Requested tellurium re-analysis of select drill core samples from the Fall 2018 diamond drill program at the Gold Drop Property, located in southern British Columbia
Multiple drill core samples from drill holes COD18-67 and COD18-70 exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical limit for tellurium.
The 2018 Fall diamond drill program tested the COD vein. The program followed up on results from previous 2018 diamond drilling at the southern extension of the COD vein. The highlights of the 2018 Fall drill program are drill hole COD18-67 which intersected 129 g/t gold and 1,154 g/t silver over 7.28 meters core length and drill hole COD18-70 which intersected 107.5 g/t gold and 880 g/t silver over 6.90 m
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 7, 2019 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-v: GGX), (OTCQB: GGXXF), (FRA: 3SR2) (the “Company” or “GGX“)
is pleased to announce it has requested tellurium re-analysis of select
drill core samples from the Fall 2018 diamond drill program at the Gold
Drop Property, located in southern British Columbia. The Fall 2018
drill program was conducted at the C.O.D. Vein, located in the Gold Drop
Southwest Zone. Multiple drill core samples from drill holes COD18-67
and COD18-70 exceeded the upper 500 grams per tonne (g/t) analytical
limit for tellurium. These samples returned high grade values for gold
and silver. These samples will be re-analyzed to determine tellurium
grades. Highlights from the Fall 2018 drill program include (News

drill core samples from the high-grade gold and silver intersections of
drill holes COD-18-67 and COD-18-70 returned greater than the upper
analytical limit of 500 g/t for tellurium during initial analysis (four
acid ICP-MS analysis by ALS Canada Ltd. in North Vancouver). As a
result, the tellurium weighted average grade for these intersections
could not be determined. The Company has requested ALS Canada Ltd. to
re-analyze these samples for tellurium.
Tellurium
(Te) remains as one of the rarest elements on earth. Tellurium
production has been a by-product of copper and gold mining. The
production is limited, estimated to being on the order of 800 metric
tonnes per year. According to the USGS total production for 2007 was 107
Mtonnes.
Up to recently, the sole use of tellurium has been
alloying of other metals to increase the machinability of copper or to
decrease the corrosive action of sulfuric acid on lead.
The most
significant modern use of tellurium is the Cadmium-telluride (Cd-Te)
photovoltaic solar cells. These solar cells are the forefront of solar
power. One gigawatt (GW) of Cd-Te, at current efficiencies, would
require approximately 93 metric tons of tellurium. These cells have the
smallest carbon footprint and the shortest energy payback time of all
solar cells. The efficiency of technology is constantly improving and
the Cd-Te now takes up 5.1% of worldwide PV production.
PHOTOVOLTAICS REPORT, Freiburg, 27 August 2018 (To view the full-size image, please click here)
In
the C.O.D vein system the tellurium occurs as a soft silver-grey
telluride mineral. The telluride mineral is a Silver-Tellurium-Gold
alloy speculated to be sylvanite. Whenever this mineral is observed in
the drill core the interval has elevated silver, gold and tellurium
values.

Advance Gold has Identified up to 30 Epithermal veins through the first 2 stages of drilling.
AGT-02 Tabasquena intersected 19m of core and is discovery hole of 1.7m of 9.64g/t gold in first 10 metres assayed.
La Chiquita – 4.70m Intersection from (109.25 to 113.95) in AGT-04
AGT-04 Intersected new Vein Yaki for 0.8m, crosscutting La Chiquita vein for 4.70m,the Tabasquena vein for 10 metres in the oxide zone & the La Nina vein for 11m (129-140m depth)
Phase 3 Drilling
In the first two phases of drilling, Advance discovered a cluster of epithermal veins, all but a few of them blind, which suggests this drilling intersected the top of the epithermal vein system.
The results from the 2 phases of drilling returned significant gold mineralization (see Press Releases November 1, 2018 and November 6, 2018)
A key focus of the phase 3 drilling will be to drill deeper and target the boiling zone of the epithermal vein system. The cluster of veins dip toward a fault which is considered a key structural feature.
A proposed hole will start from the east side of the fault, drill west, to then go through the cluster of veins to catch them at the boiling zone.

