Trivello Energy Corp. (TSX VENTURE: TRV) (the "Company") is pleased
to announce that it has acquired the Sickle Property, located
approximately 13 km northeast of Yellowknife, Northwest
Territories. The property consists of five claims totaling 1,611.5
acres (652.2 hectares), acquired via ground staking, and is
situated approximately 4 km northwest of Trivello's recent Tom Gold
Mine Property acquisition. This increases Trivello's mineral claim
package to 2,261.7 acres (915.3 hectares) - see news release dated
February 2, 2010.
Within the Yellowknife area, historic gold production from the
Con and Giant mines totaled more than 13 million ounces of gold,
largely from shear zones within volcanic rocks.
The Sickle Property is situated along the eastern margins of the
Yellowknife Greenstone Belt and is underlain by low grade
argillites and turbidites of the Walsh and Burwash Formations, and
felsic volcanics of the Prosperous Formation. All units are
Archean, near vertical, and become younger moving east. Historic
gold exploration has been focused on a calcareous black argillite
unit, near the contact of the Prosperous and Burwash
formations.
The Sickle claims encompass three main historic gold showings
termed the 'Drag Lake', 'Anne' and 'Arseno'. The Drag Lake Showing
has received the most attention with drilling occurring in 1988 and
1990. Historic results include:
- Drillhole 88-1: 0.6 g/t Au across 13.6 metres (true thickness
unknown); and,
- Drillhole 88-11: 3.88 g/t Au across 14.1 metres (true
thickness unknown).
Drill collars directly adjacent to the property, at the Drag
Lake Showing, include:
- Drillhole 88-3: 0.4 g/t Au across 9.9 metres (true thickness
unknown); and,
- Drillhole 88-4: 5.0 g/t Au across 2.4 metres (true thickness
unknown).
Surface results include chip samples of 3.43 g/t Au across 6.71
m, within sheared and silicified andesites from the Anne trenches,
located directly adjacent to the property. A grab sample on the
property from the nearby Len Trench returned 7.23 g/t Au. In
addition, pit samples from the Arseno Showing, approximately 2 km
to the south, returned 5.6 g/t Au over 5 m. Drillhole 90-7 targeted
this showing and returned 5.9 g/t Au over 0.8 m. The Anne Showing
has not been drill tested although it was recommended.
The technical information provided above for the Sickle Property
was prepared by Darren L. Smith, M.Sc., P.Geol, a qualified person
as defined by NI 43-101.
