Jun 10, 2010 (D Draper) - In drillhole DL-83-29, bearing 270 deg., a 0.5m sample from a unit of intercalated felsic tuff and chert assayed 2000 ppb Au. No significant Zn results were obtained in this hole. Hole DL-83-48, also bearing 270 deg., was collared 30m due west of 29. A unit of magnetite-bearing chert, mineralized with disseminated and stringer py, po and sphalerite, returned an average of 0.82% Zn over 1 m. A sample taken 7.5m lower in the same unit assayed 0.85% Zn over 0.5 m. (T-2443)
