Golden Dory/540 Capital Acquires Land Position in Buchans-Roberts Arm Belt, Newfoundland; Completes Deep-Penetrating Airborne EM
03 Novembre 2008 - 6:00PM
Marketwired
Golden Dory Resources (a 100% owned subsidiary of 540 Capital Corp
(TSX-V: FA)) is pleased to announce that it has acquired, through a
combination of staking and property acquisition, 39 claims (975 ha)
covering highly prospective volcanic rocks of the Robert's Arm
Group located on Pilley's Island, northeastern Newfoundland,
approximately 20 kilometers east of the company's 100% owned
Sterling copper/cobalt Property. The newly acquired claims include
15 staked claims as well as 24 claims optioned from local
prospectors for a one-time cash payment of $6,440.00 and 10,000
shares and a 2% NSR with a 1% buyback by Golden Dory for $1 million
(subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval).
Golden Dory is also pleased to announce that a deep penetrating
airborne EM and magnetic survey has recently been completed on the
Pilley's Island and Sterling properties. The contract was awarded
to Aeroquest Incorporated of Mississauga, Ontario and consisted of
a helicopter borne Aerotem IV system with a depth penetration
capability of 400 meters. Final processed maps are expected in 6 to
8 weeks.
Pilley's Island has a long history of mining and mineral
exploration beginning in 1891 with the opening of the Pilley's
Island pyrite mine in 1891. Several large pyritic massive sulphide
deposits including the Old Mines, Jane's Cove, Rowsell's Cove, and
Spencer's Dock deposits have been discovered over the past 50 years
as well as the base metal rich 3B, Fragmental, and Bull Road zones,
which lie entirely on or immediately adjacent to the Pilley's
Island property. The geology and mineral deposits of the area are
typical of the felsic-dominated, bimodal class of volcanogenic
massive sulphide deposits.
The Bull Road showing was discovered by Brinex in 1967 and is
reported to host 200,000 tons of copper, lead and zinc
mineralization from which channel sample assays have returned up to
3.87% copper, 12.42% zinc, 0.95% lead and 0.71 ounces per ton
silver over 4.6 meters. The Fragmental Zone lies about 200 meters
northwest of the Bull Road zone and from which Brinex reported
drill intercepts of 7.32% zinc, 1.4% copper, 0.76% lead and 0.66
ounces per ton silver over 5.49 meters. (Bull Road and Fragmental
Zone results are historical data obtained from the Geological
Survey of Newfoundland and are non NI 43-101 compliant). The 3-B
Zone, which lies at and immediately adjacent to the property
boundary with Altius Minerals Corporation, is host to approximately
250,000 tons grading 3.5% copper, 1% zinc and 25 grams per ton
silver (data obtained from the Geological Survey of Newfoundland
and are non NI 43-101 compliant). All mineralized zones are
believed significant as they suggest potential for a high grade
source on Golden Dory's claims similar to the ores mined at the
world class Buchans mining camp which produced 16.2 million tonnes
at an average grade of 14.5% zinc, 7.56% lead, 1.33% copper, 1.37
grams per tonne gold and 126.0 grams per tonne silver from 1928 to
1984.
