Results from surface channel samples taken from the Kinskuch property of Bravo Gold Corp. (TSXV:BVG,FWB:B6I) confirm the presence of a strongly precious-metal enriched mineralizing system over a 2.5 kilometre strike-length within the same stratigraphic section as the Homestake Ridge deposits and which has been only minimally explored.
As quoted in the press release:
Highlights of the sampling include:
- a 2.2 metre interval averaging 530g/t silver, 5.5% lead and 4.2% zinc (807g/t AgEq), including 0.55 metres of 1503g/t silver, 16.9% lead and 8.8% zinc (2235g/t AgEq) from trench KNTR-015;
- a 1.1 metre interval averaging 285g/t silver, 4.3% lead and 3.1% zinc (512g/t AgEq) from trench KNTR-018; and
- a 1.9 metres averaging 373g/t silver, 7.8% lead and 5.2% zinc (743g/t AgEq), including a 0.6 metre interval averaging 898g/t silver, 16.0% lead and 10.4% zinc (1648g/t AgEq) from trench KNTR-004.
This phase of surface exploration confirms the presence of a strongly precious-metal enriched mineralizing system over a 2.5 kilometre strike-length within the same stratigraphic section as the Homestake Ridge deposits and which has been only minimally explored. Analyses from four core holes, totaling 856 metres, drilled toward the end of the 2011 exploration season are expected in January 2012. Only three of the six known mineral occurrences were drill tested with shallow holes, leaving a significant strike-length of the trend remaining for future exploration. Numerous other targets remain to be investigated throughout the Kinskuch project and will be the subject of an aggressive exploration program in 2012.
