Pure Gold Intersects Bonanza Grade Gold Including 108.5 g/t Gold Over 1.0 Metre at Madsen Red Lake

30.07.2019  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, July 30, 2019 - Pure Gold Mining Inc. (PGM – TSX-V) (“Pure Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that surface drilling at the Madsen Red Lake Mine (“Madsen”) continues to confirm and expand the Wedge deposit extents with several bonanza grade gold intercepts returned from initial 2019 exploration drilling. Surface drilling at the Wedge deposit has demonstrated the potential for these zones to continue to grow, with gold intercepts returned both up- and down-plunge of the current mineral resource.

Drilling highlights:

  • Infill and step-out drilling has been defined to upgrade and expand resources in the Wedge area. Drilling result highlights include:
    • 108.5 g/t gold over 1.0 metre from drill hole PG19-643;
    • 94.6 g/t gold over 1.0 metre from drill hole PG19-654;
    • 13.8 g/t gold over 1.0 metre from drill hole PG19-649.
  • Two drill rigs are currently active on the project with one rig currently targeting growth at the Wedge resource, and one rig testing the Fork EXT target.

A summary table of the results is set out at the end of this News Release.

“This first round of results continues to demonstrate the continuity of our geological model and has reinforced the high grade nature of both the Wedge deposit and the broader Madsen gold system as a whole,” stated Darin Labrenz, President and CEO of Pure Gold. “In less than two years, we have made a new discovery at Wedge, established it firmly as part of a related, five kilometre long gold system and have rapidly developed a brand new mineral resource in the Red Lake mining district. With this understanding of the scale and tenor of gold mineralization firmly established, we are now drilling to expand and define this extensive gold system.”

The Company’s 2019 Exploration Program is designed to focus on the Wedge deposit and along strike extensions with a goal of growing and upgrading the gold resources. Initial discovery drilling in 2018, quickly established a high grade mineral resource at Wedge with a current indicated resource of 107,000 ounces of gold at 10.3 g/t gold (in 322,000 tonnes), and an inferred resource of 79,000 ounces of gold at 8.0 g/t gold (in 307,000 tonnes).1,2 The resources at Wedge form a part of a series of genetically and geometrically related high grade gold zones that span a five kilometre structural corridor from Madsen to Wedge, with expansive gaps along strike and down plunge that remain highly prospective for additional resource growth. This marks the second major exploration campaign, designed to expand this brand new deposit and further demonstrate the size and strength of the overall gold system at the Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine.

Previously released drilling highlights from Wedge include3:

  • 15.1 g/t gold over 5.4 metres from drill hole PG16-215;
  • 33.3 g/t gold over 8.3 metres from drill hole PG17-467;
  • 21.3 g/t gold over 10.3 metres from drill hole PG17-486;
  • 19.9 g/t gold over 3.3 metres from drill hole PG18-564;
  • 354.0 g/t gold over 1.0 metre from drill hole PG18-540;
  • 32.9 g/t gold over 1.7 metres from drill hole PG18-600; and
  • 23.1 g/t gold over 2.0 metres from drillhole PG18-616.

In addition to ongoing exploration at Wedge, the current drilling campaign also includes the initial testing of the Fork EXT target which is located down-plunge of the near-surface Fork deposit and hosts strong alteration, blue-grey quartz veins, and anomalous gold in limited past drill testing. The Fork EXT target is hosted along the upper contact of the Russet Lake Ultramafic unit in an analogous geologic setting to the high grade 8 Zone of the Madsen deposit. The 2019 exploration program will also continue surface work to prepare a further 24 current high priority exploration targets across the Madsen Property for future discovery drilling.

The Company’s 12,000 metre drill program is expected to be completed in December, with additional results released during the course of the activities.

ABOUT MADSEN
The Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine has historical production of 2.6 million ounces of gold and a current indicated resource of 1,744,000 ounces gold at 8.7 g/t gold (in 6.2 million tonnes), an inferred resource of 296,000 ounces gold at 7.9 g/t gold (in 1.2 million tonnes), and benefits from existing infrastructure including a mill and tailings facility, paved highway access, and access to power, water and experienced labour. The recently released feasibility study for the Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine outlines an 800 tonne per day underground mining operation with a 12 year mine life, Probable Mineral Reserves of one million ounces of gold grading 9 g/t in 3.5 million tonnes, and a low initial capital cost of C$95 million (US$71 million), putting the Madsen Red Lake Gold Mine firmly on the path to becoming Canada’s next iconic gold mine.1,2

  1. Inferred mineral resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be considered for estimation of mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the inferred mineral resources will be converted to indicated resources or a mineral reserve.

QA/QC and Core Sampling Protocols
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Minerals in Thunder Bay, Ontario for sample preparation by crushing to 70% less than 2 mm, a rotary split of 1 kg, and pulverization of the split to better than 85% passing 75 microns. Sample pulps are shipped to the ALS assay laboratory in North Vancouver, BC for gold analysis with a 30 g fire assay and AAS finish (code Au-AA23). Samples returning >5 g/t Au are re-assayed with a gravimetric finish (code GRA21). Mineralized zones with visible gold and shoulder samples are also analyzed by a 1 kg screen fire assay with screening to 100 microns. A duplicate 30 g fire assay is conducted on the screen undersize with assaying of the entire oversize fraction (code Au-SCR21). Control samples (certified standards and uncertified blanks), along with field, prep and pulp duplicates, are inserted on a regular basis. Results are assessed for accuracy, precision, and contamination on an ongoing basis.
