For Immediate Release. October 23, 2019. Vancouver, BC. David H. Brett, President & CEO, EnGold Mines Ltd., (TSX-V: EGM, “EnGold” or the “Company”) reports that drill hole AZS19-80 intersected 6.18 gpt gold, 0.8 % copper and 2.63 gpt silver over 4.55 metres, including 13.9 gpt gold, 1.55 % copper and 4.8 gpt silver over 0.72 metres, within the Aurizon South gold structure located on the Company’s 100% owned Lac La Hache Property in the Cariboo region of BC. Full results of the two-hole program are tabulated below. Results of EnGold’s 1,500 sample soil survey are still pending. Intercepts are core lengths and not true widths as the true width at the point of intersection has not yet been determined.
“We are encouraged by the continued high grade gold results we are seeing at Aurizon as we step out, over good widths,” said EnGold CEO David Brett. “We believe there is strong potential to increase the grade and tonnage of the Aurizon South Gold maiden resource with further drilling, as the current density of drilling is modest, and the structure is open at depth and on strike to the south.”
“Adding new high grade intercepts to Aurizon Gold is part of EnGold’s larger exploration strategy at Lac La Hache, to build underground-minable tonnes of copper/gold,” said EnGold VP Exploration Rob Shives, P.Geo. “The high grade copper-magnetite skarn, carbonate replacement and gold-rich hydrothermal breccia deposits at Lac La Hache occur at shallow to intermediate depths within larger, alkalic and calcalkalic porphyry systems. In the northern part of the project, newly defined low-grade, bulk tonnage Mo-Cu porphyry potential at Scorpio is completely untested. In the southern part, combined IP chargeability, gravity and magnetic patterns present compelling deeper targets that we look forward to exploring.”
