[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\nKELOWNA, BC, Nov. 8, 2013 /CNW/ - Cantex Mine Development Corp. (CD : TSXV) (\"Cantex\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report the\n geochem results for 143 soil-talus samples that were recently collected\n on lines parallel to the original sample line of highly anomalous\n gold-arsenic-antimony.  These anomalous results from the Company's\n North Rackla claim block were reported in the news release dated\n October 3, 2013. Analyses have now been received which confirm the\n validity of the original highly anomalous gold-arsenic-antimony results\n have also been received.\n\n\nEach of the 143 composite soil-talus samples was collected along the\n parallel lines in the same manner as the original composite samples -\n each sample comprising five sites each about five meters apart which in\n total weigh approximately 1.5 kg.  However, due to the onset of winter,\n these samples were collected from frozen ground that was covered in\n about 30 cm of snow. It is important to note that samples along the\n original highly anomalous line were collected in the summer time with\n no snow cover. With these types of samples, it is important to find\n sites that contain abundant talus-fines. While such sites are common, \n in winter conditions the sites were not easily located.  Therefore, the\n infill samples tend to contain abundant amounts of ice, organics and\n alpine glacial clay, instead of the desired talus-fines, which\n diminishes the quality of the sample.\n\n\nAs a consequence, only 14 of 143 samples collected under the snow cover,\n were weakly to strongly anomalous in gold +/- arsenic +/- antimony. \n One of these 14 samples returned the highest gold result of the 5,123\n soil-talus results received from the North Rackla project to date.  In\n fact, this composite result (also highly anomalous in arsenic and\n antimony) is 4.5 times more anomalous in gold than the next highest\n composite soil-talus gold result.\n\n\nThe Company awaits the results of an additional 6,900 composite\n soil-talus samples from the North Rackla claim group and another 6,763\n soil-talus samples from the Mt. Good claim group that are still in the\n process of being prepared and analyzed. These results will be reported\n when received.\n\n\nIt is the Company's intention to resample the infill lines from which\n 143 ...
