Drilling Extends Vein Structures: Results Include 26.5 g/t Gold and 97.71 g/t Silver Over 1 ft.
(firmenpresse) - WINNIPEG, MANITOBA -- (Marketwired) -- 03/28/17 -- Winston Gold Mining Corp. ("Winston Gold" or the "Corporation") (CSE: WGC)(CSE: WGC.CN)(OTCQB: WGMCF) is pleased to announce drilling has extended the strike length of the Block 93 vein structure farther to the west. The vein now has been traced over a strike length of about 246 ft. (75 metres), and to a vertical extent of 192 ft. (58.5 metres) on the Company''s wholly-owned Winston Gold Property near Helena Montana.
"These new results show that the Block 93 vein has significant vertical and horizontal extent," commented Murray Nye, CEO and Director of Winston Gold Mining. "A number of previously unknown veins were also encountered in both the hanging wall and foot wall of the Block 93 structure. However, it is still too early to speculate if these veins are continuous and/or related to that vein structure."
Previously announced drill results (March 1st, 2017) confirmed the existence of two high grade veins dubbed the Parallel and Block 93 veins. These veins were identified from historic drill data from the 1980''s.
A total of six new holes were collared on a drill pad, located about 80 ft. (24.4 metres) southeast from the spot where holes W1727, W1728 and W1729 were collared. These new holes were drilled in a fan configuration and were designed to extend the strike length of the Block 93 vein structure.
The holes tested an additional 198 ft. (60.3 metres) strike length of the Block 93 Vein. Refer to attached drill plan map. Highlights of the Results include:
Refer to chart below for details of the drill holes discussed in this release. The dips of the veins are currently unknown at this time so true width cannot be accurately determined.
The Winston Gold Project is central to a historic precious and base metal mining district in which most of the ore was mined from tightly structurally controlled high angle fissure veins and lode/replacement zones. Reports indicate that more than 100,000 ounces of gold was recovered from these underground mines in the late 19th to early 20th century from about 150,000 tons of ore. (Earle, 1964; Schell, 1963).
Sampling Methodology, Chain of Custody, Quality Control and Quality Assurance
All sampling was conducted under the supervision of the Company''s project geologists and the chain of custody from the drill to the on-site sample preparation facility was continuously monitored. The samples are crushed, pulverized and the sample pulps digested and analyzed for gold using fire assay fusion and a 50 gram gravimetric finish. Blank or certified reference materials are inserted randomly. Check Assays are sent to Bureau Veritas Minerals, in Reno Nevada.
