Partners Verdstone Gold (VSE) and Amcorp Industries (VSE) are set to begin a $50,000 work program on the Marion copper-gold property in British Columbia.
Trenching and mapping will test the continuity of two mineralized zones which are separated by a strike length of 4 miles. In addition, a few holes will be drilled using a small, portable, pack-sack rig.
The 3,200-acre property is on Pooley Island, where trenching last fall outlined a mineralized area greater than 1,000 ft. in length. The program resulted in the following assay values: 29.5 ft. of 0.011 oz. gold per ton and 1.2% copper for trench 1; 6.6 ft. of 0.002 oz. gold and 1.66% copper for trench 2; 6.6 ft. of 0.1 oz. gold and 1.72% copper for trench 5; and 6.6 ft. of 0.031 oz. gold and 3.09% copper for trench 6.
A second zone was identified on strike, 4 miles to the southeast. Samples averaged 0.24 oz. gold and 5.61% copper over a 6.6-ft. width. Verdstone reports mineralization is typical of a contact metamorphic deposit.
