(TSX-V: RDU) is\n pleased to announce that recent work on its 100%-owned Scarlet East\n claim block in the Yukon has returned highly encouraging first-pass\n results with the discovery of anomalous Au-As-Hg-Sb-Thallium soil\n geochemistry in an area of orange-weathering, gossanous looking\n limestone\n\n\nThe Scarlet East property covers what is believed to be the eastern\n extension of the belt of rocks that host ATAC Resources' Osiris and\n Conrad discoveries northeast of Keno City in the Yukon Territory. The\n Rackla Belt is a potentially major belt of Carlin-type gold\n mineralization. Radius staked 320 claims covering the prospective\n stratigraphy along the southeast edge of ATAC's claim block,\n approximately 10-30km southeast of the Osiris target.\n\n\nPartial results for the first pass reconnaissance geological mapping and\n geochemical sampling program from the Scarlet project have been\n received for 382 soil, 61 stream sediment and 21 rock samples. Ridge\n and spur soil sampling on the eastern end of Radius' Scarlet East claim\n block has identified a gold-arsenic-antimony-mercury-thallium anomaly\n coincident with a significant orange colour anomaly along a ridge,\n which coincides with the possible strike extension of the Nadaleen\n trend that bounds the Osiris and Conrad occurrences approximately 15km\n to the west-northwest. The anomalous samples are...
