Renforth’s Parbec Surface Program Concluded, Succesfully Intersects Mineralized Lenses
The Diorite Nose/NW area was initially trenched in 2017, returning 1.55 g/t Au over 9m, including 3.94 g/t over 1m (press release May 9 2019). This area was expanded to create a bedrock exposure which was washed, mapped and channelled, with some adjacent unwashed stripping also undertaken. This exposure revealed felsite and porphyry units forming discontinuous lenses, demonstrated as mineralized in prior trenching, and dykes which strongly cross-cut the regional structures, namely the Cadillac Break. In addition to this at least 3 low-angle quartz veins were discovered in the NW and an area of the Cadillac Break schists which contains multiple narrow lenses of diorite, felsite and quartz which strongly resemble mixed-lithology mineralized zones seen in several of Renforth’s drillholes in the NW.
The southern Sediment/Splay area was trenched over a diorite/schist unit (a Diorite Splay) forming a prominent ridge and ended in the Pontiac Sediments in the south. This area was mapped in a preliminary fashion only as washing was not possible due to equipment breakdown. The target of this trenching was mineralized veins intersected along the south margin of the diorite in drill holes, several veins were uncovered on surface in expected locations when projected to surface.
The undrilled area of the Cadillac Break with outcrop was stripped and exposed two lenses of a type of felsite set in schist close to the south margin of a large diorite. This area could not be washed but samples were selected.
The undrilled area near the ramp was stripped in the vicinity of the previous grab sample of 1.04 g/t Au taken on a narrow ridge. Stripping revealed a number of bulbous ridges in the area of the original showing, numerous quartz veins were exposed over 5m in strike, these were sampled. Also exposed was a 1.5m wide felsite-type structure striking almost N/S, perpendicular to the Break, this program has highlighted several of these, their presence is of interest as they could have been missed in drilling to date, which has all been carried out perpendicular (almost N/S) to the Break where it would be alongside the structures.
Samples were cut, bagged and tagged in the field by the geologists, they have been delivered for assay and will be reported upon once results are available.
