Kenai Resources Ltd.: Sao Chico-High Grade Gold Zone Confirmed-Now Over 540m Strike Length
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/12/12 -- Kenai Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: KAI) ("Kenai") is pleased to announce that following the completion of a 3,268 meters, 22 hole diamond drilling program it has confirmed a 540 meter strike length high grade gold zone(1) at its Sao Chico project. The Sao Chico project is located in the Tapajos Gold Trend (see Figure 1), a strongly mineralized zone in north central Brazil, south of the regional city of Itaituba. Kenai recently announced the acquisition from Gold Anomaly Ltd of its wholly owned subsidiary Gold Aura do Brasil Mineracao Ltda ("GOAB"), which holds 100% of the Sao Chico gold project mineral rights.
As a result of the completion of the program, drilling has demonstrated
The previously announced exploration target of the between 424,000 and 1,060,000 gold ounces in the Sao Chico area (56 Ha of the whole 1,436 Ha exploration licence) remains. As reported in detail by Kenai on November 29th, 2011, the estimated exploration target potential at Sao Chico, is between 1.1 million and 2.2 million tonnes with a grade potential of between 12 and 15 gram per tonne average. The Sao Chico target potential tonnages and grades on which such estimates of gold ounces are based are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration for a defined mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the delineation of such a mineral resource.
Kenai will now plan the Stage 2 8,000 meter diamond drill program, commence an update of its January 2011 NI 43-101 report and apply for a trial mining permit to mine the underground mineralized material.
Details of the above along with relevant diagrams can be found on Kenai's website .