Golden Trust Property covers an area of 2,400 hectares in a relatively under-explored area of the central Newfoundland gold belt
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 1, 2019 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV:GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it has acquired, through staking, the Golden Trust Property, located in the central Newfoundland gold belt and 1 kilometer north of the Valentine Lake Gold Camp of Marathon Gold Corp. has acquired, through staking, the Golden Trust Property (TSXV:MOZ). The Golden Trust Property covers an area of 2,400 hectares in a relatively under-explored area of the central Newfoundland gold belt. Key points for the Golden Trust Property include:
Located
1 km north of the Valentine Lake Gold Camp of Marathon Gold Corp.,
approximately 44 km southwest of Great Atlantic’s Golden Promise
Property and approximately 31 km southwest of the Duck Pond VMS deposit.
Within
the prospective Victoria Lake Supergroup which hosts numerous
epigenetic gold & volcanogenic massive sulfide occurrences
(including Duck Pond VMS deposit).
Within
the Exploits Subzone of the Dunnage Zone and east of the Red Indian
Line (RIL), a major (Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture
zone.
Government till samples (2008) returned elevated to anomalous values for gold in various regions of the Golden Trust Property.
The
Golden Trust Property occurs within an under-explored area of the
Newfoundland central gold belt. Company management have been unable to
locate any reports of historic diamond drilling within the property.
Till geochemical sampling conducted by the Newfoundland Department of
Natural Resources in 2008 included a small number of wide-spaced samples
within the Golden Trust Property. Samples from various regions of the
property returned elevated to anomalous values for gold including in the
5-9 parts per billion range.
The southern boundary of the
property is located 1 kilometer north of the northeast region of the
Valentine Lake Gold Camp of Marathon Gold Corp. (TSXV:MOZ).
As reported on Marathon’s website, the Valentine Lake Gold Camp
currently hosts four near-surface, mainly pit-shell constrained,
deposits with measured and indicated resources totaling 2,691,400 oz. of
gold at 1.85 g/t gold and inferred resources totalling 1,531,600 oz. of
gold at 1.77 g/t. The Golden Trust Property is located approximately 44
kilometers southwest of Great Atlantic’s Golden Promise Gold Property
which hosts multiple gold bearing quartz vein systems.
The
Company’s Golden Trust and Golden Promise Properties and the Valentine
Lake Gold Camp of Marathon Gold Corp. all occur within the Exploits
Subzone of the Dunnage Zone. The Red Indian Line (RIL), a major
(Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture zone, forms the
western boundary of the Exploits Subzone.
The Golden Trust
Property occurs within the Victoria Lake Supergroup (VLSG), a
volcano-sedimentary terrane within the Exploits Subzone. The VLSG hosts
numerous volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) and epigenetic gold
occurrences. The most significant of the VMS deposits within the VLSG is
the Duck Pond deposit (zinc, lead, copper, silver and gold), located
approximately 31 kilometers northeast of the Golden Trust Property.
Readers
are warned that mineralization at the Valentine Lake Gold Camp, Golden
Promise Property, Duck Pond Deposit and elsewhere within the Exploits
Subzone and VLSG is not necessarily indicative of mineralization within
the Golden Trust Property.

Upcoming Drilling
In
the first two phases of drilling, Advance discovered a cluster of
epithermal veins, all but a few of them blind, which suggests this
drilling intersected the top of the epithermal vein system. The results
from the 2 phases of drilling returned significant gold mineralization
(see Press Releases November 1, 2018 and November 6, 2018).
A
key focus of the phase 3 drilling will be to drill deeper and target
the boiling zone of the epithermal vein system. The cluster of veins dip
toward a fault which is considered a key structural feature. A proposed
hole will start from the east side of the fault, drill west, to then go
through the cluster of veins to catch them at the boiling zone.
The
other key focus will be to drill a few shallow holes near a 12 metre
intersection of the Tabasquena vein in the oxides. This vein in the
oxides is much wider than the historical 2-4 metre mining width utilized
by former operator Penoles, which was across 2-4 metres. This
intersection was a 125 metre step out to the north of the old mine
workings and is approximately 75 metres along strike from the 100 metre
deep shaft and headframe. Advance has mining equipment and the
Tabasquena project is fully permitted for mining.
