Encouraging Surface Sampling Continues at Miranda’s Pavo Real Project

14.01.2014  |  Business Wire

Miranda Gold Corp. ("Miranda") (TSX-V: MAD) is pleased to announce that Red Eagle Mining (“Red Eagle”), its funding partner at Pavo Real in Colombia, continues to expand and enhance a new area of mineralization associated with closed spaced rhyolitic dikes, veins and hydrothermal breccias and a large gold and multi-element Mobile Metal Ions (MMI) soils anomaly.

On October 8, 2013, Miranda reported gold values in surface channel samples range from 0.23 g Au/t to 33.7 g Au/t and associated metals showing highs of greater than 100 g Ag/t, 0.93% copper and 0.87% zinc.

Recent rock channel sampling (Figure 1) highlights include 9.03 g Au/t and 72.4 g Ag/t over 6.1 m, and 19.8 g Au/t and 64.1 g Ag/t over 1.2 m and are presented in Table 1 below.

These new sample results expand the area of significant surface mineralization to approximately 600m by 700m and ongoing mapping shows a clearer proximal relationship to elongate porphyry bodies parallel to the vein and breccia trends. West north-west and north west trends intersect within a large gold, molybdenum and base metal MMI soil anomaly coinciding with the anomalous channel sampling. Miranda thinks the anomaly is related to intrusive-related hydrothermal brecciation and that surface features may reflect a large breccia pipe or diatreme target at depth.

The higher-grade vein mineralization over significant widths (9.03 g Au/t over 6.1 m) and the vein density also provide an interesting stand-alone target.

Two 2012 Red Eagle drill holes near this new target included 7.1 m averaging 1.54 g/t Au and 0.54 m averaging 9.37 g/t Au encouraging Red Eagle and Miranda to continue sampling in this new and expanding target.

Pavo Real consists of 100% owned concessions in a joint-venture with Red Eagle into which Red Eagle is currently earning a 70% interest.

Project Details

The Project comprises a Triassic-Jurassic sedimentary sequence overlain by a volcanic sequence. The sedimentary and volcanic sequences are intruded by various bodies of diorite, granite and rhyodacite porphyry, and cut by hydrothermal breccias and a large number of quartz veins and quartz stockwork, with sericitic and local potassic alteration. The Project is situated within the Department of Tolima, 20 kilometers south of the city of Ibague and 45 kilometers south-east of AngloGold Ashanti's La Colosa project (reported to be 26.8 million ounce Inferred Resource grading 0.92 g/t Au).

All data disclosed in this press release, including sampling, analytical and test data, have been reviewed and verified by Vice President of Exploration Joseph Hebert, C.P.G., B.Sc. Geology and Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
