Project operator Adrian Resources (VSE) is reporting the discovery of massive sulphide mineralization on the Sky Creek property in the Iskut River region of northwestern British Columbia.
Adrian can earn a 51% interest in the property from Skyline Gold (TSE). The mineralized showings (gold-silver-
zinc-lead-copper) were discovered at low elevations along a roadway connecting the Johnny Mountain and Snip mine sites.
The initial discovery of volcanogenic semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralization on the SMC showing was made by a prospecting crew. Initial sampling results returned 0.094 oz. gold and 3.73 oz. silver per ton, 0.69% lead, 14.6% zinc and 0.66% copper. Subsequent sampling of the discovery site returned values up to 0.81 oz. gold and 4.71 oz. silver, 1.79% lead, 23.2% zinc and 5.94% copper.
Additional mineralization was discovered some 394 ft. to the southeast which returned encouraging values in gold, silver, lead, zinc and copper. A subparallel zone of semi-massive to massive sulphide mineralization was also discovered nearby (assays from sampling are pending), and other targets remain to be tested.
More stripping, trenching, mapping, sampling, and pros-pecting work is planned for the Sky Creek property, to be followed by a diamond drill program.
