Joint venture partners Murgor Resources (MUG-V) and Freewest Resources Canada (FWR-V) continue to cut significant gold at their Windfall property in northwestern Quebec.
The latest drilling is highlighted by hole 48, which cut the F-17 zone and graded 8.84 grams gold over 11 metres from 16 metres down hole. This intercept included a one-metre interval grading 97.8 grams gold per tonne.
Three other holes cut 0.91-3.4 grams gold over widths ranging from 21-45 metres beginning from at least 55 metres down hole. These intercepts contained narrower intervals of higher grade, such as hole 52, which intersected up to 7.24 grams gold over 9 metres at 60 metres down hole.
Three gold zones, namely F-11, F-17 and F-51, were drilled in an attempt to define the resources.
Two holes in zone F-11 each cut three-metre intervals grading 8.18 grams gold and 3.35 grams gold per tonne respectively. Several holes failed to cut significant mineralization. To date, 10 holes have tested this zone, which is underlain by a well-defined 500-metre-long geophysical anomaly.
Three holes drilled in zone F-51 cut two-metre intervals grading 8.61 grams gold, 4.5 grams gold and 2.1 grams gold per tonne, all at depths between 58-63 metres down hole.
F-17 was intersected over a strike length of at least 300 metres. Gold is hosted by sub-horizontal quartz veins associated with a sub-vertical shear, which is locally gold-bearing. In total, 21 holes have tested the zone, over half of which contained significant results (T.N.M. Daily News, Mar.16/05).
F-51 was cut over a strike length of about 100 metres. Gold is hosted by quartz-tourmaline veins within a shear zone. To date 12 holes have tested the zone.
Three reconnaissance holes were drilled on the Golden grid, but failed to hit significant gold.
Further drilling is scheduled to begin in the second week of May.
The 90-sq.-km property is held equally by Murgor and Freewest.
