Abbreviations: Py pyrite Apy Arsenopyrite.Īll samples were shipped to the Bureau Veritas laboratory in Vancouver, BC, where they were crushed and split and a 500g sub sample pulverized to 200 mesh. *Note that grab samples are select samples and are not necessarily representative of gold mineralization found on the property. The discovery of the new gold showing this season is the latest addition to what is turning into a prolific trend.” “The Thurber Dog area stands out as the most consistently mineralized gold trend in the belt and we are still finding gold mineralization that fills in gaps along the three kilometre stretch of anomalous gold in both rock and soil. “Our systematic approach to exploration of the Florence Lake belt continues to turn up anomalous gold values in areas of high potential.” said Roger Moss, President and Chief Executive Officer of Labrador Gold. To date the company has collected 12,510 soil samples, 414 lake sediment samples and 834 rock samples along the length of the greenstone belt. The three samples from the occurrence assayed 1.67 g/t Au, 2.83 g/t Au and 8.26 g/t Au.Īnomalous gold values were also found in samples from elsewhere in the targeted areas and range from 0.11 g/t Au to 0.6 g/t Au (See table below). Mineralization is comprised of disseminated to semi-massive pyrite and arsenopyrite hosted by felsic metavolcanic rocks with pervasive iron oxide alteration. The showing is located approximately 500 metres north, and along strike of, the Thurber Dog gold occurrence where previous Labrador Gold rock sampling returned values up to 7.87 g/t Au. The highest gold values were from three samples taken at the site of a new mineralized showing discovered shortly after the start of field work (see News Release dated July 26, 2019). Sampling of the prospective areas resulted in 201 rock samples with gold values ranging from below the detection limit of 5 parts per billion (ppb) to 8.26 grams per tonne (g/t) in selected grab samples.
The 2019 exploration program was designed to generate drill targets within these areas using detailed geological mapping, rock sampling and prospecting and ground magnetics/VLF-EM (very low frequency electromagnetics). To date, the Company has defined eight high potential areas for gold within the belt. The Company controls a 57-kilometre strike length of stratigraphy prospective for gold in the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt (FLGB).
(TSX-V: LAB) (“Labrador Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results of rock sampling at its Hopedale project in Labrador. 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Labrador Gold Corp. Occurs within a larger 3km trend of anomalous gold in rock and soil associated with the contact between mafic/ultramafic volcanic rocks and felsic volcanic rocks.Extends potential strike length of gold mineralization by approximately 500 metres along strike to the north.Selected grab samples from new gold showing north of the Thurber Dog gold occurrence show assays between 1.67 and 8.26 g/t Au.
