Entourage Metals Announces Drilling Results from Black Raven Gold Property

Entourage Metals has announced the assay results for five drill holes concluded at its Black Raven gold property. The drill holes examined the high-grade Super G shear zone and the Tracy Lee gold-in-soil anomaly.

BR12-07 drill hole examined the Tracy Lee Prospect, which lies at the Beggs Lake Stock’s southern boundary of the Black Raven property. This drill hole focused on a soil anomaly grading 0.87 g/t gold combined with a magnetic lineament and an intellectual property geophysical anomaly. This anomaly has an analogous direction to the Super G Vein, which is hosted inside the mafic volcanic rocks. Drill hole BR12-07 encountered 2.0 m averaging 1.39 g/t gold at contact with the Beggs Lake Stock. This zone plunges down from the adjacent surface exposure, which intersected 0.22 g/t gold from a 1 m channel sample.

Drill holes from BR12 to 15 to BR12-18 examined the Super G vein in four holes that are less than 100 m beneath the surface. The vein thickness increases with depth as demonstrated by the BR11-04 intercept. This drilling was performed to find out the down-dip of the main mineralized breccia zone before drilling at depth.

The expansion of gold-bearing veins that are sub-parallel to the main Super G breccia vein indicates potential structures at depth. For instance, drill hole that BR12-16 that intersected 0.65 m averaging 4.62 g/t gold and drill hole BR12-18 that intersected 0.38 m averaging 14.1 g/t gold demonstrate a developing vein similar to the Super G vein.

The company is planning barge and land-based drilling to examine the extent of strike on the Super G vein. Ice-based drilling will not be performed in view of unfavorable weather conditions. The latest discovery validates the possibility of other styles of gold mineralization. From Phase I drill campaign, grade intercept at 2.38 m of 44.57 g/t gold could be the highest grade discovered near the Hemlo Mines.
