Golden Reign Resources Ltd.: Las Conchitas Sampling Program Results
Golden Reign Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Golden Reign")(TSX-V: GRR) is pleased to report additional sampling results from the Las Conchitas area of its flagship San Albino-Murra Gold Property (the “Property”), Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua.
A comprehensive, on-going regional prospecting and sampling program at the Property has identified several new prospects within a 4 square kilometre area of the Southern District, which borders the Company’s newly acquired El Jicaro Concession. A number of old mine dumps and pits, float material and quartz vein structures were sampled (see below for full table of results and map).
The new prospects represent the southwest extension of mineralized structures, comprised of a system of parallel, sheeted quartz veins, first exposed by the Company’s 2011 major trenching program. Golden Reign has already begun a 2012 trenching program to further delineate and test the new targets.
Three parallel, mineralized zones which strike northeast/southwest cover the sampled area: California Vein/Las Dolores Mine area; Los Centeno Mine/Bayacun Mine area; and, Vicente Mine area.
California Vein / Las Dolores Mine area
A 2.0 metre channel sample of a quartz vein returned an average grade of 69.33 g/t gold and 47.8 g/t silver, comprised of 1.0 metre of 137.35 g/t gold and 93.7 g/t silver and 1.0 metre of 1.30 g/t gold and 1.9 g/t silver. This vein appears to be an extension of the California Vein, which is situated 250 metres to the southwest and strikes 60° to the northeast.
The California Vein was partially exploited via small mine pits. The California pit#1, measuring roughly 40 square metres at surface, returned 45.42 g/t gold and 74.0 g/t silver. Float samples of quartz material taken from two other pits, California pit #2 and California pit #3, returned grades ranging from 2.11 to 88.46 g/t gold and 2.4 to 127.5 g/t silver.
In addition, two nearby float samples of quartz material (Godoy #2) returned 13.81 g/t gold and 23.0 g/t silver and 16.33 g/t gold and 11.7 g/t silver, respectively.
Golden Reign is currently attempting to locate the collapsed entrance to the Las Dolores Mine which is reported to be along strike with the California Vein. A number of samples taken in the immediate vicinity from old mine pits returned grades ranging from 1.78 to 43.31 g/t gold and 3.3 to 42.3 g/t silver. Two mine dumps, Las Dolores Dump #1 and Las Dolores Dump #2, returned 16.61 g/t gold and 51.7 g/t silver and 66.40 g/t gold and 84.6 g/t silver, respectively. Both the Las Dolores Mine and California Vein appear to be a continuation of the same high-grade vein system.
Historical documents (1921) on the Las Dolores Mine report an average vein width of 5.5 feet (1.7 metres), strike length of 500 feet (155 metres) and developed depth of 200 feet (62 metres). The two best samples collected and reported in 1921 returned 5.1 feet (1.6 metres) grading 1.5 ounces (47 g/t) of gold and 5.5 feet (1.7 metres) grading 1.14 ounces (35 g/t) gold. Note: The information regarding the Las Dolores Mine is historical in nature and therefore not NI 43-101 compliant. It should not be relied upon.
Los Centeno Mine/ Bayacun Mine area
The Bayacun Mine was partially exploited by the Spanish in the late 1700’s. A mine dump located near the Bayacun Mine adit returned 34.90 g/t gold and 42.4 g/t silver.
The Los Centeno Mine lies roughly 1,000 metres southwest of the Bayacun Mine along a 60° strike. The strike zone encompasses a number of targets. In all, two mine dumps, seven mine pits and nine quartz veins were tested. Selected results are as follows:
-Los Centeno Tunnel #5 mine dump – a float sample of mixed schist and quartz vein material from the mine dump, which measures 15 metres x 6 metres x 10 metres depth, returned 10.09 g/t gold and 3.8 g/t silver
-Los Centeno vein #1 – a 1.5 metre channel sample of a quartz vein, located 50 metres from Los Centeno Tunnel #5, returned 9.59 g/t gold and 5.8 g/t silver
-Roger pit #1 – float sample of quartz material assayed 10.26 g/t gold and 11.6 g/t silver
-Los Centeno pit #3 – a 1.0 metre channel sample of quartz vein material returned 6.30 g/t gold and 5.3 g/t silver
-Tacho pit #1 – a 1.0 metre channel sample of schist material assayed 9.82 g/t gold and 13.8 g/t silver
-Tacho pit #4 – float sample of quartz material from an old mine pit returned 38.87 g/t gold and 9.8 g/t silver
-La Fortuna-Portillo vein – a 1.5 metre channel sample of quartz vein material containing visible gold returned 12.93 g/t gold and 13.2 g/t silver
-Rosibel vein – a 1.5 metre channel sample of a quartz vein which returned 11.54 g/t gold and 38.5 g/t silver
-El Golfo vein #1 – located 130 metres from the collapsed Los Centeno mine entrance a 1.0 metre channel sample of schist material containing quartz veinlets returned 7.49 g/t gold and 5.4 g/t silver; and a 1.0 metre channel sample of a quartz vein returned 5.27 g/t gold and 13.2 g/t silver
-El Golfo vein#2 – a 1.0 metre channel sample of a quartz vein, situated 130 metres from the collapsed Los Centeno mine entrance, returned 5.31 g/t gold and 3.8 g/t silver
-Roger vein #2 – a 1.5 metre channel sample of mixed schist and quartz vein material returned 13.58 g/t gold and <0.1 g/t silver
Vicente Mine / El Limon Mine area
The Vicente Mine area is located in very close proximity to the recently released Las Conchitas drill holes, LC 11-01 through LC 11-05, which returned 3.0 metres of 62.96 g/t gold and 61.7 g/t silver in the best drill intercept (see news release dated February 22, 2012).
Two float samples taken from two separate mine dumps returned 5.06 g/t gold and 17.2 g/t silver and 20.11 g/t gold and 44.1 g/t silver, respectively.
The Vicente Mine area is also situated within 250 metres of the El Limon Mine, where a quartz vein discovered fifteen metres from the mine entrance returned values of 121.0 g/t of gold and 98.2 g/t of silver over a 1.4 metre channel sample (see news release dated February 2, 2010).
The historic San Albino Mine area lies approximately 2.8 kilometres to the north. Three drill rigs are currently completing a definition drill program which will result in the Company’s maiden resource calculation, expected to be completed in the first half of 2012. The recently acquired El Jicaro Concession, which hosts the historic El Golfo Mine, lies immediately to the south. Both the San Albino and the El Golfo mines were developed and partially exploited in the early 1900’s.
