh (terawatt hours) to 5550 TWh.

Wind and solar comfortably met this new demand, producing 186.3 TWh and 38.3 TWh of electricity in 2015, compared to 153.4 TWh and 23.3 TWh the year before. That’s a dramatic increase: 21% and 64%, respectively.

Lauri Ch

To give those numbers more context, China’s increase in power generation from wind and solar in 2015 (48 TWh) alone was twice Ireland’s entire electricity demand the previous year (24 TWh).

Half UK energy needs

In fact, Chinese wind alone could have met more than half the UK’s entire energy needs in 2015 (304 TWh).

The expansion of renewable energy generation was made possible by China vastly increasing its wind and solar capacity in 2015, up 28% and 54% respectively on 12 months previously. In total, the country made up nearly half of the world’s new solar and wind capacity last year.

Lauri chart 2

Coal use falls

The increased use of renewable energy, together with a marked economic shift away from heavy industry sectors, has meant that coal use in the country has dropped for a third year in a row, though it is still the biggest source of global CO2 emissions.

Last week, China announced that it was ratifying the Paris climate agreement, alongside the United States, in a move widely hailed as historic.

With the American presidential election now just two months away, it remains to be seen whether the States will be able to catch up in the race to lead the post-fossil fuels global economy.

Eloro Resources Ltd. Files NI 43-101 Technical Report on the La Victoria Gold/Silver Property, Ancash, Peru $TTC.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:44 AM on Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

  • Technical Report was filed as one of the terms precedent to the acquisition of 100% of La Victoria from Tartisan
  • Technical Report incorporates results of Eloro’s recent geophysical survey and surface mapping programs

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Sept. 7, 2016) – Eloro Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ELO)(FRANKFURT:P2Q) (Eloro“) and Tartisan Resources Corp. (CSE:TTC) (“Tartisan”) are pleased to announce that Eloro has filed a National Instrument (“NI”) 43-101 Technical Report (“Technical Report”) authored by Mr. Luc Pigeon, M.Sc., P.Geo., on the La Victoria Gold/Silver Property (“La Victoria” or the “Property”) in Huandoval District, Pallasca Province, Ancash Department, Peru. The Technical Report was filed as one of the terms precedent to the acquisition of 100% of La Victoria from Tartisan (see News Release dated August 5, 2016). Mr. Pigeon, P.Geo., is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and has managed or participated in all exploration programs on the Property since 2012.

The Technical Report incorporates results of Eloro’s recent geophysical survey and surface mapping programs (see press release June 7, 2016), managed by Senior Technical Advisor Dr. Bill Pearson, P.Geo. The geophysical survey was overseen by Dr. Chris Hale, P.Geo. of Intelligent Exploration, Guelph, Ontario, Canada, while a property-wide lithological, structural and alteration mapping program was managed by well-known Bolivian economic geologist Dr. Osvaldo Arce, La Paz, Bolivia.

“This NI 43-101 Technical Report is a major step forward in the understanding of the La Victoria Gold/Silver Property,” said Eloro CEO Mr. Tom Larsen, “Results of the new geophysical and geological mapping and sampling programs combined with results of historical work have allowed us to select a number of very prospective targets to test in the upcoming diamond drill program.”

Four principal mineralized zones are identified on the Property: San Markito, Rufina, Victoria and Victoria South. The Rufina and San Markito zones are the most advanced targets and are recommended for drilling whereas the Victoria and Victoria South zones are at an early exploration stage. In general, mineralization occurs within breccias and veins that contain significant gold and silver concentrations and trace element characteristics that are compatible with epithermal deposits especially the low sulphidation type.

A two-part Phase I exploration program is recommended. The first part is budgeted at US$250,000 and includes permits, road work and drill pad construction for the diamond drill program, with detailed followup mapping, sampling and geophysical surveys. The Part 2 drill program is budgeted at US$850,000 and includes 3,000m of diamond drilling at San Markito and Rufina. Eloro has initiated discussions with several drill contractors in Peru for the Phase I drilling program.

Exploration Targets

The Property is located within a prolific epithermal gold deposit belt that extends from Cajamarca to Ancash and includes such gold deposits as Yanacocha, Lagunas Norte and La Arena. The La Arena mine is located 50km northwest of the property.

