Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) has received promising assay results for the first four core holes (1,014 m) completed at the Dayton Target area as part of the Phase 1 drill program at the Greenwood Project in British Columbia. A total of 3,123 m in 15 core holes has been completed at the Greenwood Project with results for 11 holes still pending.
2022 Dayton Drilling Highlights
- The company completed four core holes for 1,014 m at the copper-gold Dayton Skarn/Porphyry Prospect following up a discovery by Grizzly in 2011 at Dayton.
- The Dayton IP2 target (an induced polarization [IP] chargeability anomaly) was tested by Grizzly with a single hole in 2011 and intersected potassic altered volcanics and dioritic intrusives with a near surface intersection (11DA-009) of 0.15% copper (Cu) and 0.43 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) (or 0.46% CuEq) over 51 m core length starting at a depth of 3.0 m.
- Comparable and thicker sulphide zones, skarn and potassic alteration have been intersected in the 2022 drilling at the Dayton IP2 target.
- New intersections at Dayton include hole 22DA-016 with 0.062% Cu, 0.221 g/t Au and 1.89 g/t Ag (0.221% CuEq) over 180 m core length, 22DA-017 with 0.057% Cu, 0.149 g/t Au and 1.76 g/t Ag (0.177% CuEq) over 184 m core length, and 22DA-015 with 0.033% Cu, 0.155 g/t Au and 2.06 g/t Ag (0.162% CuEq) over 44.5 m core length.
- Intercepts are all associated with an IP chargeability anomaly (IP2) and mineralization appears to plunge and thicken to the northeast down plunge in conjunction with an apparent plunge of the IP chargeability anomaly (Figures 3 to 7). The IP2 anomaly is at least 600 m in strike length and ranges from 100 to 150 m wide and is open to the northeast and at depth.
- Further drilling is planned for the Dayton IP2 chargeability anomaly. Permits are already in place to conduct further drilling.
“The early stage drill programme at Dayton successfully intersected large intervals of copper, gold, and silver bearing altered and mineralized volcanic and diorite intrusive rocks; an encouraging positive step forward for a project that has seen little systematic exploration in the past. We are eager to resume drilling to expand this exciting discovery,” President and CEO, Brian Testo, said.
