Rye Patch Gold's Garden Gate Pass Project on Major Discovery Trend

21.02.2012  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/21/12 -- Rye Patch Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE: RPM)(OTCQX: RPMGF) ('Rye Patch' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce an update on the Company's 100% owned Garden Gate Pass project located along the Cortez trend - one of Nevada's most prolific gold trends.


HIGHLIGHTS:



-- Barrick Gold has connected the Red Hill and Goldrush deposits and
doubled the gold resource from their September 6, 2011 announcement;
-- The gold trend has 8 kilometres of gold deposits starting from the Horse
Canyon mine to the ET Blue gold deposit and remains open toward the
Garden Gate Pass project;
-- Rye Patch's 2011 drilling campaign intersected lower plate lithologies
in 4 of 6 drillholes, and encountered thick zones of Carlin-style
alteration with geochemically anomalous gold and pathfinder elements;
and
-- Using the data points generated from the 2011 drill program, Rye Patch
is refining its drill targets and plans to commence drilling in May 2012
pending drill rig availability.


On February 16, 2012, Barrick announced a new resource on their Red Hill and Goldrush complex of 1.3Mozs gold in the indicated category, and 5.7Mozs gold in the inferred category. The new resource doubles the resource previously announced on September 6, 2011, and shows the immense potential of the district. Barrick's drilling along the north-south trend has connected the two discoveries and indicates the gold zone is open in multiple directions including toward the Garden Gate Pass project.


'Barrick's recent summary of the Goldrush and Red Hills gold complex shows the gold system is extremely strong with robust gold grades and gold intercepts immediately north of the Company's Garden Gate Pass project. Rye Patch's 2011 drill program confirmed the presence of lower-plate host lithologies along with thick alteration zones with geochemically anomalous gold and known Carlin-style pathfinder elements. A refinement of the target areas using the drillhole information and re-processing our gravity and magnetic geophysical surveys will provide better resolution on the target areas for the next round of drilling,' stated William C. Howald, President and CEO of Rye Patch Gold.


Using the depth to lithology, structure and alteration in the six drillholes completed in 2011, Rye Patch's contract geophysicist, Terry White, will constrain the geophysical gravity and magnetic models to honor the recently acquired sub-surface information. The new constrained models will better define the gold trend and depth to the permissive lower-plate lithologies. This iteration process is required for projects with pediment gravels or cover rocks above the ore zones. The Garden Gate Pass project lies within a gravel covered valley. The claims cover an area of 13 square kilometres immediately adjacent to Barrick's newly discovered Goldrush and Red Hill gold deposit complex. Drill results to date indicate the project is along a major gold trend with significant upside potential that will be addressed in the upcoming drill program.


The size of the summer drill program has not yet been determined but will employ a combination of reverse circulation pre-collars with core tails. This drill methodology will give the geologic team a better understanding of the host rock lithologies, structure and potential ore zones. A budget of $1,000,000 is proposed.