At the Rufina mineralized zone, five vein sets of 20m to 70m in width were identified at the Rufina West mineralized zone, with lengths ranging from 10m to possibly 500m, with an average exposure of some 150m. Vein sets are composed of iron oxide-quartz-arsenopyrite-hydroxide-sulphate minerals in veinlet swarms, stockworks, and breccia zones. Veins are dominantly tensional, and are characterized by open space filling fabrics. Mineralization below the oxidation layer contains pyrite, bornite, chalcopyrite, and arsenopyrite, and where a 40-cm chip sample massive arsenopyrite sample carried 68.3 g/t gold, 52.7 g/t silver, and 0.77% copper. Chip channel sampling within the Rufina mountain underground workings identified several gold rich arsenopyrite veins. One sample returned an elevated gold concentration of 15.1 g/t Au over 0.5 m and 136.4 g/t Ag, 1.61% lead and 3.75% zinc. Three alteration samples from the recent sampling returned an averaged 8.8 g/t gold and 23.8 g/t silver.

Structural settings include faults and fractures bounded by brittle-ductile fault systems and shear zones. They are well developed in intrusive rocks as well as underlying sediments of the Chicama Fm.

The 2D inverse geophysical interpretation from the induced polarization survey shows that the high resistance diorite (the main mineralized lithology present on the Rufina zone) is concentrated near the surface and is underlain by conductive and chargeable sedimentary rocks. There appears to be a chargeability anomaly concentrated along the contact between the diorite and the underlying Chicama Fm sediments; since the anomaly also shows a higher resistivity value than what is usual for the Chicama Fm, it is interpreted to be mineralization along the contact; this is a high-priority drill target.

The San Markito mineralized zone is approximately 1,300m long and 400m wide and is open along strike to the northwest. Mineralization occurs within breccias and veins that strike northwest and dip to the northeast at between 55 and 80 degrees. The breccias vary in lengths between 30m and 200m with widths between 5m and 20m; veins are between 20cm and 1.0m in width and have been traced up to 160m, although most identified veins are between 10m and 20m long. The breccia mineralization is composed of quartz, pyrite, arsenopyrite, iron-oxide, malachite and other secondary oxides and sulphates minerals whereas the vein mineralization is composed of quartz, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, iron oxides (limonite), hydroxides (goethite) and sulphate (jarosite).

San Markito gold and silver values range from trace values to 2.27 g/t gold in the veins and to 1,814 g/t silver in the breccias. Lead, arsenic, and antimony are also enriched with lead reaching 16.82% and the latter two over the 1% analytical limit. In addition, copper values from two breccia samples returned anomalous values up to 2.31%.

The Victoria South zone is located between San Markito and Rufina zones. The host rocks are dominantly the Upper Jurassic Chicama Formation. The zone is comprised of structural vein sets ranging between 5 to 30m in width composed of iron and manganese oxides, quartz, arsenopyrite, pyrite and goethite. Most of the vein sets are bounded by faults and shear zones, with a dominant E-W east-west strike and subvertical to vertical dips. Vein lengths range from from 5m to possibly 50m, and between 1cm and 40cm in width, averaging 20cm. The main vein system is the San Carlos which was exploited for about 50m along strike. It consists of 2-3 quartz veins with abundant gossan, limonite, drusy quartz and arsenopyrite in a shear zone. Gold values mineralization range from 0.027 g/t Au up to 8.4 g/t Au over 1.2m. Silver values vary between negligible to 39.0 g/t over 1.5m. Arsenic concentrations can exceed the 10% detection limit in gold-rich samples. Lead and Zn concentrations are negligible.

The Victoria Au-Ag zone is located east of the San Markito zone within the Victoria intrusion QFP and diorite rocks near the contact with the sedimentary rocks of the Chimu Fm. Mineralized structures vary from 10 m to 100 m and widths vary from 0.1 m to 0.9 m. Surface vein material is composed of anhedral quartz and secondary iron oxide and hydroxide minerals producing a distinctive dark brown to rusty yellowish brown color. Gold and Ag values vary from trace to 14.4 g/t Au and 927 g/t Ag respectively. Copper values are elevated in most samples to a maximum of 4.29% Cu.

The Technical Report titled “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the La Victoria Au-Ag Property, Ancash, Peru” has been filed and is available under Eloro’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
