Tudor Gold Corp. (TSXV: TUD) has intersected further gold in new drill results for Phase l of the 2022 exploration programme at Treaty Creek, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia.
“We are extremely pleased with the fith set of results for the 2022 Treaty Creek drill hole programme,” Ken Konkin, President and CEO, said.
“Not only do we see continued success in the step-out drilling of the large Goldstorm Deposit and its various domains, but we also see the continuation of hitting high-grades within pulses of gold and silver as a late-stage, over-printed style of mineralisation. Notably, much higher silver mineralization is associated with these late-stage features as supported by a 1.5 m interval within the 300H domain which yielded 24.11 g/t AuEQ (20.40 g/t Au, 311 g/t Ag and 648 ppm Cu) within GS-22-146 as part of a 10.5 m composite that averaged 9.55 g/t AuEQ (8.77 g/t Au, 62.44 g/t Ag and 410 ppm Cu). Similarly, within hole GS-22-147, a 1.10 m intercept yielded 22.79 g/t AuEQ (13.4 g/t Au, 801 g/t Ag and 196 ppm Cu).
“These two high-grade precious metal intercepts occur deeper within the 300H domain and are 285 m apart from each other. Three of the six reported Goldstorm holes were step-out drill holes that were drilled outside the 2021 Resource Estimate area; the other drill holes were targeted to infill large blocks that represent significant tonnages within the resource model.
“Within the 300H domain, we continue to recover long intercepts of gold-silver mineralisation that contains a core of gold-silver enrichment: GS-22-146 cut 517.5 m of 1.10 g/t AuEQ (1.02 g/t Au, 4.17 g/t Ag, 285 ppm Cu) with an enriched, deeper portion averaging 2.64 g/t AuEQ over 102 m (2.48 g/t Au, 8.88 g/t Ag and 491 ppm Cu). Step-out drill holes into the CS600 domain continue to produce strong copper grades associated with gold-sliver mineralisation. GS-22-147 cut 0.41 % Cu over 87.0 m that averaged 1.01 g/t AuEQ (0.45 g/t Au, 6.86 g/t Ag, 0.41 % Cu).
}Drilling at the Eureka Zone revealed gold-silver mineralization similar to the DS5 Domain of Goldstorm. Geologic similarities include the occurrence of post-mineral intrusive dykes as observed throughout the Goldstorm Deposit as well as fault off-sets. The best drilling results of the season so far were obtained from EZ-22-12 which intersected 46.0 m of 1.05 g/t AuEQ (0.89 g/t Au, 6.41 g/t Ag and 697 ppm Cu). Drilling continues as we have yet to determine any limits to the Goldstorm or Eureka systems.”
The Programme at the Treaty Creek property includes an aggressive resource expansion and delineation plan for several areas, including the Goldstorm Deposit and the Eureka and Calm Before the Storm Zones.
Results included in this press release are reported from twelve diamond drill holes that were drilled on the Eureka Zone (Sections EZ – A, EZ – B, EZ – C) and six diamond drill holes that were drilled on the Goldstorm Deposit (Sections E, F, G, H) At Goldstorm, three out of six holes were drilled partially or completely outside the 2021 Mineral Resource Estimate area.
