Goldshore Expands Near Surface Mineralized Shears with 25.0m of 1.10 g/t Au at the Moss Deposit

 

 

 

 

 

 

Goldshore Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GSHR) (OTCQB: GSHRF) (FWB: 8X00), is pleased to announce its latest assay results from its ongoing 20,000-meter drill program and the second batch of results from the QES Up program, targeting the near surface extension of the most northern QES shears at the Moss Gold Project in Northwest Ontario, Canada.

 

Michael Henrichsen, CEO of Goldshore commented, “We are pleased with the ongoing positive results from our winter drill program, which has allowed us to test the previously undrilled upper central part of the Moss Gold Deposit. Historically undrilled areas had been modelled as waste, but these new drill results will enable us to model mineralized shears toward the surface, enhancing the deposit’s economic potential. We look forward to continuing our aggressive drilling to create value.”

 

Highlights:

  • Results from hole MQD-25-160, along the eastern end in the QES Up program, intersected a widening of the near surface extension of the deeper shears yielding increased mineralization with best intercepts of:
    • 25.0m of 1.10 g/t Au from 107.2m in MQD-25-160, including
      • 2.05m of 1.69g/t from 111.1m and
      • 7.65m of 2.62 g/t Au from 117.55m
  • Results from three additional QES Up holes confirmed near surface extension of the deeper marginal shears representing further opportunities to convert modelled waste to mineral resource within the current conceptual open pit with best intercepts of:
    • 19.75m of 0.45 g/t Au from 123.1m in MQD-25-151, including
      • 0.3m of 8.87 g/t Au from 126.5m
    • 6.0m of 1.34 g/t Au from 131.0m in MQD-25-152
    • 11.85m of 0.36 g/t from 148.15m in MQD-25-158

 

Technical Overview

 

Figure 1 shows the location of the drill holes being reported with respect to the planned winter drill program, while Figure 2 illustrates a cross section through drill hole MQD-25-160. Tables 1 & 2 summarize significant intercepts and drill hole locations, respectively.

Drill results are from the eastern portion of the QES Up program, which aims to prove the surface extension of deeper-modelled mineralized shear zones along the northern boundary of the QES Zone. This area lies entirely within the conceptual open pit, with all mineralized intersections representing opportunities to convert currently modelled waste to mineral resource.

 

MQD-25-160 was drilled between holes MQD-25-152 and MQD-25-158 targeting both the near-surface extension of deeper modelled shears and the potential northern deflection of the QES mineralization. The hole collared into a similar weakly deformed and chlorite-epidote altered diorite with a more consistent zone of sericite-silica-hematite altered shearing, like that seen in the core of the QES zone (Figure 3). The sericite-silica-hematite shears are strongly mineralized with intercepts of 25.0m of 1.10 g/t Au from 107.2m, including 2.05m of 1.69 g/t from 111.1m and 7.65m of 2.62 g/t Au from 117.55m (Table 1). The increasing grade towards the northeast is being interpreted as a sinistral drag structure similar to that observed between the Main and Southwest Zones.

 

The hole was terminated within the mineralized QES envelope, as the deeper sections of the Zone have been sufficiently tested by previous drilling.

Holes MQD-25-151 and MQD-25-152 were drilled on 100m sections, targeting surface extensions of deeper-modelled mineralized shear zones along the northern boundary of the QES Zone. Both holes collared into a weakly deformed and chlorite-epidote altered diorite with intermittent sericite-silica-hematite altered shear zones increasing in intensity at depth. The sericite-silica-hematite shears are moderately mineralized with intercepts including 19.75m of 0.45 g/t Au from 123.1m in MQD-25-153, including 0.3m of 8.87 g/t Au from 126.5m; 16.15m of 0.48 g/t Au from 88.0m, and 6.0m of 1.34 g/t Au from 131.0m in MQD-25-152 (Table 1).

 

Both holes were terminated within the mineralized QES envelope, as the deeper sections of the Zone have been sufficiently tested by previous drilling.

 

MQD-25-158 was drilled 400m further east than MQD-25-151 and MQD-25-152 targeting similar surface extensions of deeper modelled shears and confirming the eastern extension of the QES system. The hole collared into similar a weakly deformed and chlorite-epidote altered diorite with intermittent sericite-silica-hematite altered shear zones increasing with intensity at depth with intercepts of 11.85m of 0.36 g/t from 148.15m. The hole was extended to intercept the typical QES granodiorite at 262m confirming the orientation of the main QES host lithology with results of 13.5m of 0.38 g/t Au from 254.45m (Table 1). The hole was terminated prior to drilling through the entirety of the QES zone.

Analytical and QA/QC Procedures

 

The HQ diameter drill core has been oriented using ACTIII or equivalent tools and validated in the core shack. All core has been sawn in half cut just off the core orientation line (bottom of hole) with the right half (looking downhole) of the core bagged and sent to a third-party analytical laboratory. The left half of the core was returned to core boxes and is stored at Goldshore’s Kashabowie core yard facility.

 

All samples were sent to ALS Geochemistry in Thunder Bay for preparation and analysis was performed in the ALS Vancouver analytical facility. ALS is accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for the Accreditation of Mineral Analysis Testing Laboratories and CAN-P-4E ISO/IEC 17025. Samples were analysed for gold via fire assay with an AA finish (“Au-AA23”) and 48 pathfinder elements via ICP-MS after four-acid digestion (“ME-MS61”). Samples that assayed over 10 ppm Au were re-run via fire assay with a gravimetric finish (“Au-GRA21”).

 

In addition to ALS quality assurance / quality control protocols, Goldshore has implemented a quality control program for all samples collected through the drilling program.  The quality control program was designed by a qualified and independent third party, with a focus on the quality of analytical results for gold. Analytical results are received, imported to our secure on-line database and evaluated to meet our established guidelines to ensure that all sample batches pass industry best practice for analytical quality control. Certified reference materials are considered acceptable if values returned are within three standard deviations of the certified value reported by the manufacture of the material. In addition to the certified reference material, certified blank material is included in the sample stream to monitor contamination during sample preparation. Blank material results are assessed based on the returned gold result being less than ten times the quoted lower detection limit of the analytical method. The results of the on-going analytical quality control program are evaluated and reported to Goldshore by Orix Geoscience Inc.
