Colombia Crest Makes Anomalous Gold Discovery at Arabia Area

Colombia Crest Gold Corp. (TSXV:CLB,OTC Pink:ECRTF,FWB:EAT) announced two new anomalous gold zones at the Colombia-based Arabia project.

As quoted in the press release:

Soil sample results from the first area announced on December 7, 2011 had gold assays that varied from below detection up to 405 ppb, or 0.4 grams per tonne gold. In one area, referred to as Arabia 1 – the area currently being drilled, the anomalous soil assays coincided with rock chip samples of potassic-altered porphyry outcrop that varied from below detection up to 3.8 parts per million gold.

Colombia Crest’s President and CEO, Hans Rasmussen said:

I am not just excited about the number of mineralized zones, but more about the size of the anomalies and their exact coincidence to magnetic features – all suggesting that Arabia is a porphyry gold-copper complex.
