[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 14, 2020 /CNW/ - Outcrop Gold Corp. (TSXV: OCG) (OTCPK: MRDD.F) (DE: MRG1) (\"Outcrop\") is pleased to announce assay results from drilling on its 100% owned Santa Ana project in north Tolima, Colombia. Drilling continues at the Megapozo target with 1,783 metres in fourteen core holes drilled to date and a fifteenth hole in progress. Assays are pending on five holes. Highlights Outcrop drills highest grades to date in Santa Ana at 0.95 metres of 69.6 g Au/t and 5,550 g Ag/t and 0.73 metres of 13.4 g Au/t and 1,460 g Ag/t intercepted at Megapozo where drilling continues and mineralization is open in all directions. A second rig has commenced drilling the Roberto Tovar target. This target provides a previously identified high-grade shoot with historic drill results of up to 3.04 metres of 1,763 g eq Ag/t and 5.16 metres of 783 g eq Ag/t. Outcrop will offset and extend this open shoot. Bulk mineralized zones have been identified at Roberto Tovar where three close-spaced, parallel high-angle veins and internal wall rock show composited grades of 18 metres of 450 eq g Ag/t. Megapozo shows multiple phases of mineralization that are comprised of sulfidic breccia and wider altered sheared and altered zones containing veins. These overprinting phases of mineralization provide the bonanza grades seen in drill hole 29, the highest grades drilled to date on Santa Ana. Megapozo contains a low-angle high-grade shoot that is plus 100 metres laterally along strike and plus 320 metres down-dip within the vein. Mineralization is currently open in all directions. The bonanza grades may reflect the proximity of an intersection of the low-angle Paraiso veins with the high-angle Santa Ana veins which would contain crosscutting high-angle and low-angle feeder faults and veins. \"Drilling continues to prove up confidence at Santa Ana,\" commented Outcrop Chief Executive Officer Joseph Hebert. \"We have drilled the best holes yet, while still early in our exploration program. We are excited about the potential as mineralization remains open in all directions.\" The results from Megapozo add to the success from La Ivana and historic drilling in Roberto Tovar. Importantly all three shoots remain open at depth and along strike, and if the three identified shoots can be extended from surface to 400 metres the poten...
