Goldcliff Sampling Continues to Yield Strong Gold-Silver Grades at Kettle Valley Gold Project
January 05 2022 - 3:15PM
George Sanders, President of Goldcliff Resource Corporation
(“Goldcliff” or the “Company”) (GCN: TSX.V, GCFFF: OTCBB PINKS) is
pleased to announce new results from the third exploration phase at
the Company’s Kettle Valley Gold (KVG) project located near Rock
Creek, B.C. This project represents a newly recognized epithermal
gold-silver (Au, Ag) occurrence in an area where there is no record
or evidence of previous mineral exploration.
The encouraging results of the July sampling program (News
Release dated November 16, 2021) led to a mid-October program
consisting of expanded, detailed soil and rock geochemical
sampling. In all, the 2021 exploration programs resulted in the
collection of 126 rock, 53 trench, 446 soil and 32 stream sediment
samples.
The most recent program yielded additional strong Au-Ag grades
in rock and significant soil Au-Ag anomalies. Highlighting these
results is bedrock sample KV21-35 that assayed 2.62 g/t Au and 181
g/t Ag collected slightly upslope from float sample DS21-20R (1.79
g/t Au and 93 g/t Ag reported in Goldcliff News Release dated
November 16, 2021). Many of the better grade rock samples occur in
strongly brecciated, silicified rhyolitic volcanics and granitic
rocks all heavily quartz veined and carbonate altered.
The 2021 soil sampling surveys proved to be very successful
resulting in delineation of sizeable Au-Ag geochemical anomalies
extending nearly one kilometre north-south and up to 250 metres
wide. Gold and silver-in-soil values range up to 738 ppb Au and
19.3 ppm Ag. Several soil anomalies as well as mineralized rocks
show a close spatial relationship to several northwest and
northeast trending faults. Faulting likely formed the brecciated
rocks and served as conduits for precious metal mineralizing
fluids. Coincident low levels of pathfinder elements such as
arsenic and mercury and base metals (copper, molybdenum, manganese,
lead and zinc) are also present in this epithermal system.
The KVG project has in one field season emerged as a robust,
large epithermal system. This along with excellent all weather road
access, low elevation and favourable climate will allow the Company
to conduct a maiden drilling program in early 2022. Goldcliff holds
an option to purchase a 100% interest in the property by paying
$450,000 over five years ($70,000 paid to date), subject to a 2.5%
Net Smelter Return royalty.
