High-Grade Delineation Continues at Premier's Mercedes Mine

02.10.2019  |  CNW

THUNDER BAY, ON, Oct. 2, 2019 /CNW/ - Premier Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: PG) (OTCPK: PIRGF) ("Premier", "the Company") is pleased to announce an update on its 42,000 m core drilling program at the Company's 100%-owned Mercedes Mine, located in the State of Sonora, Mexico. The 2019 drilling campaign is currently focused on delineating new mineral resources in the Lupita Extension, while exploration is still testing potential at Neo (Figure 1). Highlights from August and September include, in true thickness:

  • 3.6 m of 7.18 g/t Au & 54.38 g/t Ag (L19-441D)
  • 1.8 m of 24.24 g/t Au & 1.79.43 g/t Ag (L19-445D)
  • 3.4 m of 10.47 g/t Au & 63.60 g/t Ag (L19-448D)
  • 4.4 m of 8.86 g/t Au & 66.69 g/t Ag (L19-451D)
  • 3.1 m of 13.65 g/t Au & 80.01 Ag g/t (L19-429D) at Neo, within a stockwork system similar to Diluvio

"Our Lupita Extension drilling is returning intercepts well in excess of average production grades," commented Stephen McGibbon, Executive Vice-President. "Early results from the San Martin/Neo target area suggest that our 2020 campaign will confirm the potential for significant resource expansion as well".

Lupita Extension

The Phase 2 infill program at Lupita Extension continues to increase potential resource mineralization by demonstrating the continuity of the vein to the west. Figure 1 presents the evolution of the grade thickness map from the beginning of 2019 to today. New results are enlarging the high-grade zones, as well as defining its limit, which will guide the focus of future drilling.

Drilling will delineate the mineralized footprint discovered in 2019 with a 30 m x 30 m grid over the area. In August and September, a total of 34 drill holes, representing 5,855 m of drilling, were completed. An additional 12 drill holes assay results are pending.

Neo Target

Neo represents a potentially new discovery at Mercedes, located 400 m north of San Martin. It was identified as a possible extension to the Diluvio system due to geological similarity. The first hole followed up an historical drill hole, L15-258D that contained 1.53 m @ 6.95 g/t Au & 4.00 g/t Ag. L19-429D, located 110 m to the east, successfully returned 3.1 m of 13.65 g/t Au & 80.01 g/t Ag. Two additional holes drilled to the east had low-grade results, one of which was hosted within 30 m of the same host rock as Diluvio. Drilling in 2020 will further test the potential to expand the mineralization up to 900 m east to Diluvio.
