Commander identifies two new gold zones on Glenmorangie property

Commander identifies two new gold zones on Glenmorangie property

Commander Resources (CVE:CMD) said Friday that field work carried out at its Glenmorangie gold project, located in southeast Yukon, has identified two anomalous gold zones with varying gold values.

The first zone measures three kilometres long by two kilometres wide, and lies in the northern part of the company's claims.

Several quartz veins have been mapped on this zone, trending in a northwesterly direction.

The second zone is located to the south and was identified through mapping and sampling. A northwest-trending fault was
discovered through gold-in-soil, with values up to 131 ppb gold.

Commander Resources' president Eric Norton said: "The results from this program are very encouraging.

"This area continues to attract a lot of attention with the on-going success of Northern Tiger's 3Ace drill program and we feel that the Glenmorangie property has good fundamental geology to justify continued exploration in the area."

The 5,600-hectare Glenmorangie property is located in the Selwyn Basin of the Yukon and lies at the southern end of the Tombstone gold belt. There has been very little exploration for gold in this area, with the focus historically being on tungsten.

Commander said it discovered the zones via assays from a total of 1,350 soil samples, 205 rock samples, 20 silt samples, and six bulk silt samples that it collected over two months.

The grab rock samples returned values up to 4.5 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, while the soil values ranged up to 106 parts per billion (ppb) gold.

To date, a total of $320,000 has been spent on the program. Further work will focus on the coincidence of gold values along the structural corridors on the property. A program for 2012 is to be planned in the coming months.

On the TSX-Venture, Commander shares rose eight percent to $0.135, as of 12:08 pm EDT.
