Red Pine Exploration Inc. (TSXV: RPX) has obtained positive new drilling results from its 2021 drilling programme in Ontario, Canada
Hole SD-21-308 discovered significant mineralisation 140 m down-dip of the resource boundary in the northern part of the Surluga deposit in the Jubilee Shear Zone.
This new zone, starting at approximately 240 metres vertical depth and named the Surluga North Discovery, has the potential to expand the current resource of the Surluga Deposit at the Wawa Gold Project.
Highlights of the on-going drilling programme
- SD-21-308 intersected a mineralised envelope covering 27.26 metres estimated true width (TW) in the Jubilee Shear Zone:
- 18.21 g/t gold over 1.95 metres (TW)
- 3.90 g/t gold over 4.47 metres (TW) including 18.14 g/t gold over 0.82 metre (TW)
- Visible gold has been observed in the following holes with assays pending:
- In veins and shear zones adjacent to the Jubilee Shear Zone in SD-21-309 and SD-21-313
- In the Surluga South discovery (Jubilee Shear Zone South) in SD-21-312A
- In the Nyman Shear Zone hole DG-22-317
“Our on-going exploration programme testing the southern and northern extensions of the Jubilee Shear Zone continue to indicate that significant zones of gold mineralisation remain to be discovered down-dip and beyond the footprint of the existing resources,” President and CEO, Quentin Yarie, said.
“Hole SD-21-308 opened a potential extension of gold mineralisation beyond the current boundary of the Surluga Deposit resource which is less than 250 metres below surface.
“With four drills turning on-site our exploration program can now test in parallel the Surluga South and North discoveries and the Darwin-Grace-Nyman target.”
