Sitka Expands Alpha Gold Land Package in Nevada

18.03.2021  |  The Newswire
VANCOUVER, March 18, 2021 - Sitka Gold Corp. ("Sitka" or the "Company") (CSE:SIG) (FSE:1RF) (OTC:SITKF) (CNSX:SIG.CN) is pleased to announce that it has located an additional 30 claims at its Alpha Gold Project, located along the southeast projection of the prolific Cortez Gold Trend in Eureka County, approximately 135 kilometres southwest of Elko, Nevada (Figure 1). The Alpha Gold Project now totals 93 claims covering an area of approximately 1860 acres or 753 hectares (Figure 2). The new claims complete coverage of potential mineralization east and southeast of drill hole AG21-03 (see news release dated March 10, 2021).

Key Points Regarding Recent Developments at Alpha Gold:

  • - AG21-03 intersected strong, Carlin-type, alteration at a prime stratigraphic horizon, known as the Webb/Devils Gate contact in the Roberts Mountains, time equivalent to the Horse Canyon/Wenban contact at Goldrush approximately 40 km to the north along the Cortez Trend (Figure 3).

    - AG21-03 is located down dip from surface gold geochemical anomalies to the northwest and up dip from a rhyolitic volcanic and hypabyssal intrusive complex to the southeast.

    - Mercury, arsenic, and thallium results from initial sampling in Webb Fm and Devonian Shale well above the Devils Gate contact east of AG21-03 definitively strengthen towards the rhyolite complex.

    - The emerging mineralization alignment is located in the hanging wall anticline of an interpreted, northwest, moderate angle, thrust fault and spatially associated with normal faults carrying Carlin age rhyolite dikes. The moderate angle thrust fault is broadly analogous to the Abyss thrust at the Pipeline deposit located at the northern end of the Cortez Trend (Figure 3).

Cor Coe, Director and CEO of Sitka comments: "The importance of some of these geological features was not fully recognized prior to the information gathered from these latest drill holes. We knew this area contained all of the basic elements of a Cortez Trend, Carlin-type gold deposit and now the initial drilling has shown us where those elements are. Our systematic approach to testing our geological model and adjusting its parameters as new data is collected continues to successfully advance the Alpha Gold Project. The Company plans on continuing with an aggressive follow-up drilling program pending assays results for AG21-03 and continued geological assessment."

About Alpha Gold

Sitka Gold has acquired a 100% interest in the Alpha Gold Project, located along the southeast projection of the prolific Cortez Gold Trend in Eureka County, approximately 135 kilometres southwest of Elko, Nevada. The Property is comprised of 2 claim blocks totalling 93 lode claims covering an area of approximately 1860 acres (753 hectares) and is accessible via a dirt road, approximately 2km west of Nevada State Highway 278.

The Property was initially staked after the location was recognized as the intersection of the regional-scale Pine Valley anticline with northeasterly fold trends exposed in the Roberts Mountains. Of primary importance at the Alpha Gold location is that the rocks have been down-dropped significantly by late extensional faulting. Prior to extension, and during the critical 36-42 Ma Carlin-type mineralization event, the fold crest at Alpha Gold would have been a regional highpoint among nearby mountain ranges. Well exposed 'lower plate windows' near Alpha Gold have been extensively explored for Carlin-type gold deposits with a number of deposits found along the limbs.
