Orefinders Resources Inc. Updates on Pacific Precious Milestones and 2019 Exploration Results

07.11.2019  |  CNW
News brief:

Pacific Precious, a private company which Orefinders owns 31%, concluded its summer 2019 exploration program at its Kuta Ridge project. Multiple channels samples including 28.6 gpt gold over 1.5 metres were assayed along with the identification of four styles of gold mineralization on the property which confirm an epithermal system. Pacific Precious is on track to go public in Q1 2020 vis-à-vis a plan of arrangement.

TORONTO, Nov. 7, 2019 - Orefinders Resources ("Orefinders" or the "Company") is pleased to report that Pacific Precious ("Pacific") has concluded its exploration program and is progressing in parallel with its going public process planned for Q1 2020. As a part of Pacific's going public process, Orefinders plans to dividend a significant portion of shares that it owns in Pacific directly to Orefinders shareholders.

Exploration results from the Kuta Ridge project point towards an epithermal-style gold deposit that merits further exploration given the varied styles of gold mineralization present and the high grades encountered on surface during current and previous exploration programs.

Pacific Precious Summer 2019 Exploration Program

The exploration program followed up on Pacific's 2018 sampling program conducted which delineated a 6km long, north-south trending gold corridor on the Kuta Ridge Project where numerous high grade gold veins were located in surface bedrock. Additionally, four distinct types of high-grade gold mineralization were identified within the 6km long trend including:

  1. low-sulphide veins up to 0.5 metres width;
  2. high-grade quartz-arsenopyrite veins and breccias;
  3. sulphide veins with massive pyrite and;
  4. high-grade ribboned and brecciated quartz-pyrite veins with abundant visible gold.

Results from channel sampling include:

  • 28.6 gpt gold over 1.5 metres
  • 7.0 metres grading 1.56 gpt gold (including 1.0 metre sample returning 5.93 gpt)
  • 14.5 gpt gold over 0.15 metres
  • 41.0 gpt gold over 0.20 metres

Previously unknown mineralization was also delineated along the lower part of Koitman Creek at an elevation of ~1,650 metres above sea level (370 metres below the crest of Kuta Ridge). This is significant as it demonstrates that fluids boiled over a large vertical range, providing potential large range of gold deposition.

Compilation of Historical Work

Pacific Precious acquired and compiled historical data from the Kuta Ridge property. Exploration was conducted in the late 1980s and early 1990s by Picon and Kennecott and included stream, outcrop and float sampling, as well as drilling. One hole drilled by Picon returned 1.6 gpt over 10.2 metres, including 66.0 gpt gold over 0.3 metres in a quartz-arsenopyrite vein.

Next Steps

The Kuta Ridge property checks the major boxes for a gold discovery with the presence of high grade gold mineralization on surface in bedrock and in float, major fault structures and a history of artisanal and alluvial gold production. We believe that the major challenge now facing the project is to locate areas where these mineralized structures expand to minable widths and the best approach is still probably prospecting and hand trenching supplemented by mechanical stripping where appropriate.  Moving forward, Pacific Precious' priority will be to identify the source of the high-grade quartz-arsenopyrite and quartz-pyrite visible gold boulders in the Kuta Ridge trenching area. Six targets have been identified for further prospecting and trenching and part of the next phase of exploration.

"We are very encouraged with the results to date as we continue to develop our understanding of the geological and structural controls of the epithermal system at Kuta Ridge. The next phase of exploration will include further prospecting and trenching, and drilling with the ultimate objective of delineating a multimillion ounce epithermal gold deposit on the Kuta Ridge property," said Charles Beaudry, P.Geo and CEO of Pacific Precious.
