Integra Gold Corp. (TSXV:ICG,OTCQX:ICGQF) announced the second set of assay results from fall 2015/winter 2016 drilling at the Triangle deposit, located at its Lamaque South gold project in Quebec.
Highlights include:

  • Significant high grade gold mineralization was reported in infill drilling on the C1 structure at relatively shallow depths from surface confirming the continuity of that zone with uncut intercepts including 209.28 g/t Au over 1.5 metres (“m”) in hole TM-15-061 (average 34.3 g/t Au when samples capped at 34.3 g/t), 45.97 g/t Au over 1.0 m in hole TM-15-056 (average 21.79 g/t Au when capped at 34.3 g/t Au) and 12.90 g/t Au over 3.2 m in TM-15-050 (same average when capped at 34.3 g/t Au); all reported thicknesses are downhole widths.
  • Results from step-out drilling conducted on the steeply dipping C5 mineralized structure at Triangle (structurally below the Main C4) appear to extend the known limits of the structure up to 250 m further east of previously reported intercepts with mineralization grading 5.64 g/t Au over 2.5 m (downhole width) reported in TM-15-053; high grade intercepts of 51.78 g/t Au over 4.3 m were also reported from infill drilling (TM-15-068) of that same structure (when capped at 34.3 g/t Au the average grade of this intercept is 16.88 g/t Au).
  • Preliminary results for one hole drilled on the C4 structure 75 m east of the November 2015 resource envelope limits, TM-15-064, demonstrates the potential for significant resource expansion on the C4 structure with a reported intercept of 6.42 g/t Au over 4.9 m; results are partial for this hole with the last available assayed intervals returning 4.36 g/t Au with results for the last 350 m of sampled core still pending.

Stephen de Jong, president and CEO of Integra Gold, commented:

These impressive new results from the ongoing exploration program at Triangle are significant as they demonstrate the potential for high grade gold mineralization to extend well beyond the previously disclosed resource boundary limits. Significant and at times spectacular high gold grades are now also being reported in the infill drilling, a situation reminiscent of the historical Lamaque and Sigma Mine grade distribution patterns which often presented outstanding gold grades and localized areas hosting abundant free gold. The bulk of the Triangle zone remains hosted within a series of sub-parallel, steeply-dipping and stacked C structures, displaying a high degree of periodicity, with additional zones interpreted to occur at depths beyond the presently known limits of the deposit. In our view, all of the known C structures remain open for expansion. In the short term, we are also awaiting further results from deeper holes that are designed to test the extents of gold mineralization beyond the 1,000 m vertical elevation mark.
