加拿大阿尔伯塔省卡尔加里-(Newsfile Corp.-2022年9月21日)-Aurwest Resources Corporation(CSE:AWR) ("奥韦斯特“或”公司“)宣布在其位于纽芬兰中部的天堂湖金矿项目完成的第二阶段钻探计划的最终钻探结果。第二阶段包括七个总计1,050米的孔,以跟进与第一阶段钻探相交的低品位金矿化。天堂湖的钻探计划包括18个钻孔,总计3796米。
Highlights of the drilling program are:
钻探计划的亮点是:
- Hole DDH PL-22-12 intersected 5.43 g/t Au over a 0.5m core interval in PL-22-12.
- Four of the seven drill holes completed as part of the Phase 2 drilling intersected 16 intervals with greater than 0.1g/t gold over core intervals ranging from 0.5 to 10.90m.
- The 18 hole (3,796m) program returned 50 intervals with gold concentration in excess of 0.1g/t over core intervals ranging from 0.5 to 10.9 m widths.
- Higher grade intervals of include; 6.21g/t Au over 0.5m in DDH PL-22-01, 6.00g/t Au over 0.5m and 7.75g/t Au over 0.5m core intervals in DDH PL-22-07and 5.43g/t Au over a 0.5m core interval in DDH PL-22-12.
- Native gold was observed in quartz veins in DDH PL-22-07.
- Holes PL-22-01 and PL-22-16 are interpreted to have intersected the same mineralized zone estimated to be over a strike length of 250 meters beneath Twin Ponds. This zone is open to the East and West.
- DDH PL-22-12井在PL-22-12井的0.5m岩心间隔内相交5.43g/t Au。
- 作为第二阶段钻探的一部分,完成的七个钻孔中有四个相交于16个井段,岩心井段从0.5米到10.90米,含金量超过0.1g/t。
- 18孔(3796米)程序返回了50个岩层,岩心宽度从0.5米到10.9米不等,黄金浓度超过0.1g/t。
- 较高品位段包括:DDH PL-22-01的0.5m以上Au 6.21g/t,DDH PL-22-07 0.5m岩心段Au 6.00g/t,0.5m岩心段Au 7.75g/t,DDH PL-22-12 0.5m岩心段Au 5.43g/t。
- 在DDH PL-22-07的石英脉中观察到自然金。
- 据解释,孔PL-22-01和PL-22-16与同一矿化带相交,据估计,该矿化带在双池塘下的走向长度超过250米。这一区域向东西两面开放。
Mr. Colin Christensen stated, "The drilling intersected multiple widths of gold mineralization ranging from near surface to depth of approximately 180m below surface localized along the contacts of the Twin ponds syenite intrusions. The multiple episodes of gold bearing quartz veins suggest a once active hydrothermal center carrying native gold, arsenopyrite and pyrite mineralization. It is believed that secondary faults/structures intersecting the main Northeast tending intrusive corridor may also contain significant gold mineralization as is supported by drilling results and the recent discovery of gold mineralization in outcrop 4.5km northwest of Paradise Lake."
Colin Christensen先生说:“钻探涉及多个宽度的金矿化,从近地表到地表以下约180米的深度,沿着双子池正长岩侵入体的接触定位。多期含金石英脉表明,一个曾经活跃的热液中心携带着自然金、毒砂和黄铁矿矿化。钻探结果和最近在天堂湖西北4.5公里露头发现的金矿床支持,与东北主要倾向侵入走廊相交的次级断层/构造也可能包含重要的金矿化。”
Phase 2 Drilling:
第二阶段钻探:
The target tested by the drilling program is part of a nearly 10 km long trend identified from surface samples that returned gold concentration ranging from 0.05 to 144.7g/t gold. Numerous chargeability targets remain to be tested, identified from the 2021 IP geophysical survey.
