Yorbeau Resources (YRB.A-T) has cut gold targets at depth along the Larder Lake break, a few km south of Rouyn-Noranda.
Two holes have cut significant gold, highlighted by:
- 2.54 grams gold over 10.7 metres at a vertical depth of 171 metres in hole 390; and
- 2.84 grams gold over 4.1 metres at a vertical depth of 250 metres (hole 397).
These holes were both drilled on the same section near the eastern limit of the Cinderella block. The block covers a 1.7-km stretch of the Larder Lake break.
The gold values are confined to a stratigraphic horizon south of the carbonate rocks along the break.
Two holes are planned to test this zone about 60 metres on either side of the section and at about 300-metre depths.
Six other holes were drilled near the western limit of the block, about 1-1.2 km to the west. Significant grades ranging from 0.96-6.03 grams gold per tonne over 1.5-2.3-metre widths were intersected.
In the past the area has seen limited drilling, but the drill holes were relatively shallow and Yorbeau believes there is good potential at depth. The company owns claims straddling 12 km of the Larder Lake break.
