Northern Gold Intersects 38.35 g/t Au Over 8.0 m at Garrcon Deposit
October 10 2013 - 7:35AM
Marketwired Canada
NORTHERN GOLD MINING INC. (TSX VENTURE:NGM) ("Northern Gold" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce results from 21 diamond drill holes from its surface
diamond drilling program on the Garrcon Deposit of the Golden Bear Project, 100
km east of Timmins, Ontario. The 21 drill holes totaled 9,484 metres.
Drill assay highlights for the drill holes include:
-- 4.79 g/t Au over 10.0m (181.0 to 191.0m) GAR-12-207
-- 38.35 g/t Au over 8.0m (287.0 to 295.0m) GAR-12-213
-- 4.79 g/t Au over 7.0m (293.0 to 300.0m) GAR-12-237
-- 7.90 g/t Au over 5.0m (572.0 to 577.0m) GAR-12-261
Martin Shefsky, President and CEO of Northern Gold, comments: "These results
represent the balance of the drilling program at Garrcon. Mineralized intercepts
from infill drilling in the upper portions of the main Garrcon deposit confirm
previous drilling and should increase resource confidence. New higher grade
mineralized intercepts below the existing resource show potential for resource
expansion."
Garrcon Shaft Zone
Drill holes GAR-12-206, 207, 213, 246, 251, 252, 254 were vertical and angled
infill drill holes in the central portion of the Garrcon Shaft Zone. The
vertical holes targeted deeper mineralization below the proposed pit floor to
investigate down dip potential as seen in holes GAR-12-204, 205 (press released
May 9, 2012 and January 31, 2013, respectively). Grades in the upper portions of
these holes largely agreed with previous drilling and will increase resource
confidence; several higher grade intercepts intersected below the proposed pit
floor show potential for deeper mineralized zones. The intersection of bonanza
type grades in hole GAR-12-213 exhibits one of the richer portions within the
deposit.
Garrcon North Zone/Green Zone
Drill holes GAR-11-172, GAR-12-226-228, 237, 250, 253, 270 were drilled to
target mineralization around the periphery of the Garrcon deposit in the North
Zone and/or Green zone horizons. Numerous narrower zones of mineralization were
intersected.
Garrcon East
Drill holes GAR-12-261, 266-268 were angled drill holes designed to test the
strike extension of shaft zone type mineralization along the footwall of the
Destor-Porcupine fault. Each of the holes intersected deep gold mineralization
in metasediment near the contact. This is largely viewed as the down plunge
extension of the Garrcon shaft zone and has extended the total strike length to
1,600 metres.
Drill holes GAR-12-242X and 229 tested shallow mineralization along the Garrcon
north contact but intersected only anomalous values.
