[{"type":"text","content":"Gitennes' reconnaissance rock sampling programme at Snowbird High Grade Gold Project focusses next phase of exploration(via TheNewswire)\n\n \n\n\nMain Vein decline accessed - historical sampling of 11.7 g/t gold *\n\n\n\n \n \nVancouver, British Columbia / TheNewswire / September 21, 2017 - Gitennes Exploration Inc. (\"Gitennes\" or the \"Company\") has completed geological mapping and rock sampling on the Snowbird High Grade Gold Project, located in north central BC. The project is accessible year round via paved and dirt roads and sits at a relatively low elevation with moderate relief (not exceeding 190 meters) allowing access to all parts of the property and enabling cost effective diamond drilling programmes at all time of the year. Subsequent to the first phase of exploration, a detailed high- resolution ground magnetometer survey is currently being expanded and a targeted soil geochemistry programme is being carried out over areas where gold-rich veins are projected to outcrop in the North Zone based on historical drilling.\n\n \n \nThe reconnaissance mapping and rock sampling programme was implemented to better define the controls on gold mineralization within the system. Grab sampling was carried out across all rock types in the Main and East Zones with the intent of identifying the host for gold mineralization. The programme was designed not to bias results by attempting to only replicate ultra-high grade gold from specific areas, specifically, the Main Vein or the Pegleg Vein where historically reported diamond drill results include:\n\n \n \n20.02 g/t gold over 2.4 metres, 11.08g/t gold over 3.0 metres and 24.50 g/t gold over 1.0 metre*.\n\n \n \n* Readers are cautioned that a \"qualified person\" (as defined by National Instrument 43-101) has not yet completed sufficient work to be able to verify the historical information, and therefore the information should not be relied upon.\n\n \n \nThe results of the sampling campaign confirmed that gold within the Main Zone is associated with stibnite (Sb2S3). The high gold-stibnite samples were taken from quartz veins in the northwest and central parts of the Main Zone. Five of seven samples running over 1.0 g/t gold had a strong association between gold and antimony. Antimony values within these samples exceeded the upper threshold detection limits at the analytical labor...
