American Eagle Gold Corp. (TSXV: AE) (" American Eagle " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that its contractor Zonge Engineering has completed a new Controlled Source Audio Magnetotelluric ("CSAMT") geophysical resistivity survey on the Company's flagship Golden Trend property. Golden Trend is located adjacent to and on-trend of Barrick and Newmont's Goldrush and Cortez Hills project.
About this CSAMT Survey
A CSAMT survey's main application is for indirect geologic mapping to identify rock types and characteristics. The survey transmits a signal at a suite of frequencies into the ground and measures the received electric and magnetic fields in the area of interest.
CSAMT surveys have been very successful in delineating lithological boundaries and major fault zones in the Cortez region and can be used to select exploration drill targets on the Golden Trend. The Company engaged Zonge Engineering to complete a 3-line survey covering a 10.8-line kilometre program across the Golden Trend, spaced approximately 900 meters apart. The Survey on Golden Trend will target multiple geological features identified by American Eagle's technical team. With the survey now complete, the Company is interpreting the data and will communicate the final interpretations in the near term.
