Apr 12, 2016 (C Salo) - Diamond drilling by Wright-Hargreaves Mines is reported to have yielded anomalously elevated gold tenors ranging from 0.02 to 0.09 ounce of gold per ton from core lengths ranging from 0.4 to 8.0 feet which are associated with quartz stringer and associated pyrite and/or chalcopyrite mineralization, calcite stringer and associated pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization, and pyritic feldspathic material near a porphyry/greenstone contact. Country rocks in the area include andesite, rhyolite, porphyry, siliceous porphyry, and syenite. The Durham occurrence is approximately along strike from and is likely spatially associated with the same south southeast striking structure with which the Gunnar and Creek Zone deposits are associated (several hundred metres south southeast of the Durham occurrence).