钻探计划测试的目标是近10公里长趋势的一部分,该趋势是从地表样品中发现的,返回的黄金浓度从0.05克/吨到144.7克/吨不等。从2021年IP地球物理调查中确定的许多可收费目标仍有待测试。
Hole PL-22-16 intersected a 10.9-meter core interval of 0.21 g/t Au. This zone of shallow pyrite-arsenopyrite mineralization is apparent in the 2021 IP geophysical results as a chargeability high. The host rock consists of various phases of syenite, diorite and mafic dykes with local xenoliths of other intrusive and felsic volcanic rocks. Alteration consists of variable degrees of fine-grained interstitial chlorite-carbonate-K-feldspar-pyrite and quartz-sericite-ankerite. Quartz veins vary from laminated, massive, breccia and stockwork-like. They are often vuggy and contain fine-grained pyrite and arsenopyrite. Only veins that contain significant arsenopyrite-pyrite content returned significant gold concentrations. Mineralized intervals containing greater than 0.1g/t gold from Phase 2 program are set out in Table-1 below:
PL-22-16孔与10.9米长的岩心相交,岩心厚度为0.21g/t Au。这一浅层黄铁矿-毒砂成矿带在2021年IP地球物理结果中表现为高充电性。主岩由不同阶段的正长岩、闪长岩和镁铁质岩墙组成,局部包体为其他侵入岩和长英质火山岩。蚀变由不同程度的绿泥石-碳酸盐-钾长石-黄铁矿和石英-绢云母-铁角闪石组成。石英脉有层状、块状、角砾岩和网状等。它们通常是洞穴状的,含有细粒黄铁矿和毒砂。只有含有大量毒砂-黄铁矿含量的矿脉才能返回大量的金。第二阶段项目中含金量大于0.1g/t的矿化间隔如下表1所示:
Notes: The cut-off selected for determining the weighted average for the mineralized intervals was 0.1g/t gold. No limitation placed on the sample interval. Gold grades are rounded. Intervals reported in table are core intervals and do not represent true width.
备注确定成矿层段加权平均值的下限为0.1g/t金。对采样间隔没有限制。黄金等级是四舍五入的。表中报告的间隔是核心间隔,并不代表真实宽度。

The hole collared into sediments consisting of cross bedded greywacke and maroon siltstone until end of hole. Bedding appears steeply dipping to the east. The syenite contact was not intersected as was anticipated. Two mafic dykes were intersected at 20 and 70m depth and are 1 and 3.5m wide. Only trace amounts of fine-grained pyrite and chalcopyrite were intersected in the mafic dykes.
PL-22-14(159m, 040 o, -45 o)位于PL-22-13以西160米处。它的目标是一个广泛的正电阻率特征。井眼由交错层理的杂砂岩和栗色粉砂岩组成,直至井底。层理似乎向东陡峭倾斜。正长岩的接触并没有像预期的那样相交。两条镁铁质岩墙相交,深度分别为20米和70米,宽分别为1米和3.5米。镁铁质岩脉中只有少量细粒黄铁矿和黄铜矿相交。
PL-22-15 (155m, 105 o, -45 o) is located 290m west of collar PL-22-01/02. It targeted the mineralization intersected in hole PL-22-01/02, and chargeability high beneath North Twin Pond. It collared into siltstone from 12-17m depth. Syenite was intersected from 17-34m, 35-41m, and 43-155m depth, each separated by thin bedded siltstone and greywacke. The intrusions range from glassy pink to grey plag-phyric and medium grained holocrystalline. Numerous zones contain trace amounts of fine-grained, disseminated pyrite and in quartz veins 1-5cm thick. Alteration includes patchy, pink K-feldspar-chlorite-leucoxene-ankerite alteration.
PL-22-15(155m, 105 o, -45 o)位于环PL-22-01/02以西290米处。它的目标是与PL-22-01/02孔相交的矿化,以及北双子池下方的高可充电性。它从12-17米深进入粉砂岩。正长岩相交深度分别为17~34m、35~41m、43~155m,分别由薄层粉砂岩和杂砂岩隔开。侵入岩范围从玻璃色粉红色到灰色原状和中粒全晶。许多带中含有微量的细粒浸染状黄铁矿,在1-5厘米厚的石英脉中。蚀变包括斑片状、粉红色钾长石-绿泥石-白蜡石-铁角闪石蚀变。
PL-22-16: (137m, 115o/-45 o) is located on the west side of North Twin Pond drilling southeast towards hole PL-22-12 and 100m south of PL-22-15 along the same linear syenite intrusion. The hole collared into interbedded green-grey wacke and maroon argillite from 8.7-58m depth and syenite intrusion to end of hole. Pyrite-arsenopyrite ranges from trace amounts up to 7% interval within the syenites over broad intervals up to 15m. Fault zones and brecciated syenite contain arsenopyrite mineralization related to quartz veining. Alteration includes pervasive k-feldspar with zones of strong ankerite, sericite and chlorite.
