Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 3, 2024) - RUA GOLD Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF) (WKN: A4010V) ("RUA GOLD" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an exploration update for its Glamorgan Project in the Hauraki Goldfield, on the North Island of New Zealand and situated 2.8km north of OceanaGold Corporation's ("OceanaGold's") Wharekirauponga Project ("WKP") which has indicated resources of 1.01 Moz at 15.9 g/t1.

溫哥華,不列顛哥倫比亞省—(新聞發佈公司 - 2024年10月3日)—RUA GOLD Inc.(TSXV: RUA)(OTCQB: NZAUF)(WKN: A4010V)("RUA GOLD"或"公司")很高興爲其位於新西蘭北島豪拉基黃金礦田Glamorgan項目提供勘探更新,位於OceanGold Corporation("OceanGold")的Wharekirauponga項目("WKP")以北2.8公里處,後者表明資源量爲1.01 Moz,平均品位爲15.9 g/t1。

The Company was granted a Minimum Impact Access Agreement ("MIA") from the Department of Conservation ("DoC") for its Glamorgan Project in August 2024. Following this, the exploration team was mobilized and has made excellent progress, including:

公司於2024年8月獲得了新西蘭環境部("DoC")頒發的Glamorgan項目最低影響訪問協議("MIA")。隨後,勘探團隊展開行動,並取得了出色進展,包括:

  • collecting 2,000 of the planned 3,000 soil sample program;

  • completing the first full phase of UAV drone magnetic geophysical surveying; and

  • commencing ground geological mapping.

  • 完成了計劃中3,000樣本方案的2,000個土壤樣本採集;

  • 完成了首個UAV無人機磁地物勘測的全面階段;

  • 開始進行地面地質測繪。

Based on initial surface soil geochemistry, interpreted geophysical structures, and geological mapping, there is preliminary evidence that the Glamorgan Project has the hallmarks of a significant epithermal gold system, with surface features similar to the adjacent WKP gold deposit. Further exploration work is required to confirm whether a significant epithermal gold system exists.

根據初步地表土壤地球化學、解釋地球物理結構和地質測繪,初步證據表明Glamorgan項目具備重要的熱液型黃金系統特徵,地表特徵類似於相鄰的WKP黃金礦牀。需要進一步的勘探工作來確認是否存在重要的熱液型黃金系統。

Following its surface exploration work, the Company will design a drill program and apply for a full Access Agreement by the end of the year to commence drilling at the Glamorgan Project.

在表層勘探工作之後,公司將設計一個鑽探方案,並計劃在年底申請全面訪問協議,以在Glamorgan項目展開鑽探。

On March 7, 2024, OceanaGold included the accelerated development of WKP in New Zealand's newly introduced Fast Track Approvals Bill, creating a road map for RUA GOLD. This Bill was introduced by the New Zealand Government in March 2024, and aims to provide a streamlined 'one stop shop' decision-making process to facilitate the delivery of infrastructure and development projects, including mining projects with significant regional or national benefits.

2024年3月7日,OceanGold將新西蘭新引入的快速批准法案中的WKP項目加快發展,爲RUA GOLD制定了發展路線圖。該法案由新西蘭政府於2024年3月引入,旨在提供簡化的「一站式」決策流程,以促進基礎設施和開發項目的交付,包括對區域或國家利益重大的採礦項目。

Robert Eckford, CEO, commented: "This is pleasing progress on the ground at our Glamorgan Project, and important verification of the historical work of Newmont and OceanaGold. The preliminary evidence of an epithermal system gives strong encouragement to have drill locations selected by the end of the year. The geology in the region is exceptional, as evidenced by the results coming from OceanaGold's nearby WKP project, and we see the exact same surface features at our Glamorgan Project. We have mobilized a highly experienced operating team with decades of region-specific geological knowledge."

首席執行官羅伯特·埃克福德表示:「這是我們格拉摩根項目的實地進展令人滿意,也是紐曼和奧克斯金歷史工作的重要驗證。先導熱液系統的初步證據強烈鼓舞了年底之前選擇鑽井地點的決心。該地區的地質條件異常優越,正如奧克斯金附近WKP項目的成果所示,我們在格拉摩根項目中也看到完全相同的地表特徵。我們已經動用了一個擁有幾十年區域特定地質知識的高度經驗豐富的運營團隊。」

Geochemistry

地球化學

Preliminary pXRF soil results of the initial 1083 samples show strong arsenic anomalism (max 981ppm As) in southwest and northeast zones mirroring the historical trends. Arsenic is a reliable pathfinder closely associated in many gold deposits. These results complement the data collected from previous work of Newmont and OceanaGold soil analysis. Observed surface quartz vein outcrop (recognised by the soil teams) lie central to these geochemical anomalies. Initial gold results are anticipated in late October 2024.

