“ Partial assays from Hole 1 to 1,052m downhole depth at the Varela target return 72m @ 2.16 g/t Au, including 24m @ 5.77 g/t Au
Assay results from 1,052m to end of hole at 1,708.1m including free gold and porphyry mineralisation are pending.
Gold mineralisation is associated with a strongly phyllic-altered zone within diorite host rock containing quartz veins and fractures with 1-2% pyrite, 0.4-1.2% realgar, and lesser chalcopyrite and molybdenite.
Visible gold is identified at 1,216m and zones of porphyry-style mineralisation in the form of a notable increase in sulphide mineralisation in magmatic breccias and B-type quartz veins, containing pyrite-chalcopyrite-molybdenite occurs from 1,260-1,680m depth”
