SLAM Announces Metallurgical Study on Maisie Zone

29.01.2013  |  Marketwired
Preliminary Metallurgical Scoping Study To Test Bonanza Gold-Zone

MIRAMICHI, NEW BRUNSWICK -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/13 -- SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: SXL) (OTCBB: SLMF) ("SLAM") has submitted a 27 kg bulk sample from its wholly owned Menneval gold project in New Brunswick to RPC Science & Engineering ("RPC") of Fredericton for a Preliminary Metallurgical Scoping Study on the Maisie Zone gold discovery. The preliminary metallurgical investigation will involve mineralogy tests to define liberation target grind sizes, gold associations and bench scale scoping gravity separation tests.

The 27 kg sample of quartz vein material with visible gold was collected during the 2012 trenching program from a site referred by Company geologists as the "Jewellery Shop". This site is located in the centre of the Maisie Zone 25 m along strike from hole MG1226 which contains up to 104 g/t gold over 0.3 m as previously reported. Assay results for holes MG1224 to MG1242 are summarized in the table below.

The drilling program has traced the vein system over a 520 m strike length and to a depth of 25 m. Drill hole locations are shown at http://www.slamresources.com/projects/new-brunswick/menneval. The target vein was identified in a trenching program from which the Company reported numerous sites of visible gold with bonanza grade assays as it traced the vein system over a 700 m strike length in 2012. Photos of selected drill core with visible gold can be viewed at http://www.slamresources.com/core-shack/.
