Bellhaven Copper & Gold Adds El Limon Target

Bellhaven Copper & Gold Inc. (TSXV:BHV) announced drill results from the La Mina Project in Colombia and that they have added the El Limon target.

As quoted in the press release:

The two El Limon holes with significant mineralized intervals (LME-1084 and -1085) are oriented N45W and collared approximately 100m apart on the west side of a previously noted gold and copper soil anomaly (Figures 2 and 3). The gold intercepts in those holes coincide well with the soil anomalies. While these intercepts improve upon the previously reported mineralization in LMDDH-021 (see Company news release dated April 20, 2011), later drill holes (LME-1086, -1087, and -1088) collared to the southwest did not improve upon the grade and thickness of the El Limon mineralization.

Bellhaven’s CEO, Patrick Highsmith, said:

The first test of the Adit Target confirmed the presence of higher-grade silver in epithermal veins; and these veins may be indicative of deeper porphyry or gold vein mineralization. In the course of executing our systematic exploration plan, it was important to test these shallow targets that adjoin our known resources. However, early in 2013 we turn our attention to the new Garrucha discovery and the un-drilled Cristalina target.
