[{"type":"text","content":"Aurvista Gold Plans Significant Exploration Program at Douay\n The Main Gold Target Is the Largely Untested Northwestern Section of the Porphyry Zone; the Southern Portion of Which Contains Lower Grade Mineral Resources Estimates* Of 55.1 Million Tonnes at 1 G/T (At A 0.5 G/T Cut-Off) In the Inferred Category\n Overall Potential of the Northwestern Section of the Porphyry Is Significant, Additional Drilling Could Potentially Add To the Current Mineral Resource Estimates*\n Priority Targeting Program Planned With Airborne Geophysical Survey, Core Re-Logging and Eventual Drilling\n\nMONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / June 14, 2016 / Aurvista Gold Corporation (TSXV: AVA) (OTC: ARVSF) (FSE: AV2) (\"Aurvista\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that following the closing of a C$1.1 million financing (refer to the Company news releases dated May 3 and May 30, 2016), the Company plans a two-staged exploration program on the Douay Gold Project (the \"Project\") for the period June to September 2016 with the prime objective of determining the best of the 25 defined targets (as outlined in the Company news releases dated December 17, 2014, and April 8, 2015) with a view of significantly increasing the current Mineral Resource estimates*.\nThe first stage work will complete the Priority Targeting Program in two areas where management is confident additional gold mineralization will be uncovered. The areas include the:\n(1) 10 km by 3 km wide (at its longest and widest points) SE-tilted parallelogram-shaped Douay-Style Mineralization (\"DSM\") containing all the known gold zones (\"Douay West\", \"10\", \"20\", \"531\", \"Central\", \"Main\", \"NW\", \"Porphyry\" and the \"South Porphyry\") and current Mineral Resource estimates*; and the\n(2) 6 km by 1 km wide cluster of EM INPUT(TM) anomalies or conductors running along the southeast boundary of the DSM that have affinities to Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide or VMS mineralization associated with gold. \nThe second stage will consist of a 4,000 meters of drilling to delineate additional gold and/or copper-gold mineralization on the best targets.\nPriority Targeting Program\nNow with funding in place, the Company intends on completing the Priority Targeting Program. This will involve:\n\n \n Completing an airborne geophysical Magnetic, Electromagnetic and Radiometric survey of the central po...
