Ashley Gold Corp. Intersects High-grade 41 g/t Au with Visible Gold at the Tabor Property Maiden Drill Program

26.10.2023  |  The Newswire
Highlights
- TL-23-001 intersects 41 g/t Au over 1m including visible gold from 60.5-meters - Deeper mineralization confirmed in addition to main workings
- Metallic Screening of TL-23-001 shows coarse fraction of 535 g/t Au
- Mineralization in quartz flooding into wall rock shows elevated Au values
- Maiden Program Successfully Confirms High-Grade Nature of Tabor


CALGARY, October 26th, 2023 - Ashley Gold Corp. (CSE:ASHL) ("Ashley" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the assay results for the maiden drill program at the Tabor property. Mineralization was intersected in all holes drilled and all objectives have been reached to advance the project to the next phase.

Darcy Christian, President of Ashley, commented, "This is a great result for Ashley and its shareholders. We have confirmed high grade mineralization of the area as well as deeper mineralized potential identified by historical drilling. We see mineralization into the wall-rock at the vein interfaces which will become important for stoping widths in a production scenario. Grade variability is to be expected in these high-grade systems, the fact we have hit mineralization in all holes is a significant finding especially when considering we have only drilled 550-meters to date. I am looking forward to continued exploration drilling at Tabor and our new Sakoose acquisition."

Discussion

TL-23-001 was drilled to test the main vein system and deeper potential. Unfortunately, the collar location was west of ideal placement due to access constraints and the hole is interpreted to have drilled into the eastern side of the QFP/mafic contact before target depth. To test the deeper historical 838 g/t Au*, Ashley will need to target this from the lake in a winter drill program as done in historical programs. TL-23-002 was modified from predrill plans based on this to test north along the historical workings. It intersected grades of 0.40 g/t Au averaged over 2m from a depth of 110m highlighting the potential of the deeper mineralization interpreted from historical drilling and quartz veining described within the shaft. TL-23-003 and TL-23-004 were drilled to test the shallow potential of the main vein. TL-23-003 correlates to the better historical underground assay results and ran 11.60 g/t Au over 1m while TL-23-004 was drilled near a 'leaner' zone in the underground assays and ran 2.94 g/t Au over 1m. TL-23-005 was testing the western extension of the vein and intersected elevated gold values at both the main vein and deeper target returning 1.11 g/t Au over 1m.

Metallic screening of the 60.50m to 61.50m sample in TL-23-001 confirms the presence of coarse gold seen in the core with +100 mesh size running 535 g/t Au (Table 2). Mesh fines of -100 ran 33.1 and 33.6 g/t Au with a weighted average of 41 g/t Au.

Darcy Christian commented "Although we were unable to get an appropriate angle to test the deep potential of the historical 838 g/t Au* reported we now have modern data to help with targeting upcoming programs". We do see evidence of mineralization below the main workings and metallic screens show the high-grade potential of the vein sets. I believe that with these results we have the justification to spend some more effort on a deeper program from the lake and complete some multi-elemental and structural analysis to help understand Tabor and the larger overall Project area. We are seeing elevated values of gold in the wallrock around veins suggesting wider zones of mineralization can be targeted."
