Cache d’Or drilling at Dubisson bet

A drilling program on Cache d’Or Resources’ Dubuisson property in northwestern Quebec, adjoining Kiena Gold Mines on the east is again cutting into a high grade intersection.

Last year hole No 55 intersected 10.5 ft of quartz tourmaline vein material starting at 475.5 ft carrying numerous occurrences of visible gold. This was sampled and assayed in duplicate, averaging 2.08 oz per ton.

President A. Mitto says in order to check the spatial extension of this high grade coarse gold occurrence, the first hole of the present program, hole No 78, was drilled vertically on the same section and 25 ft south of No 55.

No 78 intersected similar coarse gold in a series of quartz-tourmaline-carbonate veins and veinlets from 408 ft to 426 ft which returned 1.68 oz gold over 18 ft, uncut (0.45 cut).

The second hole No 79 was drilled vertically 25 ft east and 25 ft north of No 78 and returned two gold intersections. The first one returned 0.06 oz per ton over 13.0 ft from 338 ft to 351 ft and the second returned 0.12 oz over 7.0 ft and 0.08 oz over 13 ft from 380 ft to 393 ft.

Another vertical hole, No 81 drilled 50 ft east and 25 ft north of No 55 returned at the same approximate depth a quartz-tourmaline vein accompanied by a series of quartz veinlets which returned 0.72 oz over 5 ft (0.52 cut) from 464 ft to 469 ft.

Mr Mitto says the company plans to continue detailing this high grade occurrence with a few more holes. It also intends to investigate the one-mile east-west gap between its east and west boundaries in the search for competent andesite embayements along the ultramafites formation. Mr Mitto says these embayments seem to be the favorable site for this gold-bearing quartz-filled fracture system.
