Decade Resources's Drilling at Del Norte Indicates 37.50 g/t Au eq over 7.01 m

18.01.2022  |  Newsfile
Stewart, Jan. 18, 2022 - Decade Resources Ltd. (TSXV: DEC) ("Decade" or the Company) announces that it has received the remaining assays for the last 8 drill holes from the 2021 program on the Del Norte property, located 34 km east of Stewart in BC's "Golden Triangle". It was optioned from Teuton Resource Corp. in January of 2020 with terms allowing the Company to earn up to a 55% interest in the property by spending $4 million over a five year period. The Company can an earn an additional 20% interest by carrying the property to commercial production.

The 2021 drilling tested the contact of felsic volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group and sedimentary rocks of the Salmon River Formation. This is the same horizon that hosts the Eskay Creek mine 60km north of Stewart. Drilling was from drill platforms located on rock islands (nunataks) within the South Nelson Glacier. The 2021 drilling was successful in testing for extensions of 2020 gold-silver drill hole intersections on the Argo/LG zone.

Ed Kruchkowski, President of the Company comments; "The Company was very successful in outlining additional numerous silver rich and gold-silver areas for further exploration along the Argo/LG system. Our drilling was restricted to available rock islands but with the recession of glacial ice, these will have become bigger for the up coming 2022 program. The newly identified Argo zone will be one of the exploration targets in 2022." The 2021 program tested the zone over a strike length of 1.2 km and 300 m of depth. The surface expression of the zone occurs below glacial ice to the east of the pads. In 2022, the Company plans to test the deep porphyry copper-gold as well as SP zone along the Kosciuszko structure provided it can raise the funds. Our plan is to earn the 55% interest this year."

Highlights of drilling into the Argo zone include:

  • 60.5 g/t Au and 660 g/t Ag over 3.6m in DDH-21-12
  • 11.72 g/t Au and 3074 g/t over 2.29m in DDH-21-15

Analytical values have been rounded. True widths are unknown at this time.

*Gold-equivalent values for gold, silver and base metals, calculated assuming 100% metal recovery. Assumptions: US$23.46/oz silver, US$1818.15/oz gold:, copper $US4.43/ lb. lead $US 1.08/lb. and zinc $US 1.62/lb.

The Del Norte property contains numerous mineralized zones. The two most important mineralization events are associated with quartz veins and breccias which are spatially restricted to felsic packages and the footwall contact of thrust zones as well as porphyry copper-gold. In the area of thrusting, quartz veins and breccia include the Argo/LG Vein/LG Extension Zone, Kosciuszko Zone/ SP, Eagle's Nest, and New. The Argo/LG Vein/LG Extension Zone has been traced over 1.2 km while the New zone was observed over 100 m of strike in a high mountain pass between 2 ice fields. The Kosciuszko/SPzone has been traced over 1.2 km as well while the Eagle's Nest zone has been traced over 400m.These are marked by a distinct alteration halo, with a propylitic zone constituting the outer envelope of the mineralization. Galena, sphalerite, pyrite and minor chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite are common in these quartz veins
