Klondike Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE: KS) (the "Company") is pleased
to announce results from an earlier drill program and reevaluation
of the Corkill-Lawson silver project. The property is located
approximately 15 kilometers southeast of the town of Gowganda,
Ontario. Drill hole HCL0701, which intersected 2,393 g/t Ag, 0.31%
Co, 0.46% Cu and 0.17% Ni over 0.41 meters from 99.97 to 100.38
meters, will be the primary focus of the upcoming program. The
Gowganda area was the second largest silver producer in Ontario
after the Cobalt area, having produced 60,186,782 oz Ag up until
1969.
"We are pleased to announce the Company is moving forward with
the Corkill-Lawson silver project. Recent assessment work completed
on the property clearly highlights its potential," comments Company
President, Richard Hughes. "A review of previous drill data,
including the high grade intercept mentioned, has been completed
andwill guide future exploration efforts".
Original exploration by the Company was conducted to identify
silver-cobalt-nickel veins hosted in and proximal to a Nipissing
diabase dike that strikes north-south through the Corkill and
Lawson townships. Drill targets were defined on the basis of VTEM
airborne geophysical anomalies in conjunction with targeting mature
differentiated diabase similar to the diabase hosted silver
deposits of the Gowganda area.
The Company would also like to announce it underground work in
the Silvana mine, in British Columbia is progressing well. A drift
is currently being put into to what the Company believes is the
western extension of the Main Lode structure, the controlling
structure responsible for the majority of production in the Slocan
silver camp. Underground drilling is also underway at the eastern
end of the Silvana mine.
