[{"type":"text","content":" BRISBANE, Australia, June 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adyton Resources Corporation (TSX Venture: ADY) (“Adyton”) is pleased to report that multi-element analysis of drill core samples from the diamond drilling program at its 100% owned Gameta Gold Project have confirmed the potential for the Gameta project to contain a significant silver resource / Ag credit. Various historical technical studies have identified the potential for silver to be present within higher grade gold zones on the Fergusson Island deposits. In addition, high silver grades were intersected within some of the higher-grade gold zones reported in diamond drilling carried out in the early 2000’s. To confirm the silver potential of the Gameta project, a complete multi-element analysis of drill core samples (“Multi Element Analysis”) from the current drill program is being undertaken in addition to the lead collection fire assays which are undertaken to analyse the gold content of the drill core samples (“Gold Assays”). The Gold Assays are performed at the Intertek laboratories in Lae in Papua New Guinea, after which the samples are shipped to laboratories in Australia for the multi-element analysis. The reporting of silver assays for a drill hole therefore occurs sometime after gold assays are reported for that drill hole. Multi-element assay results for holes ADD001 to ADD008 have now been returned, with significant silver reported in holes ADD001, 002 and 006. Highlights: Multi-element analysis of drill core samples reported significant silver intersections including: ADD001: 7.2m (26-33.2m) @ 12.5 g/t Ag ADD002: 20.7m (11.9-32.2m) @ 7.5 g/t Ag ADD006: 18.1m (60.7-78.8m) @ 12.6 g/t Ag Incl 2.7m (68.8-71.5m) @ 34.0 g/t Ag Frank Terranova, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Adyton commented “We are committed to obtaining a complete understanding of the Fergusson Island projects and advancing them as quickly as possible. The Pacific Rim of Fire is globally renowned for producing exceptional world class mineral assets that have demonstrated accelerated growth and, in many instances, surpassed the initial geological consensus of what their potential might be.