Allan Barry Laboucan, President and CEO of Advance Gold Corp. commented: “Our
team is very excited to get started on our phase 3 drilling program at
the Tabasquena project. We are in the final stages of planning our two
pronged approach to drilling, and will provide more details as we begin
drilling shortly.
“Past historical mining by Penoles in
the oxides had reported high-grade silver, we have stepped out from
their underground workings and found a much wider intersection of the
Tabasquena vein of 12 metres in the oxides. The shallow holes will help
us understand the near surface potential. There are plenty of streaming
and royalty companies looking for near term production projects to
invest in, yet a small group to choose from. Our timing to test the near
surface potential is very good.
“Our deep hole will test
the depth potential of the cluster of epithermal veins we have hit in
the first 2 phases of drilling. Zonation of grade along the vertical and
horizontal is common in epithermal vein systems, our deeper hole will
help us understand down to the boiling zone of the system.”

Initial drilling expands the high-grade gold potential of the McKenzie Break deposit and intersects new structures at depth
Highlights of initial results on the 13,945-metre 2018 diamond drilling program: – Hole MK-18-196: 61.20 g/t Au over 2.6 metres, incl. 265.00 g/t Au over 0.6 metres – Hole MK-18-183: 24.70 g/t Au over 0.6 metres – Hole MK-18-180: 19.80 g/t Au over 0.4 metres – Hole MK-18-195: 9.44 g/t Au over 2.0 metres, incl. 18.50 g/t Au over 1.0 metre
MONTREAL, Feb. 28, 2019 - MONARCH GOLD CORPORATION(“Monarch” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: MQR) (OTCMKTS: MRQRF) (FRANKFURT: MR7) is pleased to report the first assay results from the 2018 diamond drilling program at its wholly owned McKenzie Break gold project 25 kilometres north of Val-d’Or, near Monarchs’ Camflo and Beacon mills. The program started in September 2018 and ended in December 2018, with a total of 13,945 metres drilled in 61 holes. The purpose of the program was to explore below the known lenses and on the periphery of the multi-vein Green and Orange zones. Assays have been received for the first 21 holes totalling 4,424 metres of core (see table below for assay results).
“This first set of results attests to McKenzie Break’s solid
exploration and high-grade potential, and already extends the deposit
laterally and at depth,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch. “Previous work on the property
was mainly limited to the Green and Orange zones, which nonetheless
enabled us to outline an indicated and inferred resource of over 165,000
ounces of gold (see press release dated June 14, 2018). Our aim going forward is to increase that resource.”
Hole MK-18-196 returned 61.20 g/t Au over 2.6 metres, including
265.00 g/t Au over 0.6 metres, at 260 metres below surface. This hole
lies 110 metres west of a historic hole that returned 3.56 g/t Au over
1.1 metres, and 75 metres southeast of hole MK-18-195, which yielded
1.84 g/t Au over 1.0 metre. The intersections from holes MK-18-196 and
MK-18-195 are on the same horizon, thereby potentially representing a
new lens at depth.
Hole MK-18-183, drilled northwest of the proposed open pit, returned
24.70 g/t Au over 0.6 metres from a depth of 60 metres. Along with other
holes drilled during the 2018 program, this positive result indicates
the potential to extend the open pit towards the northwest.
Hole MK-18-180 returned a grade of 19.80 g/t Au over 0.4 metres from
90 metres below surface to the northeast of the Green Zone. This result
extends the main Green Zone lens approximately 50 metres towards the
northeast and will increase the underground mining resource in this
area.
Hole MK-18-195 returned 9.44 g/t Au over 2.0 metres, including 18.50
g/t Au over 1.0 metre. This intersection is 195 metres below surface and
represents a new lens below the main Orange Zone lens. The intersection
lies approximately 80 metres northeast of the Orange Zone sector, with
the nearest hole returning anomalous values 75 metres farther east. If
connected, these results could enlarge the lens and extend it to the
northeast.

