[{"type":"text","content":"\nCONSTANTINE-CARLIN YUKON JV DEFINES 6.5 KM LONG GOLD AND ARSENIC SOIL ANOMALY; ADDITIONAL RECONNAISSANCE GOLD ANOMALIES DISCOVERED\n\n(via Thenewswire.ca)\n\n \nConstantine Metal Resources Ltd. (\"Constantine\") (TSX Venture - CEM) and Carlin Gold Corporation (\"Carlin\") (TSX Venture - CGD) jointly (the \"Companies\") are pleased to report initial results from follow-up work and new gold anomalies from reconnaissance sampling on Yukon gold properties of the Constantine-Carlin 50/50 Joint Venture (the \"JV\"). The JV is exploring for Carlin-type gold deposits in Yukon's Selwyn Basin, and controls 4,967 claims in twelve gold property areas totaling approximately 1,000 square kilometers. Approximately 12,000 soil, silt and rock samples have been collected to date as part of a $1.2 million exploration program.\n\n\n \nTUT Property\n\n\n \nInitial laboratory data at the TUT property has confirmed and expanded a previously announced coincident gold and arsenic soil anomaly (see news release dated August 9, 2011). The anomaly, which spans 6.5 kilometers in length and ranges from 300 to 1200 meters in width, is defined by soils with greater than 100 ppm arsenic and greater than 20 ppb gold (Figure 1). Individual soil samples within this area are as high as 2809 ppb (2.81 grams per tonne gold) and 58652 ppm (5.87 percent) arsenic. On-site XRF analysis of detailed infill grid samples has defined a greater than 1000 ppm arsenic core to the anomaly that is 1.5 kilometers in length and 500 meters in width. Gold assays for over 1600 infill soil grid and rock chip samples are pending. Seven mineralized grab samples from initial prospecting within the 1000 ppm arsenic core anomaly area range from 2.01 grams per tonne gold to greater than 10 grams per tonne gold, with an average grade of 5.21 grams per tonne gold (overlimit assay is pending for sample exceeding upper analytical limit of 10 g/t)*. The core of the soil anomaly correlates with a zone of altered and heavily fractured rhyolite dikes that are commonly associated with quartz-arsenopyrite veining. Dikes within the zone average 35 to 50 meters in width and are located near the outer edge of a contact metamorphic aureole, approximately one kilometer outboard of a Cretaceous-age quartz monzonite stock.\n\n\n \nOther separate areas on the TUT property receiving follow-up evaluation inclu...
