Eagle Hill Exploration Corporation (TSXV:EAG) announced additional assay results from its current drill program at the Windfall Lake gold deposit in Northwestern Quebec. A new gold zone has been defined; it extends from only 13 meters below surface to a depth of 350 meters.
As quoted in the press release:
Near surface drilling on Zone 27 returned another wide interval of 18.6 meters assaying 5.89 g/t gold consisting of 2% to 10% pyrite in a typical sulphide stockwork with tourmaline. This interval includes a higher grade section of 11.42 g/t gold over 8.8 meters. The thick near surface gold mineralization is now known over a strike-length of 275 meters and remains completely open to the west. Eagle Hill is planning additional short drillholes to evaluate the western extension. Eagle Hill also intersected 5.48 g/t gold over 5.6 meters in a parallel gold zone at only 48 meters below surface, thus demonstrating that multiple parallel zones do exist close to surface.
Two drill holes tested a poorly defined gold zone located between the Caribou and the Mink gold zones. Drillhole EAG-12-401 returned an intercept of12.24 g/t gold over 3.0 meters. Drill hole EAG-12-403 assayed 1.91 g/t gold over 21.9 meters and drillhole EAG-12-406 intersected 48.3 g/t gold over 1.0 meter at only 13 meters below surface. Previous intercepts in this gold zone include 3.0 g/t gold over 5.2 meters (EAG-12-399), 41.3 g/t gold over 1.0 meter (EAG-12-391), and 2.9 g/t gold over 2.6 meters (ATO-99-18). To date this zone is known to extend from 13 meters below surface to a depth of 340 meters below surface.
