Eldorado Gold says Efemcukuru drilling continues to grow deposit
Eldorado Gold Corp said results from the first 5 holes testing the North Ore Shoot (NOS) at the Efemcukuru project in Western Turkey show strengthening of the grades and value of the system laterally and at depth.
The program is designed to test the extension of this poorly defined third ore shoot in the Efemcukuru system. Drilling is planned to continue throughout the first quarter 2009.
One hole encountered 21.1 grams per ton of gold and 52.7 g/t of silver at an interval 4.4 metres long and 4.1 metres wide, while another found 23.1 g/t of gold and 77.1 metres of silver at a 2.3 metres by 2.1 metres interval.
The gold mineralization is consistently associated with high silver values and anomalous base metal concentrations. At present the NOS mineralization is not included in the Efemcukuru Project mining plan.
"These excellent results demonstrate the potential for the North Ore Shoot to contribute to additional reserve growth at Efemcukuru beyond the current 1.2 million ounces," commented Paul Wright, president and CEO.
