[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clarity Gold Corp. (“Clarity” or the “Company”) (CSE: CLAR, FSE: 27G, OTC: CLGCF) is pleased to provide an update from previously announced site visits to the Empirical, Tyber, and Gretna Green projects. The objective of these initial reconnaissance programs was to review the geology and mineralization, locate and verify historic mineral showings, and plan for further exploration on the recently expanded portions of the Empirical Property and the newly acquired Tyber and Gretna Green Projects. The Programs were successful in locating recently acquired historic workings on the Empirical and Tyber projects with sampling corroborating historic information and mineralization at several of the showings. Descriptions of grab samples and the located showings are summarized below. Additional planning and compilation work is underway. Empirical Project At the Company’s flagship 10,518 ha Empirical Project, 12 km south of Lillooet, BC, a team of three spent three days on site mapping out road access and locating historic mineral showing where previous work identified mineralization. In the eastern extension, the team was successful in locating and confirming mineralization at two of the more extensively worked showings, namely the Rickhill and Mud showings. In the western expansion claims, the FYP showing was located. A total of 10 grab samples were collected from the three showings visited and results are presented in Table 1 below. Historic Work The Rickhill Showing has seen several campaigns of historic work. In 1959, six surface rock samples averaged 0.95% copper over 12.9 meters (Minfile 092INW022). Elevated copper in soil samples indicate that this zone of copper mineralization may be extended up to a total of 30 m (Skerl, 1959). In 1970, 538 soils were collected with copper intensities ranging between 6 ppm to 212 ppm (Assessment report 02530). The Mud showing (Minfile 092INW025) has historic work reported dating back to 1959 where 5 outcrops of copper mineralization are described to occur over a distance of approximately 1.6 km. Historic Work consisted of bull dozer trenching, limited geophysical and geochemical surveys and 355m of percussion drilling. At the FYP showing, where historic samples taken from quartz veins have assayed up to 0.32% molybdenum and 0.35 g/t go...
