Entourage Metals Expands Land Position Between Probe Mines and
IAMGOLD's Deposits, Ridout Deformation Zone, Eastern Ontario
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jan 20, 2014) -
Entourage Metals Ltd. (TSX-VENTURE:EMT) is pleased to report that
the Company has acquired through staking, an additional 13.4 square
kilometers (84 claim units) of land in the Swayze Greenstone Belt,
Ontario. Entourage's 222-square kilometer October Gold Property is
the located between Probe Mine's Borden Gold Property, and
IAMGOLD's Côté Lake and Jerome Deposits (previously Trelawney
Mining). Entourage's extensive claim package is one of the largest
in this emerging area of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
The October Gold Property is located near Benton Township. The
property straddles a portion of the Ridout Deformation Zone,
considered to possibly be the western extension of the
Cadillac-Larder Lake Deformation Zone. The Cadillac 'break' hosts
the Kirkland Lake and Kerr Addison-Chesterville gold deposits with
associated with historic production exceeding 49 million ounces of
gold.
The Ridout Deformation Zone hosts Probe Mine's Borden Gold
Deposit with Indicated Resource of 3.68 million ounces of gold and
Inferred Resources of 625,000 ounces of gold (see Probe Mines Press
Release 01-15-2013) and IAMGOLD's Côté Lake Gold Deposit with
Indicated Resource of 3.56 million ounces of gold; and Inferred
Resource of 4.66 million ounces of gold (see IAMGOLD's Press
Release 04-10-2012). Entourage's claims are centered between the
two recent discoveries; approximately 50 km southeast of the Borden
Gold Deposit and 35 km northwest of the Côté Lake Deposit. Teck
Resources also has active claims located west of Entourage's
October Gold Property.
Previous work by Entourage included Soil Gas Hydrocarbon (SGH)
sampling, reconnaissance level gravity geophysical survey,
lithogeochemistry, and geological mapping. Entourage identified two
strong SGH gold anomalies at the October Gold Property during these
recent surface exploration programs. Of two large anomalies
identified by Entourage, the western anomaly at October Gold has a
footprint of 1.5 km by 3.0 km and the eastern anomaly has a
footprint of 2.0 km by 2.0 km. SGH is an emerging geochemical
exploration technique that has been employed with success in
covered areas of the Canadian Shield. These two SGH anomalies
coincide with a strong gravity breaks, as well as, anomalous gold
grains in till (up to 25 grains).
Entourage collected 251 grab samples in the 2012 program. 10
samples ranging from 40 ppb to 9,230 ppb Au were identified. The
highest grab sample, collected along a sub-parallel structure to
the deformation zone, yielded 9.23 g/t Au was taken from a
highly-altered, quartz-carbonate replacement zone measuring
approximately three meters in width along a yet undetermined strike
length. This historical occurrence was previously known as the
Woman River Prospect.
A property location plan, geological, geochemical and
geophysical maps of the October Gold Property can be viewed at
www.entouragemetals.com.
These coincident results of geochemical and geophysical
anomalies on the Property warrant future geologic and geophysical
work, as well as trenching and diamond drilling.
Entourage's exploration work at October Gold was performed under
the supervision of John C. Florek, P.Geo, Vice-President
Exploration for Entourage Metals and a Qualified Person as defined
by NI 43-101. Rob Mcleod, Chairman of the Board, prepared and
approved the information contained in this release.
