Radisson intersects 6.9 g/t Gold over 7.1 M within wider intercept of G/T AU over 21.4 m at O’Brien

Posted on by

Radisson Mining Resources Inc.{TSX.V: RDS}  has released additional results from the 21,800-metre drill program completed in 2017 at the O’Brien gold project located along the Cadillac break halfway between Rouyn-Noranda and Val d’Or in Quebec, Canada.

The best intercept was 7.1 m au within a wider intercept of 3.9 g/t over 21m.

RADISSON INTERSECTS 6.9 G/T GOLD OVER 7.1 M WITHIN WIDER INTERCEPT OF 3.9 G/T GOLD OVER 21.4 METERS AT O’BRIEN

 

.

Radisson Mining Resources Inc.{TSX.V: RDS}  has released additional results from the 21,800-metre drill program completed in 2017 at the O’Brien gold project located along the Cadillac break halfway between Rouyn-Noranda and Val d’Or in Quebec, Canada.

.

As disclosed on multiple occasions in 2017 (see May 9, June 20, Sept. 12 and Nov. 8 press releases) the company continues to confirm the vertical and lateral continuity of high-grade gold intercepts within wider lower-grade mineralised halo on the 36E zone of the O’Brien deposit.

.

Press release highlights:

  • Hole OB-17-55 intersected 11.8 grams per tonne gold over 2.4 metres and 6.9 g/t Au over 7.1 m within 3.9 g/t Au over 21.4 m at depth of 261.6 m and 275.9 m, respectively, on the 36E zone.
  • Today’s results are from 2,259 m of drilling (six drill holes), assays are currently pending from approximately 2,834 m of drilling (11 drill holes).
  • Resource growth potential highlighted by the 31,800 m of drilling completed on 36E, Kewagama and Vintage zone north of the O’Brien deposit since 2016.
  • Resource estimate update under way at O’Brien. The company expects to publish results from the updated resource estimate during the first quarter of 2018.
  • Historical drill core relogging and assaying ongoing on 36E where 28 shallow historical drill holes were selected relogged and sent for assaying.

.

“Current results continue to demonstrate strong mineralization continuity and resource growth potential on both 36E and Kewagama zones. The fact that we continue to encounter high-grade gold mineralization within wider lower-grade halo at various depths is encouraging. The relog and assaying program of shallower historical drill holes represents a game-changing opportunity for the expansion of the O’Brien deposit moving forward. We are also excited about the second phase exploration drilling program well under way on the Vintage zone. The drilling program should deliver more insight on the potential of the new zone identified a few metres north of the deposit in 2017,” commented Mario Bouchard, president and chief executive officer.
