Prospect Ridge Resources Corp. Announces High Grade Sampling Results from Dorreen Mine and Exploration At Knauss Creek Property
12.00 g/t Au (W384814), and 11.55 g/t Au (W386163). In addition, surface prospecting and mapping has discovered a number of new veins in outcrops. These veins are interpreted to form part of a larger network of veins covering a larger area than previously interpreted. An outcrop sample collected 50m southwest, at 75m higher elevation from the mine, returned: 7.12 g/t Au (W384720); From two other adits located 100m southwest, at 100m higher elevation from the mine, outcrop samples collected gave: 36.20 g/t Au (W386156), 19.35 g/t Au (W384675). While scouting the area, an outcrop with a quartz vein, containing pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena and sphalerite, was sampled (W384720) and gave 7.12 g/t Au, 108 g/t Ag, 0.53% Cu, 4.74% Pb and 1.45% Zn. A gold equivalent of 11.41 g/t was calculated. This outcrop is located some 50m southwest of the extremity of the mine and at 75m higher elevation. Rock samples were assayed for gold by standard 50 g fire-assaying with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA24) or gravimetric finish (Au-GRA22) or 1000g metallic
screening (Au_SCR24) at ALS Canada in Terrace, British Columbia. The samples were also assayed for 35 metals from an aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish (ME-ICP41). For samples with overlimit results in silver, copper, lead and zinc aqua regia with ICP finish was used (OG46 ore grade). A quality assurance/quality control program has been implemented and consists of inserting standards on a regular basis in the samples stream.
