[{"type":"text","content":"September 27, 2017 / JMN Wire / Decade Resources Ltd (\"Decade\") reports that an exploration program is ongoing on the Red Cliff property located in the \"Golden Triangle\" area of British Columbia. Exploration during the 2017 field season indicates that the Red Cliff property hosts a large mineralized system that has been traced for several kilometres. Exploration to date has consisted of drilling, mapping, sampling and assaying additional core from the 2007-2012 programs. Drilling has been aimed at checking for extensions of the copper rich Red Cliff zone as well as extending the Montrose gold-copper zone. To date 5 holes were completed on the Red Cliff zone and 28 on the Montrose zone, approximately 1.2 km north from the first 5 holes. Highlights include: Indication of multiple gold bearing sections within the Montrose zone. Extension of the Montrose to depth and along strike. Intersection of 19.9 g/t gold over 4.12 m at 311 m depth in DDH-17-M0N-5. Chip sampling of 19.2 g/t gold over 4 m on the Waterpump zone Chip sampling of 390 g/t gold over 5 m on the Lower Montrose zone. During the 2017 program, exploration was aimed at the following: Testing for depth extent of gold mineralization below previous drilling on the Montrose zone. Extending the copper-gold mineralization at the Red Cliff zone. Completing the surface geological mapping. Locating and sampling the Waterpump zone. Locating additional mineralization in the area of drilling. Sampling previous drill holes from 2007-2016 that had weakly mineralized intrusive. The sampling program on the untested drillhole portions in previous drilling from 2007-2016 has resulted in a large volume of samples sent to the lab in addition to samples from the 2017 drilling. Results are now available for 10 holes from the 2017 drilling; 5 on the Red Cliff zone and 5 on the Montrose zone. Drill results are summarized below for the first holes on the Montrose as follows: DDH No.FromToWidthGold g/t DDH-MON-3 227.44 230.49 3.05 1.53 and 231.55 232.26 0.46 1.06 and 248.48 251.83 3.35 9.98 DDH-MON-4 244.97 247.26 2.28 2.61 and 256.25 257.01 0.76 19.5 and 264.33 266.46 2.13 5.0 DDH-MON-5 279.73 285.37 5.74 2.0 and 310.52 311.28 0.74 1.07 and 311.28 315.40 4.12 19.9 DDH-17-MON-1 & 2 contained 1-2 g/t gold over 1-2 m sections.
