Trenching at the Stibnite Zone discovered new veins in outcrop that have now been exposed over 35 meters and show epithermal characteristics including banding, cockscomb and vuggy textures.

Key Points: 
  • Trenching at the Stibnite Zone discovered new veins in outcrop that have now been exposed over 35 meters and show epithermal characteristics including banding, cockscomb and vuggy textures.
  • The newly identified quartz veins strike in a northeast direction, are steeply dipping and are individually up to 60 centimeters wide.
  • Trenching at the West Zone also successfully exposed epithermal quartz veining over an additional 10 meters from an outcrop occurrence historically containing 4.59 g/t gold from selective grab sample.
  • Samples taken from these zones were predominantly quartz and quartz carbonate vein material visually containing up to 1% fine grained pyrite+/-arsenopyrite+/-chalcopyrite.

So every trench, pit, and added area we find that carries gold grade moves the Company to increased shareholder value, and we are still only touching the shallow, near-surface levels.

Key Points: 
  • So every trench, pit, and added area we find that carries gold grade moves the Company to increased shareholder value, and we are still only touching the shallow, near-surface levels.
  • Add to that the previously-announced agreement with Tang Se communities means shareholders know the project can move towards a more advanced stage.
  • Picture (above and on right side) Trenching followed the previous pit program, with pits 10 metres spaced apart.
  • The trench was stopped after 38 metres and revealed approximately 25 metres of flat lying quartz vein with minor pyrite and galena.

The survey was carried out by Simcoe Geoscience, using their Alpha IPTM Wireless Time Domain Induced Polarization (IP) system.

Key Points: 
  • The survey was carried out by Simcoe Geoscience, using their Alpha IPTM Wireless Time Domain Induced Polarization (IP) system.
  • Preliminary interpretation of the IP data has confirmed several previously identified airborne geophysical anomalies that coincide with areas of coincident pyrite and arsenopyrite and weak-moderate gold mineralization in the Botwood sandstone.
  • A new zone has been discovered on the western side of the survey grid, west of the Bay d\'Espoir highway.
  • "\nNews Releases from other companies active in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt continue to increase the profile of this newly emerging gold district.

Anomalous silver values greater than 1 g/t in eleven samples in an anomalous zone covering an area of 500 by 600m.

Key Points: 
  • Anomalous silver values greater than 1 g/t in eleven samples in an anomalous zone covering an area of 500 by 600m.
  • Heliostar geologists have identified an anomalous silicified structure with pyrite that returned a 1-metre channel sample grading 390 g/t silver and which remains open to expand.
  • Heliostar Exploration VP, Sam Anderson, commented, "We are excited by the silver results from the start of the Cumaro sampling and mapping campaign.
  • In Mexico, the company owns 100% of three early stage epithermal projects in Sonora that are highly prospective for gold and silver.

We have now received assay results, which have exceeded expectations, for half of the holes drilled by Freeman.

Key Points: 
  • We have now received assay results, which have exceeded expectations, for half of the holes drilled by Freeman.
  • We now have confirmed that gold mineralization continues at depth and will be working on follow up work to maximize this discovery."
  • The mineralized zones have varying amounts of sulphides (pyrite, chalcopyrite, bornite, molybdenum, and occasionally arsenopyrite) where free gold is common.
  • Freeman Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration company focused on the development of its 100% owned Lemhi Gold property (the "Lemhi Project").

The holes tested a shear/vein system along a granodiorite contact defined by rock and soil geochemical anomalies coincident with a magnetic anomaly.

Key Points: 
  • The holes tested a shear/vein system along a granodiorite contact defined by rock and soil geochemical anomalies coincident with a magnetic anomaly.
  • DDH OL20004 (Az 280/ Dip -45) intercepted several significant intervals of mineralization.
  • Mineralization is typically associated with arsenopyrite and pyrite with gold grade generally increasing near the contact between the sheared granodiorite and the surrounding metasedimentary schists.
  • A lower intercept from 128.52m to 131.54m returned 3.13 g/t Au over 3.02m, including 5.32 g/t Au over 1.16m.
