The crosscut adit is continuing south through the Cloutier zone and has proceeded a total length of 740 ft from the portal on Skyline Explorations’ 100%-owned Reg claim group in the Iskut River area of northwestern B.C.
The crosscut adit, which is heading toward the 16 zone, intersected the Cloutier main mineral lens 550 ft from the portal. This main lens was drifted west 130 ft along hangingwall quartz veining, massive pyrite and chalcopyrite.
The east drift was driven 90 ft in similar massive vein mineralization. The width of the Cloutier main lens averages about 15 ft over this developed 210-ft length.
The company says assays from the exposed mineralization in the east drift averaged 3.23% copper, 0.855 oz silver per ton and 0.151 oz gold across 8.5 ft.
The west drift, the company says, shows an increase in gold from the crosscut to the west end. Visible gold was exposed in the mineralization at the end of the west drift.
The crosscut has crossed through the Cloutier footwall mineralization from about 90 ft to 140 ft south of the Cloutier main lens. Mineralization along this footwall zone includes a number of lenses which have assayed up to 1.74 oz gold per ton and 5.075 oz gold (uncut) over 4 ft.