Received all analytical results from the 2018 exploration program at its Golden Promise Property, located in the central Newfoundland gold belt
The results identified additional exploration targets where no prior drilling has taken place
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 27, 2019 / GREAT ATLANTIC RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV.GR) (the “Company” or “Great Atlantic”) is pleased to announce it has received all analytical results from the 2018 exploration program at its Golden Promise Property, located in the central Newfoundland gold belt, the results identifying additional exploration targets. The 2018 soil and rock analytical results confirm gold soil anomalies +/- rock samples anomalous in gold in at least three additional target areas in under-explored regions of the property. The Company’s main focus on the property remains the Jaclyn Zone where multiple gold bearing quartz vein systems occur. Gold bearing veins and gold bearing quartz vein boulders occur in other regions of the property.
Anomalous 2018 rock and soil samples were concentrated in three new targets areas:
Southwest
region: Anomalous soil samples along two reconnaissance soil lines, up
to 77 ppb gold (News Release of September 27, 2018). All 11 samples
along one 570- meter long line returned anomalous gold values. Rock
samples within the soil anomaly retuned anomalous gold values including
1.04 g/t gold.
East-Central region:
Anomalous soil samples (up to 39 ppb gold) & rock float samples (up
to 136 ppb gold) along a reconnaissance traverse.
West-Central
region: Anomalous soil samples (up to 41 ppb) following up in an area
of 2017 soil anomalies (212 and 236 ppb gold).
No previous drilling in the new target areas.
The
2018 program was reconnaissance in nature consisting of prospecting and
soil / rock geochemical sampling in multiple under-explored regions of
the Golden Promise Property. Multiple gold soil anomalies were
identified in the southwest, west-central and east-central regions of
the property, thereby adding to the number of gold targets within the
property. Rock grab samples from float in the east-central and southwest
regions of the property returned anomalous values for gold, the high
value being 1.04 g/t gold.
Soil sample analytical results from the
southwest region of the Golden Promise Property were reported in the
Company’s News Release of September 27, 2018. The
results include anomalous gold in soil samples from a new target area in
this southwest region. The majority of soil samples from two
reconnaissance lines in this target area returned anomalous values for
gold (up to 77 parts per billion (ppb) gold) including all 11 samples
from one approximately 570-meter long line. Nine of the 2018 rock grab
samples (float and outcrop) from this anomalous zone returned anomalous
gold values, the high value being a boulder sample with quartz veins
returning 1.04 g/t gold.This anomalous zone is
approximately 4 kilometers northeast of the Linda / Snow White gold
bearing vein which is located within the southwest region of the
property. Reported historic highlights for the Linda / Snow White vein
include a 232 g/t gold grab sample, 29.7 g/t gold over 0.5 meters in a
channel sample and 19.5 g/t gold over 1.15 meters during diamond
drilling (core length).
Quartz boulder in new southwest target area
The
2018 program confirmed an area of gold soil anomalies in the
west-central region of the property. Initial reconnaissance soil
sampling by the Company in this region during 2017 identified gold
anomalies (including samples returning 212 and 236 ppb gold). Soil
sampling in this area was continued during 2018 along 2 north-south
lines. Six of seven soil samples from an approximately 300-meter long
section of one line returned anomalous values for gold in the 8-41 ppb
gold range, confirming this new target area. This zone of gold soil
anomalies is located approximately 1 kilometer northwest of the gold
bearing Shawn’s Shot quartz vein. A 0.32-meter long chip sample
collected by the Company across the Shawn’s Shot vein in 2017 returned
48.2 g/t gold (News Release of August 28, 2017).
The 2018 program
established a new gold target area in the east-central region of the
property. Prospecting and soil sampling were conducted along one
east-west reconnaissance line in this region. Approximately 25% of the
soil samples along an approximately 2-kilometer section of this line
returned anomalous values for gold (6-39 ppb gold). Rock samples from
quartz boulders in this region returned anomalous values for gold (up to
136 ppb gold). The target area is approximately 2.2 kilometers
south-southwest of the gold bearing Jaclyn Main Zone. The Jaclyn Main
Zone has been the primary focus of historic gold exploration on the
property.
