Serengeti Identifies High Grade Gold in Surface Sampling at Croy Bloom Property

13.11.2012  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/13/12 -- Serengeti Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: SIR)(FRANKFURT: 34S) reports the results of a prospecting and surface rock sampling program conducted in September on the Croy Bloom property located 85 kilometers South of AuRico Gold's Kemess Mine in the Quesnel Trough of north-central British Columbia. A number of rock grab samples returned high grade gold and copper values in an area of the property considered to be highly prospective.


The objectives of the 2012 exploration program were to evaluate an area known as the Karen Cirque and Saddle Gulley Zone, follow-up on a gold-copper-bearing stratiform magnetite unit; and further investigate gold and copper vein, stockwork and porphyry style mineralization historically described to occur in this area of the property.


Sampling Results


A total of 19 rock grab samples, comprising float, subcrop and outcrop, were collected on the Croy Bloom property in early September 2012. Five of the samples assayed between 1.2 g/t and 137 g/t gold with two of these containing elevated silver and tellurium. Three samples returned over 1.0% copper and several contain elevated molybdenum. Most of the mineralized samples are of vein float material collected from within the upper portion of the Karen Cirque, Soup Ridge and an area known as the Saddle Gulley Zone, in the western part of the Croy Bloom property.

Historical drill intercepts from this area include 1.1 g/t Au, 0.39 % Cu over 22m hosted within a sub-horizontal, chlorite-magnetite horizon which apparently outcrops along Soup Ridge for over 1 km; 7.86 g/t Au over 20.5m and 12.34 g/t Au over 5.1m within a separate magnetite quartz zone known as the Saddle Gulley Zone. Other showings in this area include the Croy copper-gold showing which consists of at least six mineralized fractures and veins which occurs to the northeast of the Saddle Gulley Zone. The most significant of these veins consists of massive chalcopyrite-pyrite-magnetite and has been identified along 106 meters in length by 0.84 meters in width and is reported to grade 10.5% Cu, 15.7 g/t Au (see NR 2010-06). Reconnaissance IP surveying by Serengeti in the vicinity of the Croy vein in 2011 identified a strong associated chargeability anomaly some 200 meters in width (see NR: 2011-12).


The results from the current surface sampling combined with prior sampling, limited historical drilling and localized IP geophysical surveying indicates a potential target area some 2 by 3 kilometers in extent. Detailed geological mapping and deeper penetrating systematic IP surveying is warranted in the area to identify drill targets to test for a porphyry copper-gold system at depth.


Serengeti is currently seeking a partner to advance exploration on the Croy Bloom Property in the 2013 season.
