[{"type":"text","content":"Minnova Corp. Intersects 44.31 g/t Over 0.8 Meters in Phase 1 PL Deposit Drill ProgramTORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2016 / Minnova Corp. (TSXV: MCI) (OTC Pink: AGRDF) \"Minnova\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to announce positive results from Phase 1 of its 2016 PL Gold Deposit drilling program.\nSignificant intercepts include 44.31 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") (1.42 ounces per ton (\"oz/t\")) gold over a core length of 0.8 meters which was contained in a broader interval grading 17.97 g/t (0.58 oz/t) over a core length of 2.4 meters. This interval from drill hole M-16-2 corresponds to the Lower Mineralised Zone, one of 4 mineralized zones that make up the PL Deposit resource. M-16-2 also intersected both the Sherridon and Upper Zones returning 1.91 g/t (0.06 oz/t) over a core length of 4.4 meters and 6.24 g/t (0.20 oz/t) over a core length of 0.75 meters, respectively. Hole M-16-1 did not return any significant gold values although the targeted Sherridon Zone was intersected at the targeted downhole depth between 526 to 530 meters. Typical Sherridon Zone mineralogy of quartz vein associated with trace to 2% sulphide mineralization consisting of arsenopyrite, pyrite and pyrrhotite were noted in this interval. The core is being re-examined and additional samples with be submitted for fire assay.\nImage: https://www.accesswire.com/uploads/Minnova%206-13%201a.png\n\n Some intervals to be re-assayed\n\nQA/QC\nAll samples were sawn and separated with one half being returned to the core box for reference and the other being bagged in a plastic sample bag which was labeled, tagged, documented and sealed with a zip-tie. Samples were placed in labelled rice sacks and sealed. All samples were recorded and delivered to the Accurassay Laboratories in Thunder Bay Ontario. Receipt of the samples was signed off at the preparation lab. Pulps of each sample were prepared and followed by fire assay and gravimetric analysis, if required. A QA/QC program including the regular insertion by the Company of duplicates, blanks and standards was instituted. Sample lengths varied according to geology and mineralization with quartz veins regularly sampled.\nGorden Glenn, CEO commented, \"Step out drilling from Phase 1 drill program successfully intersected the gold on the targeted mineralized zones down dip of the currently defined resource confirming ...