The Company recently reported a National Instrument
43-101mineral resource estimate for the Jaclyn Main Zone, located in the
northern region of the property (News Release of December 6, 2018; and
Sedar-filed National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report on the Golden
Promise Property, Central Newfoundland (revised), dated December 4, 2018
by Mr. Greg Z. Mosher, M.Sc. App., P.Geo., and Mr. Larry Pilgrim,
B.Sc., P.Geo.). The reported inferred mineral resource estimate for the
Jaclyn Main Zone is as follows:

Contained Au ounces are in-situ and do not include recovery losses
The
Jaclyn Main Zone is part of the Jaclyn Zone. At least 5 gold bearing
quartz vein systems are reported at the Jaclyn Zone, including the
Jaclyn Main Zone, Jaclyn North Zone, Jaclyn South Zone, Jaclyn East Zone
and Jaclyn West Zone. Much of the reported historical exploration
within the property has been focused on the Jaclyn Zone with the
majority of historic drill holes (2002-2010) at the Jaclyn Main Zone.
Other gold bearing veins within the property include Shawn’s Shot, Linda
/ Snow White and at the Gabbro Occurrence. High grade quartz boulders
are reported within the property including at the Jaclyn Zone and
Branden and Justin’s Hope boulder occurrences.
The property is
located within the Exploits Subzone of the Newfoundland Dunnage Zone.
Within the Exploits Subzone, the property lies along the
north-northwestern fringe of the Victoria Lake Supergroup (VLSG), a
volcano-sedimentary terrane. The northwestern margin of the Golden
Promise Property occurs proximal to, and, in part, contiguous with a
major (Appalachian-scale) collisional boundary, and suture zone, known
as the Red Indian Line (RIL). The RIL forms the western boundary of the
Exploits Subzone. Recent significant gold discoveries in this region of
the Exploits Subzone include those of Sokoman Iron Corp. (TSXV.SIC) at the Moosehead Project and Marathon Gold Corp. (TSXV.MOZ) at the Valentine Lake Gold Camp.
Sokoman Iron Corp. (TSXV.SIC) recently
announced a high-grade gold discovery on its Moosehead Property,
located approximately 40 kilometers east-northeast of the Golden Promise
Property. The discovery was made during the 2018 diamond drilling
program. A drill intersection of 44.96 g/t gold over 11.90 meters core
length was reported including a 1.35 meters core length quartz vein
intersection of 385.85 g/t gold (Sokoman Iron Corp. News Release of July
24, 2018). The Valentine Lake Gold Camp of Marathon Gold Corp. (TSXV.MOZ) is
located approximately 55 kilometers southwest of the Golden Promise
Property. As reported on Marathon’s website, the Valentine Lake Gold
Camp currently hosts four near-surface, mainly pit-shell constrained,
deposits with measured and indicated resources totaling 2,691,400 oz. of
gold at 1.85 g/t gold and inferred resources totalling 1,531,600 oz. of
gold at 1.77 g/t. Readers are warned that mineralization at the
Moosehead Property and Valentine Lake Gold Camp is not necessarily
indicative of mineralization on the Golden Promise Property.
As
reported in the National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report on the
Golden Promise Property, Central Newfoundland (revised), dated December
4, 2018 by Mr. Greg Z. Mosher, M.Sc. App., P.Geo., and Mr. Larry
Pilgrim, B.Sc., P.Geo., the Jaclyn Main Zone was modelled as a single
quartz vein that strikes east-west and dips steeply to the south.
Modelled vein thickness was based on true thickness derived from quartz
vein intercepts. The estimate is based on 220 assays that were
composited to 135 one-meter long composites. A bulk density of 2.7 g/cm3
was used. Blocks in the model measured 15 meters east-west, 1-meter
north-south and 10 meters vertically. The block model was not rotated.
Grades were interpolated using inverse-distance squared (ID2) weighting
and a search ellipse that measured 100 meters along strike, two meters
across strike and 50 meters vertically. Grades were interpolated based
on a minimum of two and a maximum of 10 composites with a maximum of one
composite per hole so the grade of each block is based on at least two
drillholes thereby demonstrating continuity of mineralization. For the
capped mineral resource estimate, all assays that exceed 65 g/t gold
were capped at 65 g/t gold. All resources were classified as Inferred
because of the relatively wide spacing of drill holes through most of
the zone.
