Orsa Receives Conditional Approval for Quartz Mountain and Angel's Camp Option Agreements

15.11.2011  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire - Nov. 15, 2011) - Orsa Ventures Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ORN) ("Orsa" or the "Company") announced today that it has launched its new website: www.orsaventures.com.

The Company has also received conditional approval from the TSX Ventures Exchange for the previously announced option agreement (the "Agreement") with Seabridge Gold Inc. ("Seabridge") (TSX:SEA) (NYSE Amex:SA) whereby a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seabridge ("SGC") has granted Orsa the exclusive option to earn a 100% interest in the Quartz Mountain Gold Property ("Quartz Mountain") and all of SGC's undivided 50% beneficial joint venture interest in the adjacent Angel's Camp Gold Property ("Angel's Camp"), together, the "Properties"). Both properties are located in Lake County, southern Oregon on the northern extension of the Basin and Range Province of Nevada. Both properties are subject to underlying royalties and Angel's Camp is subject to the 50% joint venture interest of Golden Predator Corp. ("Predator") (TSX:GPF).


Quartz Mountain

The Quartz Mountain Property, consisting of 86 unpatented lode mining claims, is a volcanic-hosted, hot-spring gold deposit. Gold mineralization occurs extensively within late Miocene rhyolite porphyry domes and adjacent basaltic flows, tuffs and volcaniclastic rocks.

An April 12, 2002 National Instrument 43-101 compliant report on Quartz Mountain (the 43-101 Report) prepared by Winters, Dorsey & Company resulted in an historical resource estimate as follows*:

                  Measured & Indicated                   Inferred
Deposit Tonnes Au gpt Au ounces Tonnes Au gpt Au ounces
Crone Hill 47,666,000 0.90 1,378,000 27,098,000 0.63 551,000
Quartz Butte 10,146,000 0.99 323,000 17,701,000 0.86 492,000
Total 57,812,000 0.92 1,701,000 44,799,000 0.72 1,043,000

*While the foregoing mineral resource estimate was completed in accordance with the requirements of NI 43-101 as of the date of publication, the Company cautions that an Orsa engaged qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves, and therefore, the historical estimate should not be relied on as actual resources or reserves.


Angel's Camp

The Angel's Camp Property consists of 158 unpatented lode mining claims and is contiguous with the Quartz Mountain Property. Mineralization at Angel's Camp is part of the large, district-scale epithermal mineralizing system associated with Tertiary volcanic activity. The bonanza vein system is hosted within late Miocene, rhyolite, porphyry domes and adjacent tuffs and volcaniclastic rocks.

Drilling at Angel's Camp, to date, has focused on high grade veins with five of nine holes drilled in 2004 returning gold assays of greater than 3.42 gpt. The highest grade intercept of a 2009 drill program completed was 17.11 gpt over 4.6 metres (true width not identified). Both drill programs confirmed the existence of bonanza-style gold mineralization within broad intercepts of lower, potentially bulk mineable, grades within surrounding volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks such as occurs at Quartz Mountain.

Angel's Camp will be operated under a joint venture agreement (the "JV Agreement") between Predator and SGC, with Orsa being responsible for SGC's obligations under the JV Agreement, and is required to maintain SGC's percentage interest, during the term of the option in respect of the Angel's Camp property. Under the terms of the JV Agreement, Predator is the operator on Angel's Camp.

The properties have significant exploration upside for both high grade vein systems and lower grade bulk mineable mineralization.
