Dakota Territory Resource Corp Surface Sampling Program Identifies High Grade Gold Mineralization at Blind Gold Property

24.09.2014  |  GlobeNewswire

Reno, Nevada, Sept. 24, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dakota Territory Resource Corp. (OTCQB: DTRC) ("Dakota Territory" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from the Company's first surface sampling program conducted on its 100% owned Blind Gold Property in the northern Black Hills of South Dakota. The program identified a zone of high grade gold mineralization in the Mississippian-age Pahasapa Limestone on surface, with a peak gold assay value of 9.44 grams per tonne.

The Company's first pass surface sampling program was focused on tertiary-aged gold mineralization in the younger sedimentary and intrusive formations that cover Dakota Territory's primary targets at the Blind Gold Property, which are hosted in the underlying Homestake Iron-Formation. A total of 37 grab and pick samples were collected across the Blind Gold Property, with the most notable results returned from 14 samples taken in close proximity to historic workings located to the east of Tetro Rock at the center of the property:

Tetro Rock Area Assay Results
Sample Number Location Rock Type Gold (grams/tonne)
BG11-008 North Pit Limestone 9.440
BG11-009 North Pit Limestone 0.455
BG11-010 North Pit Limestone 0.037
BG11-011 South Pit/Adit Limestone 5.170
BG11-012 South Pit/Adit Limestone 2.410
BG11-013 South Trench Limestone 7.220
BG11-014 Intermediate Pit Limestone 1.140
BG11-021 Intermediate Trench Intrusive 0.007
BG11-022 Intermediate Trench Intrusive 0.010
BG11-023 Intermediate Trench Limestone 0.015
BG11-024 Intermediate Trench Intrusive 0.007
BG11-025 Intermediate Trench Limestone 0.592
BG11-026 Intermediate Pit/Adit Limestone 0.064
BG11-027 Intermediate Pit/Adit Limestone 4.610
Note: Peak gold values greater than 1.0 grams per tonne are italicized.

The historic workings in the Tetro Rock area include numerous pits, trenches and shallow adits excavated over a horizontal distance extending approximately 540 meters along the indicated North - South trend of mineralization. Samples collected by Dakota Territory were taken from the outcrop and dumps created by the historic mining activity over the entire length of the trend. Gold mineralization in the Tetro Rock area appears to be hosted in flat lying, silicified layers of Pahasapa Limestone that have been cut by vertical fissure veins proximal to a Tertiary-aged Phonolite laccolith. Nearly 5 million ounces of gold has been produced from Tertiary-aged gold deposits in the Homestake District. Such deposits are most commonly hosted in the Deadwood Formation; however, significant historic gold production has been realized from similar deposits hosted in the Pahasapa Limestone at Carbonate Camp, located approximately 5 kilometers to the west of the Blind Gold Property.

All program samples collected are point or grab samples from in situ rock outcrop, dumps from historic workings, or float. Sample size averaged 2 kilograms ("kg") in weight, with none being less than 1.3 kg. Samples were bagged and tagged in the field then retained in secure storage at the Company's local field office until shipment. Shipment was by Fedex to Sparks, Nevada.

All sample preparation and fire assaying work has been performed by American Assay Laboratories Inc. ("American Assay") in Sparks, Nevada. American Assay is an ISO 17025:2005 accredited laboratory. Samples were fire assayed with a 1 assay ton (30 gram) aliquot with induced coupled plasma ("ICP") finish. Internal laboratory quality controls were relied upon for these reconnaissance-style samples. These controls included re-runs and the insertion of both blank and Standardized Reference samples.

About Dakota Territory Resource Corp

Dakota Territory Resource Corp. is a Nevada Corporation with offices located at Reno, Nevada. Dakota Territory is committed to creating shareholder value through the acquisition and responsible exploration and development of high caliber gold properties in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

In terms of total historic US gold production, the Black Hills ranks second only to the Carlin District of northeast Nevada, with the gold production of the Black Hills concentrated in a 100 square mile area known as the Homestake District. Dakota Territory maintains 100% ownership of three mineral properties including the Blind Gold, City Creek and Homestake Paleoplacer Properties, all of which are located in the heart of the Homestake District and cover a total of approximately 3,057 acres. The Blind Gold Property is located approximately 4 miles northwest and on structural trend with the historic Homestake Gold Mine. Through its 125 year production history, the Homestake Gold Mine produced approximately 40 million ounces of gold and is the largest iron-formation-hosted gold deposit in the world

In the 1980's and 1990's Homestake Mining Company undertook a $70 million exploration program managed by Richard Bachman, president and chief executive officer of Dakota Territory that was focused primarily on the search for a repeat of the Homestake Mine. This program successfully discovered significant new gold mineralization beyond the confines of the producing mine, demonstrating repeatability and the potential for additional gold deposits in the Homestake iron-formation host. This program also proved the continuous extension of the Homestake iron-formation to a distance of approximately 4 miles from the producing mine and under the Blind Gold Property.

Dakota Territory Resource Corp. is uniquely positioned to leverage Management's extensive exploration and mining experience in the Black Hills of South Dakota with Homestake Mining Company. For more information on Dakota Territory, please visit the Company's website at http://DakotaTRC.com/.
