Great Atlantic’s focus will be on the new gold discovery that was trenched open in winter of 2012.
Drill Results
A total of three holes were drilled totalling 192 meters. The targeted shear zone structure was intersected in the drill core but was not mineralized to same degree as observed on surface. A total of 22 core samples over three mineralized zones were sampled over lengths of 8, 12 and 4 meters. Core was analyzed by ALS Canada Ltd. in North Vancouver by 33 element four acid ICP-AES. Gold results ranged from <0.005 to 0.082 ppm over the mineralized zones which are considerably lower than assays received from surface trenching and float samples. Patrick Forseille, P.
