VANCOUVER, Feb. 3, 2015 /CNW/ - Doubleview Capital
Corp. (TSX.V, DBV) (the "Company") is pleased to report that
gold-copper mineralization in Sheslay Red Stock continues to
increase at depth in drill hole H-23 with just received assay
results returning the strongest gold-copper values encountered at
the Hat Project since first-ever drilling commenced in 2013.
Highlights are as follows:
- A second and wider pyrite-rich zone in H-23 returned 0.73%
CuEq* (0.36 g/t Au and 0.47% Cu) in a 110.9-meter section beginning
at a depth of 270.6 meters, including 74.2 meters grading 0.96%
CuEq (0.45 g/t Au and 0.61% Cu);
- Assays are pending for a third, wider chalcopyrite-pyrite zone
that was visually observed to extend for at least 120 meters
beginning at a depth of 402 meters, the current end of
sampling;
- H-23, with the best gold grades of any hole drilled so far at
the Hat Project, confirms the presence of a very large and robust
porphyry system with growing potential for discovery of a
high-grade gold-copper core.
Drill Hole H-23 to 400 Meters
Gold and copper mineralization in H-23 started at a depth of
less than 60 meters, and the hole through 400 meters also features
sections with elevated values of molybdenum, zinc and cobalt
substantially higher compared to earlier holes. The potential
significance of this is being reviewed by Doubleview's technical
team.
A 278.2 meter interval from 67.9 to 346.2 meters returned 0.28
g/t Au, 0.65 g/t Ag and 0.32% Cu (0.53% CuEq).
Farshad Shirvani, Doubleview
President and CEO, commented: "Drill Hole H-23 elevates the Hat
Project to a new level. We're eagerly anticipating assay results
from the last 250-meter section that was completed just prior to
the December break. Those results may necessitate extending the
hole beyond its present depth of 650 meters.
"In just 23 holes, we've taken the Hat from a grassroots stage
to the point where it is now showing significant potential as an
important new porphyry discovery in the underexplored and prolific
Sheslay district just over 100 km northwest of the Red Chris
mine. New infrastructure has added to the already huge
opportunities for additional major discoveries and mining
development in this part of the province."
Drill hole H-23, drilled from the north toward the south,
extended the northern boundary of the Lisle Zone mineralization by
approximately 110 meters (the Lisle Zone of the Hat system is now
half a kilometer wide and 1 kilometer long) and also confirmed that
strong mineralization is present about 220 meters below the zone
encountered in drill hole H-22, the nearest drill hole.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
Drill hole H-23 samples were prepared and analyzed following
industry-standard QA/QC protocols. 15 samples with gold, silver and
copper values that varied in the range of 0.006 to 2.903 ppm for
gold, 0.005 to 70 ppm for silver and 0.0162 to 1.55 % for copper
were submitted to a second independent fully accredited laboratory.
The Company is satisfied that the comparisons are within acceptable
limits for a porphyry deposit but will continue monitoring the
reliability of all analytical results.
Doubleview observes industry-standard quality assurance and
quality control protocols. All drill cores are sampled on site by
sawing the core length-wise and placing one half securely in a bag
for transfer to the prep lab; one half is retained on site for
future reference. All core samples are submitted to an independent
fully accredited ISO 9001:2008 certified analytical laboratory
where gold is determined by fire assay and atomic absorption (AA)
methods, and for 45 other elements by four acid digestion followed
by induced coupled plasma/emission spectrometry (ICP-ES)
determination. Samples with copper content greater than the ICP
upper detection limit (>10,000 ppm) are analysed by atomic
absorption.
QA/QC protocols are observed at all stages of core processing,
including security in transit of samples with "chain of custody"
documentation, preparation of duplicate samples from pulps,
insertion of standard samples into the sample stream, replicate
analyses of samples, and performance of check assaying by a second
independent laboratory. In the recent past data were reviewed by an
independent consultant who found all analytical data to be
acceptable in terms of reproducibility.
