Archean Star Resources Inc.: Drill Program Commences at Gnaweeda Gold Project, Western Australia
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/18/13 -- Archean Star Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: ASP) (the "Company" or "Archean") reports that a diamond drill program has commenced at the Far East Gold Prospect on the pronounced SAM ('Sub-Audio Magnetotelluric') conductivity anomaly that is virtually coincident with the N-S trend of gold anomalies at the Gnaweeda Gold Project in the well endowed Murchison Gold Field in Western Australia. The key highlights are:
Multiple gold intersections with multiple meter gold intervals grading up to 7 g/t Au have been identified on the Far East gold prospect from prior RAB drilling, which is now being followed up with a diamond drilling program. The multiple gold intersections broadly correlate with an approximately 1 km long SAM anomaly identified in the recentsurvey (image below or ).
The approximately $300,000 diamond drill program at Gnaweeda is co-funded by the Government of Western Australia Department of Mines and Petroleum ("DMP") under its exploration co-funding program with the granted funding from the DMP set at a maximum $150,000.
The Far East and Bunarra gold prospects are approximately 14 km and 17 km respectively, south of the Turnberry gold prospect that was the subject of the most recent drill program. The more significant gold intersections at Bunarra were 18 meters grading 11.79 g/t Au and 79 meters grading 0.31 g/t Au. These intersections were located in the approximate center between two significant identified SAM anomalies.
