Aurvista Gold Corporation Expands Main Porphyry Zone at the Douay Gold Project

03.04.2017  |  Marketwired

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Apr 3, 2017) - Aurvista Gold Corp.'s ("Aurvista" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:AVA)(OTCQB:ARVSF)(FRANKFURT:AV2) is pleased to provide a second update on the ~30,000 metre diamond core drilling campaign from the Company's Douay Gold Project ("Douay"). Aurvista has now received gold assays for an additional 10 drill-holes (see Aurvista's press release February 22, 2017 for results from the initial 6 drill-holes). The Company received significant gold assay intervals in nine (9) of the 10 recently completed drill-holes, with the most notable results extending known mineralization up to 500 metres along strike to the northwest of the Main Porphyry Zone. Highlighted results are listed below:

  • 0.59 g/t gold over 31.5m (DO-17-155)
  • 1.26 g/t gold over 12.0m (DO-17-156)
  • 0.83 g/t over 23.2m, 0.98 g/t over 13.4m and 1.05 g/t over 19.0m (DO-17-158)
  • 0.79 g/t / 34.5m (DO-17-169)

Jean Lafleur, President and CEO of Aurvista, stated: "We continue to test the horizontal and vertical extensions of known gold zones at Douay. Six (6) of the 10 new drill-holes were targeting portions of the potential western/northwest extensions at the Main Porphyry Zone. Ten (10) more drill-holes have been completed at the Main Porphyry Zone with assays pending and another 10 holes are still planned to test the full 1,500 metre potential west-northwest and east-southeast extensions. This latest drilling (including DO-17-169) appears to have added an additional 500 metre strike length to the northwest of the Main Porphyry Zone."

Full drill results from the latest 10 drill-holes can be viewed in Table 1 below:

Jean Lafleur, President and CEO of Aurvista, added: "Ninety-three percent of the reported assays have returned intervals with grades greater than, or equal to the 0.5 g/t cut-off gold grade that was used by Micon to calculate mineral resources at Douay. We are very pleased with these latest results, as the drilling continues to expand the gold mineralization at the Main Porphyry Zone, which still remains open in several directions."

To-date, 11,363 metres have been drilled and completed in 29 drill-holes, which represents approximately 38% of the designed program. Drill results are still pending for 13 of the 29 completed drill-holes. The diamond core drilling campaign is progressing on schedule and on budget with three operating diamond core drills now on site. Drilling permits have been issued for the remaining ~17,000 metres of drilling. Refer to Figure 1 at the bottom of this news release to view the east-west gold bearing structural corridors, conductor anomalies and various gold zones being drill tested at Douay. Additional maps and figures will be added to the Company's website as they become available.

There are two overarching objectives of the current ~30,000 metre drill campaign: (1) to prove the new geological model by extending the known mineralization along east-west corridors in proximity to and within known gold zones; and (2) to outline additional higher gold grades in the range of 3 to 15 g/t gold, and lower grades in the 0.3 to 1.5 g/t gold, all with the aim of expanding and connecting several individual zones.

Drill results to-date have provided favourable indications that previously "un-mineralized" segments of the Douay West and the Main Porphyry zones are in fact mineralized. All of the drilling from the current campaign will be included in an updated resource estimate that the Company plans to complete by year end.
