Golden Dawn Minerals Inc. Drilling Intersected New Mineralization at Lexington, Greenwood

23.02.2022  |  Accesswire
VANCOUVER, Feb. 23, 2022 - Golden Dawn Minerals Inc., (TSXV:GOM) (FRANKFURT:3G8C) (OTC Pink:GDMRD), ("Golden Dawn" or the "Company"), announces that drilling was successful in intersecting mineralization in all holes completed at the Lexington property in the Greenwood Precious Metals project, southeastern BC.

  • 140 meters Mineralized Section
  • 450 meters North of Known Resource

Location of 2021 drill sites 450 meters northwest of Lexington gold-copper deposit.

The new drill holes tested an area approximately 450 meters northwest of the known resource. A total of 612.9 meters were drilled in five holes last fall; geological logging was completed in December, and core sampling was completed in January. Samples were submitted to ALS labs in North Vancouver and assays are pending.

The drilling targeted the same porphyry-serpentinite contact zone that hosts mineralization in the Lexington deposit. All of the holes hit pyrite +/- chalcopyrite mineralization, including long intervals of disseminated and veinlet-hosted mineralization in the overlying Lexington porphyry, and massive sulphide lenses at the base of the porphyry and in the underlying serpentinite. A well-mineralized quartz vein was also intersected in one hole, containing pyrite, chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite.

The Company is very encouraged about the mineralization encountered in the drill holes because it shows there is much more mineralization to evaluate outside of the known Lexington deposit. Sulphide mineralization is present 450 meters from the known deposit and is open along strike to the northwest. The long intervals of veinlet-hosted pyrite-chalcopyrite mineralization that were intersected potential for a large, disseminated-style gold deposit. A new paradigm for exploration of the Lexington property is now apparent; exploration can be focussed on a large-tonnage, low-grade gold deposit.

Hole LEX21-01 intersected veinlet-hosted and disseminated mineralization from 40.29 to 184.02 meters (143.73 m) in the Lexington porphyry unit, then intersected two massive sulphide lenses (0.58 m and 0.85 m core lengths) within the lower serpentinite unit. The porphyry-style mineralization consists of disseminated, fracture- and veinlet-hosted pyrite (2-5%) with local chalcopyrite (up to 2%) in varying abundance over the entire 143.73 meter interval. Massive sulphide lenses were intersected at 184.02-184.60 and 186.75 -187.60 meters and consist of pyrite and 5-10% chalcopyrite.

Hole LEX21-02 also intersected porphyry-style disseminated mineralization from 31.05 to 160.02 meters (128.97 m) in the Lexington porphyry unit, then intersected one massive sulphide (pyrite) lens (0.43 m core length) within the lower serpentinite unit.

Hole LEX21-03 intersected porphyry-style disseminated mineralization from 21.14 to 89.15 meters (68.01 m) in the Lexington porphyry unit, then intersected two massive sulphide lenses (0.30 and 0.47 m core lengths) within the lower serpentinite unit.

Hole LEX21-04 intersected porphyry-style disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization in two intervals (0.3 and 0.73 m core lengths) within the lower serpentinite unit.

Hole LEX21-05 intersected a mineralized quartz vein (1.76 m core length) and then three semi-massive pyrite lenses (1.6, 0.5 and 0.31 m core lengths) within the lower serpentinite unit. The quartz-carbonate vein contains 20% sulphide minerals, including tetrahedrite, pyrite and chalcopyrite.
