Tudor Gold Corp. (TSXV: TUD) has achieved further success with its third set of drill results for Phase l of the 2022 exploration programme at the Treaty Creek, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of North-western British Columbia.
“We are extremely pleased to report this second consecutive high-grade, visible gold intercept from our north-eastern step-out drilling,” President and CEO, Ken Konkin, said.
“This 70.96 g/t AuEQ intercept over one metre is now highest single gold grade intercept of the project. The unique aspect of the two-metere composite of 39.15 g/t AuEQ and the 4.5 m visible gold composite from GS-22-134 that averaged 20.86 g/t AuEQ is that they both appear to have similar modes of occurrence that resembles the gold mineralisation at the Valley of Kings (VOK) Deposit at Newcrest’s Brucejack Lake Mine adjacent to our southern border.
“Most of the free-gold mineralization at the Goldstorm Deposit is associated with quartz-pyrite veinlets but it also appears as fine disseminated grains of free visible gold within host rock as observed in this high-grade intercept within GS-22-143.
“This may be a colloidal-type mineralisation which is also observed at the Brucejack Lake Mine. Gold mineralisation at the VOK Deposit occurs as electrum, however the visible gold found at the Goldstorm Deposit occurs as native gold.
“As with the discovery of R-66 to the southeast, these new high-grade gold intercepts may be completely different pulses of mineralisation that can occur outside the known limits of the porphyry style of gold mineralisation. Clearly more drilling is required to better understand the grade distribution and consistency within the north-eastern portion of the Goldstorm Deposit.”
The Programme at the Treaty Creek property includes an aggressive resource expansion and delineation plan on several areas including the Goldstorm Deposit and the Eureka and Calm Before the Storm zones.
