Mega Precious Metals Expands High Grade Gold and Tungsten Mineralization and Commences Fall Drilling Program at Monument Bay

25.09.2014  |  Marketwired
THUNDER BAY, Sep 25, 2014 - Mega Precious Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MGP) ("Mega") is pleased to announce additional drill results from its ongoing drill and OCAP (Old Core Assay Program) which continues to expand the high grade gold and tungsten ("WO3") mineralization at its "Monument Bay Project, located in Manitoba. Mega's 2014 drill program has encountered multiple high grade gold and gold / tungsten (WO3) structures near surface within broader gold mineralized zones with multiple occurrences of visible gold ("VG").


High grade intercepts within the primary resource area include:
  • TL-14-529 intersects 27.3 g/t Au, 0.74% WO3 across 1.5m
  • TL-14-534 intersects 8.73 g/t Au, 0.25% WO3 across 4.0m
  • SR-00-04 intersects 2.09 g/t Au, 0.09% WO3 across 31.5m
  • TL-05-269 intersects 8.28 g/t Au, 0.05% WO3 across 31.3m
  • TL-05-275 intersects 1.55 g/t Au, 0.39% WO3 across 23.9m

The ongoing drill and OCAP program results continue to identify near surface high grade gold/tungsten mineralization, within a broader gold mineralized zone in the upper 100m of the deposit. Some of the gold and tungsten intercepts disclosed today are higher grade compared to what was reported in our June 2013 Twin Lake Resource.

Note: Gold equivalent grade is calculated by multiplying the 3 year average Tungsten price of $50,300/tonne by the%WO3 then dividing by the Gold price $40.12/gram ($1250/ounce), then adding the Gold grade. MZTLD equates to Main Zone Twin Lakes Deposit Tungsten Current Spot price is $42,000/tonne. Gold assays capped at 88.0 gpt as per June 2013 NI43-101 Report. The Company has not determined the economic cut-off grade for and metallurgical recoveries WO3. Down-hole thickness, true width varies depending on drill hole dip; most 2014 drill holes are intersecting the vein structures perpendicularly therefore down hole width are close to true width.


Mega is encouraged by the results presented in Table 1 and 2, which are broadly comparable to previously released drill results in the same area. Mega's fall drill and OCAP program will focus on the expansion of these near surface high grade structures and complete step out holes focused on regional structures as they have the potential to identify additional high grade mineralization within and between the proposed high grade starter pits.

Glen Kuntz, P.Geo, President and CEO, stated, "We continue to advance the Monument Bay project and remain on track to release an updated resource to the market which will include all of our 2013-14 drilling and OCAP results to date. More than 12,000 m of new drilling (2013/2014) and over 10,000m of historical core from 94 drill holes of the OCAP program has yet to be incorporated into a new resource. As such, these current drill results represent only a portion of an overall program designed to bring the high grade mineralization up to surface and upgrade the confidence in the Twin Lakes Deposit mineral resource estimate."

Figure 1 demonstrates continuity of the gold and tungsten mineralization within the new wireframes that will be used in the upcoming resource estimate for the Twin Lakes Deposit.

The Twin Lakes Deposit is one of three gold/tungsten deposits that make up the 338km2 Monument Bay Project which has potential development advantages given the current winter road access to its camp from local communities and Manitoba's Northern Development Strategy which is building all-purpose roads and infrastructure improvements within the region. Once these are complete, Mega will have all purpose roads within approximately 52 km of our project area. The current power lines which connect Red Sucker Lake First Nation and God's Lake Narrows First Nation have very low electricity rates (estimated at $0.02-0.04/kWh) and are approximately 48 km from our project area.


Technical Information

The design of Mega's drilling programs, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and interpretation of results is under the control of Mega's geological staff including qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43‐101 and industry best practices. A detailed review of Mega's QA/QC procedures is filed in the NI 43-101 report dated June 17, 2013 and on SEDAR.

All drill core is transported by Company personnel from drill site to our camp for logging, sampling preparation are completed. Sampling intervals are defined after core logging and determination of scheelite content by examination under short‐wave UV‐light. One half of the core is sent for analysis, while the other half is retained in the core boxes for future reference. All samples are shipped to Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario and analyzed employing the appropriate gold fire assaying technique. For QA/QC purposes the Company as well as the lab submits standards and blanks every 20 samples. Samples are analyzed for W by XRF and assay results for tungsten are reported by the laboratory as W%. WO3 values are calculated using a conversion factor of 1.2611.
