Mansfield Expands Arizaro Porphyry Gold-Copper Discovery; Lindero Gold Project-Argentina

01.11.2011  |  Marketwired
DDH ARD-13: 122 m @ 0.75 g/t Au and 0.24% Cu

VANCOUVER, 11/01/11 - Mansfield Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE: MDR) ('Mansfield' or the 'Company') is pleased to report drill results from its second drill program on the Arizaro gold-copper porphyry system located within its 100% owned Lindero project. The porphyry discovery is located 3 km southeast of the Lindero gold deposit. A total of 8 drill holes (3,123 metres) were completed with results reported below.

The Arizaro porphyry system, as defined by drilling, surface sampling and mapped alteration covers a 600 metre by 500 metre surface area. Gold-copper mineralization occurs from surface to a true vertical depth of 300 metres and remains open for expansion in all directions. Mansfield has tested the discovery with 16 drill holes, all of which have significant mineralized intercepts.

Gordon Leask, P.Eng., President and CEO of Mansfield, comments: 'The most recent drill campaign confirms management's belief that Arizaro is a significant gold-copper porphyry system. Arizaro is a gold dominated porphyry system in the Rio Grande - Lindero gold-copper district. Given the limited number of drill holes at Arizaro, and the fact that 4 of the 7 holes encountered individual 2 metre assay intervals exceeding 2.5 g/t gold with a maximum of 4.6 g/t gold, management is extremely encouraged with the gold potential in the discovery. Geological compilation work is underway, including surface mapping, drill hole alteration mapping, and updated structural analysis to focus the target selection for the next drill phase.'


Arizaro Background

The Arizaro porphyry body was identified prior to the discovery of the Lindero gold deposit in 1999. Management initially believed that the surface alteration zone reflected a more deeply eroded porphyry system with geologic similarities to the nearby Rio Grande property. During a field traverse in late 2010, a well mineralized copper-gold breccia fragment was discovered in an otherwise un-mineralized fragmental body. The mineralized fragment was interpreted to be sourced from a mineralized system at depth. Drilling has now confirmed that Arizaro is not deeply eroded and possesses significant exploration potential.
