[{"type":"text","content":"\nBlue Sky reports major targets adjacent to Marifil's San Roque Au-Ag project, Rio Negro province, Argentina\n\n(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nBlue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: BSK, FRA: MAL, WKN: AOMKXP) (\"Blue Sky\" or the \"Company\") reports two major airborne magnetic anomalies with gold-silver potential adjacent to Marifil Mines Limited (\"Marifil\") San Roque project, under option to NovaGold Resources, Inc. (\"NovaGold\"), in the Rio Negro province, Argentina. Recently Marifil announced results from NovaGold's Phase 1 drill program including an intercept of 120 m at average grade of 1.2 g/t Au and 10 g/t Ag in drill hole MSR-009 as well as significant values for indium, lead and zinc. Marifil stated that they believe that they have discovered a major gold-silver-lead-zinc-indium deposit (July 20, 2011 press release).\n\n\n \nSee map: http://www.blueskyuranium.com/i/pdf/DarmarOCMap.pdf\n\n\n \n\"The identification of two major gold-silver targets in Rio Negro highlights the underexplored nature of the Province. Our Company's focus is clearly on uranium and the Darmar property is a good example of added benefits of what our activities can bring outside our main exploration focus.\" stated Normand Champigny, Blue Sky's President and Chief Operating Officer.\n\n\n \nIn the Rio Negro province a 22,214 line-km airborne radiometric and magnetic survey completed by Blue Sky delineated uranium targets (October 4, 2010 press release) and resulted in the discovery of uranium mineralization on the Ivana property (August 9, 2011 press release). Interpretation of the magnetic data from this survey also identified two major magnetic anomalies on the 100% owned Darmar I and Darmar properties. The area in and around the Darmar properties has had very little modern exploration.\n\n\n \nThe first target is located on the Darmar I property (97.5 km2) located 3.5 km southeast of the San Roque project. It consists of a 1.5 km in diameter magnetic anomaly that may correspond to an intrusive system covered by shallow gravels. An exploration license has been granted and an environmental impact study has been submitted for prospecting. The results of reconnaissance sampling (15 soil samples and 1 grab rock sample) did not reveal significant values. A ground geophysical survey is planned to define drilling targets.\n\n\n \nThe second target is located ...
