Marketwired Canada
Everton Resources Inc. ("Everton" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:EVR)(FRANKFURT:ERV)(OTCQX:EVRRF) is pleased to announce the discovery of
a new mineralized zone on the Ponton property. Surface reconnaissance conducted
as part of a follow up of a stream sediments survey, has uncovered
mineralization as outcrop and float in two drainages situated in the
south-central sector of Ponton. Everton currently owns a 50% interest in Ponton
and will own a 100% interest upon the closing of its acquisition agreement with
Brigus Gold Corp. (see news release dated October 24, 2012).
The mineralization is found as a train of mineralized and hydrothermally altered
float and outcrops including fresh sulfides (pyrite - chalcopyrite - galena),
copper oxide (malachite), strong silicification, quartz veining,
sulfides-cemented hydrothermal breccia and bedded jasperoid.
Assays of 11 grab rock samples collected include values of 1.7 g/t gold, 5.1 g/t
silver, 0.17% copper, 1.42% zinc, and 0.16% lead and six other samples assay
over 0.1 g/t gold. These samples were collected in a drainage where previous
rock samples assayed over 0.5 g/t gold.
Subsequent sampling has yielded additional mineralization over a distance of 2.5
kilometres, and 63 samples collected are currently in the laboratory for
assaying. These locations are 5 kilometres South of the sector Loma Majagual
where Everton has conducted extensive surface sampling and trenching resulting
in values of 0.6% copper and 1.15 g/t gold, and 3 kilometres South-East of the
sector Loma Copey where a gold assay of 4 g/t in a rock grab sample was
obtained.
Further mapping and sampling is currently underway to better define the
extension and structural control of the mineralization and to orient a
systematic soil sampling and trenching program.
Andre Audet, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Everton said, "Based on
these new discoveries, the Company plans to fast track exploration in
preparation for an Induced Polarization ("IP") survey, followed by a drill
program."