初步pXRF土壤結果顯示,最初的1083個樣本中,西南和東北地區顯示出強砷異常(最高981ppm As),與歷史趨勢相一致。砷是許多黃金礦牀中常見的可靠指示性元素。這些結果與紐曼和奧克斯金之前土壤分析收集的數據相輔相成。觀察到的地表石英脈露頭(由土壤團隊識別)位於這些地球化學異常的中心。初步黃金結果預計將於2024年10月底出現。

Geological Mapping

地質編圖

Detailed Anaconda style geological mapping has highlighted outcropping quartz veins, breccias and silicified alteration enveloping this veining. Strong banding, quartz-adularia, quartz breccia, and platy quartz after calcite are described in situ. The range of veins, and geographic spread of the vein and alteration observed indicate exposure of a very large fossil epithermal gold system.

詳細的安納康達風格地質編圖突出了露頭的石英脈、角礫岩和硅化蝕變包圍這些岩脈。現場描述了強磁性條帶、石英-萊茵石、石英角礫岩和方解石變成板狀石英。所觀察到的岩脈範圍和地理分佈以及觀察到的岩脈和蝕變暗示了一個非常龐大的化石熱液型金礦系統的露頭。

Magnetic (UAV Drone) Surveying

磁力(無人機)測量

Ultra detailed magnetic surveying over a 3 kilometre by 5 kilometre area has provided a glimpse of very strong northeast structural faulting, along with circular features interpreted to represent rhyolitic domes adjacent to andesite flow units. These observations on the raw total magnetic field are preliminary. As the Company works on filtering the data, they will be looking to identify features of magnetite destruction (alteration) that accompanies and envelopes significant epithermal mineralisation.

在一個3公里乘以5公里的區域內進行的超詳細磁力測量提供了關於非常強烈的東北結構性斷層的一瞥,同時還解釋了圓形特徵,被認爲代表安山岩穹頂鄰近安山岩流單元。這些對原始總磁場的觀察是初步的。隨着公司對數據進行過濾,他們將致力於識別伴隨幷包圍重要熱液礦化的磁鐵礦破壞(蝕變)特徵。

Environmental Studies

環保研究

Work has commenced to establish baseline environmental requirements on drill sites as we work to submit our Access Agreement to allow for drilling. This work is ongoing and will be submitted before the end of the year.

已經開始進行鑽井現場基線環境要求的建立工作,以便提交我們的准入協議,以便進行鑽探。這項工作正在進行中,並將在年底之前提交。

QAQC Soil Samples

QAQC土壤樣本

A bulk sample of ~0.5-1 kg was collected in the field at the Company's Waihi base, and couriered to RGL's office for preparation. Samples were dried in a customized incubator, set at 38°C, for a minimum of two days. Once the samples were fully dried, they were sieved to <180 μm in size. A sub-sample of 50-100 g was scooped from the <180 μm size fraction for analysis. The remaining material was retained and stored in Reefton.

在公司Waihi基地採集了約0.5-1公斤的大樣本,快遞到RGL辦公室處理。樣本在定製的孵育器中以38°C的溫度乾燥,至少兩天。樣本完全乾燥後,篩分至小於180微米。從小於180微米的部分中取出50-100克子樣進行分析。剩餘物料保留並存放在Reefton。

A 50-100-g fine-sieved (<180 μm) soil sample was sent to ALS Geochemistry, Brisbane for Au-TL43 analysis. The analysis consisted of 25-g sample digestion by aqua regia, followed by trace Au analysis by ICP-MS. The detection limit for Au by this method is 1 ppb. Approximately 5% of the samples were analyzed for a full multi-element suite using a 4-acid digest and ICP-MS finish.

將一份50-100克經過精篩的(小於180微米)土壤樣本寄送至ALS Geochemistry,Brisbane進行Au-TL43分析。分析包括用王水消化25克樣品,隨後通過ICP-MS進行微量Au分析。該方法對Au的檢出限爲1 ppb。約5%的樣品使用4酸消解和ICP-MS後處理對全套多元素進行分析。

ALS Brisbane is independent to RUA GOLD.
