Victoria Gold intersects 283 meters grading 2.9 grams per tonne at Santa Fe project
Victoria Gold (TSX VENTURE: VIT) report further highly encouraging assay results from the Santa Fe gold project in Nevada. Victoria Gold can earn up to 70% in the project from Barrick Gold (TSX & NYSE: ABX) by expending US$6.5 million over six years. In addition to the claims included in the earn-in agreement with Barrick Gold, Victoria Gold has also staked a further 42 unpatented claims adjacent to Santa Fe.
The gold exploration junior released assay results from drill hole BH-3, which intersected numerous intervals of gold mineralization, including 283.9 meters averaging 2.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold from just 2.9 meters. The same hole also intersected 8.1 meters averaging 3.67 g/t gold from 307 meters, and 6.1 meters averaging 2.35 g/t gold from 355 meters. The 283.9 meter interval included four higher grade zones, the best being 11.3 meters averaging 11.56 g/t gold from 142 meters.
Victoria Gold also noted that poor recoveries had occurred between 3 and 168 meters
"Similar to drill hole BH-2's interval of 309 m grading 2.25 g/t reported on October 22, 2009, BH-3 returned a very wide interval of gold mineralization; importantly, BH-3 also contained a higher-grade mineralized block having a minimum of 11.3 m grading 11.46 g/t which Victoria views as very encouraging", said Chad Williams, President, CEO, and Director.
The mineralization remains open at depth and along strike.
Victoria Gold is currently drilling BH-4, which is targeting higher grade gold mineralization in the north-east zone of the Santa Fe open pit. The company also reported that an additional rig is on route to speed up exploration.
