Radisson intersects 10.65 g/t Gold over 4.40 m and 21.84 g/t Au over 2.00 m at 900 m vertical depth along Trend #2

 

 

 

 

 

Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RDS) (OTC: RMRDF) is pleased to announce significant high-grade gold intercepts from the 127,600 m exploration drill program completed this summer at its 100% owned O’Brien gold project located along the Larder-Lake-Cadillac Break (see location map 1 and location map 2), halfway between Rouyn-Noranda and Val-d’Or in Quebec, Canada.

 

Key highlights

 

Impressive intercepts along high-grade trend #2

  • 10.65 g/t Au over 4.40 m including 18.68 g/t Au over 2.00 m (OB-22-308W4)
  • 21.84 g/t Au over 2.00 m including 61.50 g/t Au over 0.70 m and;
  • 21.33 g/t Au over 2.00 m including 42.00 g/t Au over 1.00 m and;
  • 10.47 g/t Au over 3.60 m including 31.90 g/t Au over 1.00 m (OB-22-308W7)

 

Current resources along trend #2 are located from surface down to vertical depth of approximately 500 m. Drilling completed during this campaign expanded high-grade gold mineralization 400 m below current resources down to 900 m vertical depth. Results obtained along trend #2 confirmed the resource expansion potential and the presence of wider mineralized zones on the sector including 11.13 g/t over 10.70 m (OB-21-201), 18.42 g/t over 5.00 m (OB-20-180), 8.35 g/t over 6.00 m (OB-20-124), 8.93 g/t over 5.00 m (OB-21-290W1), 8.20 g/t over 7.00 m (OB-21-202) and 8.87 g/t over 5.00 m (OB-21-187).

 

Mineral resource estimate update – Q1 2023

 

The Company is pleased to report that the mineral resource estimate update for the O’Brien gold project is progressing within schedule. The Company is pleased to announce that it now expects the mineral resource estimate to be completed within the first quarter of 2023.

 

We are pleased to report final results from the 127,600 m drill campaign completed in 2022. The main objective of the program started in 2019 was to expand the footprint of the O’Brien gold deposit in a 1.2 km corridor located east of the richest mine by grade in Quebec. This corridor represents less than 25% of the Radisson land holding along the prolific Larder-Lake-Cadillac Break and results have been impressive with 157 intercepts grading over 5 g/t Au within 256 holes published. Results from the 33,200 metres drilled along Trend #2 have been spectacular with 45 intercepts over 5 g/t Au within only 61 drill holes. High-grade gold mineralization has now been expanded down to 900 m vertical depth along Trend #2.

 

Considering the high-grade intercepts and larger widths observed in expansion drill holes along Trend #2 we expect this sector to contribute significantly to the resource estimate update. The resource estimate is progressing within schedule, and we are happy to provide investors a revised schedule for a publication now targeted during the first quarter” Commented Denis Lachance, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

QA/QC

 

All drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d’Or, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 5 g/t Au were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.
