Northern Gold Intersects 9.42 g/t Au Over 2.5m and Outlines Significant IP Anomaly at Buffonta

18.04.2013  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 04/18/13 -- NORTHERN GOLD MINING INC. (TSX VENTURE: NGM) ("Northern Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results of six additional diamond drill holes from ongoing surface diamond drilling, as well as preliminary results from a ground induced polarization ("IP") survey on its Buffonta Property, comprised within the Golden Bear Project, 100 km east of Timmins, Ontario.


Drill assay highlights of the drill holes include:



-- 9.42 g/t Au over 2.5m (78.5 to 81.0m) BUF-12-04
-- 9.54 g/t Au over 1.0m (315.0 to 316.0m) BUF-13-06
-- 25.40 g/t Au over 1.0m (111.0 to 112.0m) BUF-13-07
-- 7.19 g/t Au over 1.0m (20.0 to 21.0) BUF-13-08


Drilling


The six drill holes (BUF-12-04, BUF-13-05 to BUF-13-05-09) totaled 2,040 metres. All drill holes successfully intersected gold mineralization at various depths. To date, 24 drill holes totaling 8,128.5 metres have been completed on the Buffonta Kerr grid during the current drilling program. Assay results for the initial 9 holes have now been released.


Drill holes BUF-12-04, BUF-13-05 and BUF-13-06 were collared from a single drill setup on L27+50 to test the western extension of the mineralized zone underlying the Kerr Pit. These three holes were fan-drilled at inclinations of -60 degrees grid south, -60 degrees grid north, and -90 degrees (vertical), respectively to trace stratigraphy and provide information on vein and alteration thickness.


Drill hole BUF-13-07, collared on L26+50 as an undercut of BUF-12-01, was drilled grid south at an inclination of -45 degrees to determine the extent of the initial vein system and structure.


Drill holes BUF-13-08 and BUF-13-09, collared 50 metres apart on L25+50, were drilled grid north at an inclination of -45 degrees, as step outs from the Kerr Pit into Zone No. 4 to the east. Both holes encountered the kimberlitic structure and quartz vein/alteration zone with associated gold mineralization.


To date, drilling has confirmed a series of shallow dipping stacked gold mineralized veins/alteration zones over a minimum strike length of 200 metres from the Kerr Pit to the east, with mineralization open to the north and south. Gold mineralization has been intersected at a vertical depth of over 275 metres. The kimberlitic fault structure shows a south-dipping, E-W trending fault system interpreted as a conduit for the gold mineralizing fluids. Gold mineralization occurs on both the hanging wall and footwall of the fault structure.

Surface IP Survey


Northern Gold completed a ground IP survey during the winter exploration program on the Buffonta Kerr grid. A total of 46 line kms of the grid covering the area between the Kerr Pit and No. 5 and 6 Zones was surveyed using pole-dipole time domain IP. Preliminary results indicate the presence of a strong NW-SE-trending chargeability anomaly with a strike-length of approximately 900 metres and widths of up to 600 metres to the southwest of the area currently being drilled. A portion of the southwestern edge of the chargeability anomaly is coincident with a 400-metre long resistivity anomaly that suggests that the shallow mineralized quartz veins/alteration zones may be approaching surface. Northern Gold has retained the services of a consulting geophysicist to provide data interpretation and modeling of the chargeability and resistivity anomalies to guide ongoing drilling and exploration on the Buffonta Kerr exploration grid.


Quality Assurance/Quality Control


Northern Gold has implemented comprehensive, industry standard quality-assurance, quality-control protocols for diamond drilling, core recovery, handling, sampling, shipping and assaying. Details of these best practice principals can be viewed on the Company's website at: http://www.northerngold.ca/QA-QC.php.


The technical aspects of this press release have been reviewed and approved by Gary Nassif, M.Sc., P.Geo., Manager Exploration Services of Northern Gold and the "Qualified Person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 for the Golden Bear Project.
