[{"type":"text","content":"Delta Confirms Eastward Extension of New Gold Zone with More High-Grade Gold Intercepts at Delta-1, Thunder Bay, OntarioKingston, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 9, 2023) -  Delta Resources Limited (TSXV: DLTA) (OTC Pink: DTARF) (FSE: 6GO1) (\"Delta\" or \"the Company\") is pleased announce final assay results from drill holes D1-22-24 and D1-22-25 at the Delta-1 Gold project located 50 km west of Thunder-Bay, Ontario.Gold mineralization was intersected in both drill holes, therefore extending the Eureka Gold Zone to nearly one kilometre of strike length. The drill holes returned high-grade intercepts of 130.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre, 30.66 g/t Au over 1.0 metre (within a broader interval of 5.32 g/t Au over 8.0 metres) and 16.42 g/t Au over 1.5 metres, alongside or within broader mineralized intervals. Intervals are reported in Table 1 below.Holes D1-22-24 and D1-22-25 were drilled in October 2022 to test the eastern extension of the gold intercept from drill hole D1-22-18 consisting of 14.8 g/t Au over 11.9 metres within a broader zone grading 5.92 g/t Au over 31.0 metres previously reported October 19, 2022. At the time, drill hole D1-22-18 was the easternmost drill hole in the Eureka Gold Zone and suggested a gold enrichment towards the east. Drill holes D1-22-24 and D1-22-25 were collared respectively 50 metres and 100 metres east of drill hole D1-22-18 (see figures 1 and 2).André Tessier, President and CEO commented: \"These new results are extremely exciting for Delta and represent a turning point at the Delta-1 property. The results from drill holes 18, 24 and 25 are showing continuous high-grade gold mineralization over a strike of at least 100 metres in addition to broader gold intercepts. Delta is now drilling the projected eastern extension of this new, never drill tested, high-grade zone with an initial 3,000 metre follow-up program. With its recently signed exclusive exploration agreements, Delta now controls over four kilometres of strike length where the gold zone can be projected, leaving a huge area for expansion.\"TABLE 1: Significant results from drill holes D1-22-18, D1-22-24 and D1-22-25To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8482/154243_deltaimagetable1.jpgDELTA-1 PROPERTY EXPLORATION UPDATEDelta's 2023 winter drill program previ...
