Goldcliff Samples 1,381 g/t Silver at Ainsworth
November 29 2021 - 3:15PM
George Sanders, President of Goldcliff Resource Corporation
(“Goldcliff” or the “Company”) (GCN: TSX.V, GCFFF: OTCBB PINKS)
reports that target generation exploration activity at the
Company’s Ainsworth silver project, located near Kaslo, B.C.,
continues to demonstrate the high- grade nature of this historic
silver district. Airborne geophysics and a combined rock, sediment
and soil sampling program was carried out on the Ainsworth property
in the summer of 2021 to focus on geochemically and geophysically
anomalous areas found in previous years (Goldcliff News Release
dated January 6, 2021). Goldcliff’s recent exploration efforts have
been focused in the southern portion of the claim holdings around
the highest grade historic mine, the No. 1 and other high-grade
prospects nearby, including the Silver Hoard and Dellie. Rock
values as high as 1,381 g/t silver and soil values as high as 218
ppm silver were obtained in samples across old historic trenches
upslope from the No. 1 Mine adit.
Sediment values as high as 77.55 ppm silver, and soil values up
to 165 ppm silver, were obtained from the area between the No.1
mine and the Silver Hoard, all of which is very encouraging for the
prospect of locating additional silver mineralization.
A high resolution combined magnetic, VLF-EM and spectrometer
airborne survey was carried out over southern parts of the property
during the summer of 2021. A preliminary interpretation of the
airborne data has indicated a number of small magnetic highs and
moderate potassium highs located within regions of quiet magnetic
activity and low (quiet) gamma ray total count. The No. 1 Mine as
well as the Silver Hoard/Dellie prospects correspond with small
magnetic and potassium highs within the quiet regions.
Goldcliff’s interpretation suggests that these quiet regions
also contain new geophysical targets situated in areas of limestone
within the mapped Milford Group sediments. The new targets are
associated with structure interpreted from both the magnetic and
spectrometer data.
Examination of the mine dump of the No. 1 Mine yielded a sample
grading 3,553 g/t silver. This is a dump grab sample and is not
indicative of any in-place, out cropping mineralization. The sample
was selected because it was obviously mineralized but the high
analytic result was not expected based on visual examination. Most
mine dumps in the Ainsworth district have been hand scavenged by
prospectors over the last 100 years. It is surprising to find any
highly mineralized material remaining on the dumps. Grades of this
type in an ordinary looking specimen are encouraging to our team
because this tenor of mineralization may have been overlooked by
miners in the early 1900’s.
Goldcliff is the largest claim holder in the Ainsworth camp with
approximately 4,455 hectares. A large portion of the holdings were
acquired by staking and are owned 100%. The balance of the land
position is held under an option to purchase 100 % (see Goldcliff
News Release dated March 1, 2021). Further exploration activity
will be designed around the Direct Shipping exploitation model.
Ainsworth is approximately 120 kilometres from the Teck-Cominco
smelter in Trail, B.C.
Goldcliff is a multi asset exploration and development company
focused on projects where a bootstrap development strategy may be
applicable. Current active projects include the Kettle Valley
gold/silver and Ainsworth silver properties in B.C. and the Nevada
Rand gold/silver and Aurora West gold properties in Nevada.
