Calvista Gold Corporation (TSX: CVZ)(OTCQX: CAGOF) ("Calvista" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that recent drilling at its Callejon Blanco prospect, along strike from the La Mascota and La Bodega mineralized zones, has returned high grade gold intersections.
Highlights from the recent Phase II drilling program at the Callejon Blanco prospect, include:
The Company's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mark Haywood, stated that "the high grade gold results from the 2,500 metre drilling progam at the Callejon Blanco prospect are very encouraging. The Company will commence updating our recently announced NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource once all assays have been returned from the Phase II drilling program."
The 5,000 metre Phase II drilling program began on the 20th of March 2012, consisting of 2,500 metres allocated to each of the Callejon Blanco and Buenavista prospects. The program is expected to be completed next week with results processed during July 2012 in expectation of a resource estimation update in the third quarter of 2012. The Phase II program at Callejon Blanco prospect has targeted mineralized zones identified in our Phase I drilling program, plus along strike extensions from the San Celestino, La Mascota & La Bodega mineralized zones being developed by Galway Resources and AUX Canada Acquisition Inc., respectively.
Selected drill hole results, using a cut-off grade of 1.0 g/t of gold, from four Phase II drill holes from our Callejon Blanco prospect are provided in Figure 1 and in the Appendix.
A phase III drilling program is also being prepared, which is planned to include 10,000 metres of diamond core drilling, and expected to commence during the last quarter of this year.
