[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 8, 2017) - Sanatana Resources Inc. (\"Sanatana\" or the \"Company\") (TSX VENTURE:STA) is pleased to announce both an initial 1,500 metre drill program to commence mid-September on the Jackfish property and an update on recent exploration activities. Exploration Update: The outcrop stripping and channel sampling geochemical survey has verified significant gold occurrences at the North Zone and Rudy#7 showing so far: North Zone: Sample VR12108B 0.51 g/t Au Sample VR12135B 16.2 g/t Au Sample VR12136B 1.43 g/t Au Sample VR12151B 0.87 g/t Au Sample VR12153B 0.65 g/t Au Sample VR12173B 0.64 g/t Au Sample VR12174B 0.57 g/t Au Sample VR12176B 0.87 g/t Au Sample VR12177B 1.37 g/t Au Rudy #7: Sample VR12337B 3.38 g/t Au Sample VR12345B 12.2 g/t Au Sample VR12349B 0.70 g/t Au Sample VR12351B 6.22 g/t Au Sample VR12352B 10.9 g/t Au The channel samples were cut directly from the exposed bedrock surface at intervals of 1m in a continuous pattern traversing the trends of quartz veining present within the outcrop. All the samples were submitted to Actlabs, Thunder Bay Ontario for Fire Assay analysis for gold. The North zone was previously stripped over a roughly rectangular area 12m wide and 24m long oriented north-south. From a total of 75 channel samples, seven samples across the North Zone (see map) main mineralized quartz vein returned significant levels of gold including an interval of 2m @ 8.82 g/t Au and others around it of 1m @ 0.51 g/t Au to the west and 3m @ 0.55g/t Au, 3m @ 0.55g/t Au and 2m @ 1.12g/t Au to the east, separated by a 3m to 4m spacing along the vein. The Rudy #7 showing was previously identified as a minor gold result hosted in iron formation that has now been exposed by the newly completed outcrop stripping as a ferruginous gold bearing quartz vein. Three sets of channel samples cut across the quartz vein separated 2m to 3m apart along the vein returned assay results of 1m @ 3.38 g/t Au and 1m @ 12.2g/t Au in the northern part and a best result of 2m @ 8.56g/t Au from four samples out of a total of 18 samples.
