Both prospects were inspected and sampled by GWM geologists during April this year who have concluded that the mineralisation styles in both areas strongly resembles that encountered at the Mineral Jackpot/Bass Mine prospect (\"M3\") 750 metres to the West. \n \nRock chip samples were taken, consisting of rock chip fragments 1-5 kg in weight, hammered from the outcropping veins. These samples were submitted to an accredited assay laboratory in Reno, Nevada, for ICP-ES and fire assay analysis. \nSignificant (>0.1 g/t Au) precious metal mineralisation was encountered in six of the eight samples taken from the Silver bell - Silver Moon area in April, (see Table 1), including 95.6 g/t Au and 773 g/t Ag.\nTable 1 Rock Chip Assay Results from Silver Moon and Silver Bell 2019\n \n\n\n\nX\n\n\nY\n\n\nLocation\n\n\nAu (g/t)\n\n\nAg (g/t)\n\n\n\n\n375354\n\n\n4228413\n\n\nSilver Bell Prospect\n\n\n0.66\n\n\n3\n\n\n\n\n375421\n\n\n4228558\n\n\n15.20\n\n\n97\n\n\n\n\n375801\n\n\n4229072\n\n\nSilver Moon Prospect\n \n\n\n0.0025\n\n\n2\n\n\n\n\n375838\n\n\n4229255\n\n\n95.60\n\n\n773\n\n\n\n\n375849\n\n\n4229250\n\n\n1.33\n\n\n5\n\n\n\n\n375805\n\n\n4229245\n\n\n0.07\n\n\n1\n\n\n\n\n375642\n\n\n4229014\n\n\n1.54\n\n\n33\n\n\n\n\n375599\n\n\n4229034\n\n\n0.27\n\n\n5\n\n\n\n \n \nGreat Western Mining believes that the Silver Moon - Silver Bell - Mineral Jackpot vein occurrences represent a single mineralising event, evidenced by the common granitic host lithology, the precious metal Au-Ag signatures and the vein orientation and styles. The assay grades seen in the recent sampling, coupled with previous rock chip sample data taken from the Mineral Jackpot area in the second half of 2018, (see Table 2), indicate a ...