Because part of the vein is near surface the resource
estimate was constrained by a conceptual open pit to demonstrate
reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction. Generic mining
costs of US$2.50/tonne and processing costs of US$25.00/tonne were used
together with a gold price of US$1,300/ounce. A conceptual pit slope of
45° was assumed with no allowance for mining loss or dilution. Based on
the combined hypothetical mining and processing costs and the assumed
price of gold, a pit-constrained cutoff grade of 0.6 g/t was adopted.
For the underground portion of the resource a cutoff of 1.5 g/t was
assumed. The cutoff grade for the total resource is the weighted average
of the pit-constrained and underground cutoff grades.
The
2018 rock and soil samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. in
Springdale, NL for gold by Fire Assay and for 34 elements by ICP. A
qualified person managed and conducted the 2018 exploration program.

Release are accurate.

JV partner Tudor Gold has updated information from the southern part of the Goldstorm Zone on the Treaty Creek property in the Golden Triangle
Significant horizons of stronger gold mineralization occur in a thick envelope of low-grade gold mineralization throughout the entire Goldstorm Zone.
Within the low-grade mineralized body, near-surface horizons of stronger gold grades occur.
CB-17-24 interval averages 0.945 g/t Au over 213.0 meters,including the core of the zone that averages 1.925 g/t Au over a 60 meter interval.
Cardston, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – February 27, 2019) – American Creek Resources Ltd. (TSXV: AMK) (the “Company”)is
pleased to announce that JV partner Tudor Gold has updated information
from the southern part of the Goldstorm Zone on the Treaty Creek
property in the Golden Triangle region of British Columbia. New
composites from drill holes completed during 2017 and 2018 demonstrate
that significant horizons of stronger gold mineralization occur in a
thick envelope of low-grade gold mineralization throughout the entire
Goldstorm Zone.
Within
the low-grade mineralized body, near-surface horizons of stronger gold
grades occur. The southernmost drill section, 107+00 NE (attached below)
demonstrates that the Goldstorm Zone contains a higher grade gold
interval at its eastern near-surface projection in hole CB-17-24. This
enriched gold interval averages 0.945 g/t Au over 213.0 metersincluding the core of the zone that averages 1.925 g/t Au over a 60 meter interval.
Similarly, the upper part of the gold intercepts in holes CB18-32 and
CB18-34 also demonstrate that the stronger gold mineralization occurs in
the upper portion of each intercept. The following table gives gold
composites from the three drill holes on Section 107+00 NE that cut the
Goldstorm Zone.

Gold Exploration Manager Ken Konkin stated: “We consistently see thick,
low-grade gold intercepts that contain distinct horizons of stronger
gold mineralization throughout the entire Goldstorm Zone. Our
preliminary petrographic studies confirm that gold mineralization is
associated with multiple pulses of disseminated and veinlet pyrite
emplacement. These events were then over-printed and mineralized by
late-stage, steep-angled, quartz-calcite-pyrite veinlets that contain
native gold. The hanging wall of the Goldstorm Zone is well defined by a
sharp fault contact. This appears to be a moderately dipping regional
thrust fault similar to the orientation and nature of the Sulphurets
Thrust Fault hanging wall contact at Seabridge’s Iron Cap deposit,
located five kilometers to the southwest.” Goldstorm
extends for at least 500 meters along a northeastern strike and is open
to the east, north and down dip. A drill plan map showing the locations
of drill hole collars and section lines is included below in the
attached Section 107+00NE. Drill hole CB18-35B stopped within the fault
zone and therefore did not penetrate the gold zone. In the following
weeks, geologists will be planning an aggressive diamond drill hole
program for the 2019 exploration season in order to fast-track the
advancement of the Treaty Creek Project. Tudor
Gold will be displaying core samples and drill sections at booth #3314
at the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada convention in
Toronto March 3-6, 2019.
