Positive results from a recent sampling program were reported by Even Resources (VSE), which is about to begin a diamond drill program at the Inca de Oro project 50 miles north of Copiapo, Chile.
The company reported that 29 of 34 chip samples from old working on the property averaged 0.095 oz. gold per ton, confirming grades obtained in earlier sampling by others.
Gold mineralization was previously reported to occur in quartz veins and intervening stockworks. However, a third type has now been identified, described as altered pyritic dacite, which has no depth limitations and good potential for bulk tonnages.
Even’s work crew is continuing a US$230,000 program which includes more sampling, geophysical surveys and bulldozer trenching. Diamond drilling will start soon.