PL-22-16:(137m, 115o/-45 o)位于北双池钻井的西侧,朝孔PL-22-12和PL-22-15以南100米,沿同一线性正长岩侵入。该井眼由8.7~58m深的绿灰色泥岩和褐泥岩互层组成,正长岩侵入至井底。黄铁矿-毒砂的范围从正长岩中微量到7%的间隔,范围很宽,最长可达15m。断裂带和角砾状正长岩中含有与石英脉有关的毒砂矿化。蚀变包括广泛分布的钾长石,并有较强的铁角闪石、绢云母和绿泥石。
PL-22-17: (122m, 295o/-45 o) is located roughly 50m south of hole PL-22-07 testing the same mineralized structure observed in PL-22-07. The hole collared in syenite and intersected 3 distinct syenites before contacting interbedded green-grey wacke and maroon argillite. Five weakly mineralized zones are identified. Based on analytical results, no intervals contained greater that 100 pb gold. Quartz veins are very thin and contain trace amounts of pyrite. Alteration is patchy and consists of k-spar, sericite, chlorite and ankerite, where ankerite and sericite is local, and chlorite and k-spar are more prominent.
PL-22-17:(122m, 295o/-45 o)位于孔PL-22-07以南约50米处,测试与在PL-22-07中观察到的相同矿化结构。该孔被正长岩套住,与3个截然不同的正长岩相交,然后与互层的绿灰泥岩和褐泥岩接触。共识别出5个弱矿化带。根据分析结果,没有任何一段时间的黄金含量超过100 PB。石英脉非常薄,含有微量的黄铁矿。蚀变呈斑块状,由钾石、绢云母、绿泥石和铁闪石组成,其中铁闪石和绢云母为局部蚀变,绿泥石和钾石较为突出。

Exploration Update:
探索更新:
Property wide prospecting and mapping at the Miguel's Lake, Stony Caldera, and Paradise Lake Projects began in May. In total 530 rock samples have been collected from outcrop, subcrop and angular float. Results have been received for 306 of these samples, 29 of which returned >50 ppb Au up to 4.03 g/t Au. Prospecting has identified several areas of outcropping quartz veining and pyrite-mineralization with rare visible gold. This area is 4.5 km northwest of Phase 1 and Phase 2 drilling area at Twin Ponds. Detailed spot chip sampling of the outcrop returned from 1.60 to 4.03 g/t gold, and 3.06 g/t silver in four samples over an exposure of ~15 meters length. Channel sampling is planned to further assess the potential widths and grade of this high priority target.
Miguel‘s Lake、Stony Caldera和Paradise Lake项目的全物业勘探和测绘于5月开始。共采集露头、次露头和角状漂浮岩样530个。已收到306个样品的结果,其中29个样品的金回收率>50 ppb,最高可达4.03克/吨。勘探发现了几个露头的石英脉和黄铁矿矿化区域,具有稀有的可见金。该区域位于第一阶段钻探区域西北4.5公里处,第二阶段钻探区域位于双池塘。露头的详细斑点芯片样本在约15米长的曝光时间内返回了1.60到4.03克/吨的金,以及3.06克/吨的银。计划进行渠道抽样,以进一步评估这一高优先级目标的潜在宽度和等级。
Exploration Model:
探索模式:
The Paradise Lake-Stony Caldera properties are considered to have potential to host "Orogenic" and "Intrusive Related" styles of gold mineralization comparable to the Valentine Lake, Cape Ray, Moosehead, and Queensway gold deposits. They are hosted within the Cape-Ray-Valentine Lake ("CRVL") structural zone. Linear magnetic intrusions of granodiorite/syenite occur in the vicinity of Twin Ponds-Paradise Lake. They are situated along primary or secondary structures to the CRVL. Airborne magnetic data and ground IP surveys have revealed coincident anomalies and multiple phases of intrusive activity. High-grade gold bearing, "leakage" structures have been sampled at surface and intersected in drilling. Similar structural zones elsewhere in the property have been targeted for follow up exploration in 2022.
Paradise Lake-Stony Caldera矿藏被认为具有与瓦伦丁湖、雷角、慕斯黑德和金钟道金矿床相媲美的“造山型”和“侵入型”金矿化类型的潜力。它们位于开普雷瓦伦丁湖(“CRVL”)构造带内。花岗闪长岩/正长岩的线性磁性侵入作用发生在双池-天堂湖附近。它们位于CRVL的初级或次级结构上。航磁数据和地面激电探测揭示了一致的异常和多阶段的侵入活动。高品位含金“渗漏”构造已在地面取样,并在钻探中交会。该地产其他地方类似的构造带已被确定为2022年的后续勘探目标。
