[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nVANCOUVER, April 1 /CNW/ - Gitennes Exploration Inc. (TSX-GIT) is pleased\nto advise that a detailed report on its 100%-owned TotoRoko Property has been\nfiled on SEDAR. The report, title "TECHNICAL REPORT on the TOTOROKO PROJECT,\nDepartment of Arequipa, Perú" was authored by Alvaro Fernandez-Baca, P.Geo.\nand James R. Foster, P.Geo., two experienced geologists in the employ of\nGitennes.\n\n\nIncluded within the report are the results of a multi-element Mobile\nMetal Ion ("MMI") survey completed over the area of the Cantana structure and\nthe "Northern IP Anomaly". In December 2007 Gitennes drilled one core hole on\nthe Cantana structure, aimed to test some high-grade silver and gold results\nobtained from surface rock-chip sampling. The hole encountered a\nwider-than-expected zone of argillic-altered, strongly oxidised breccia that\nbegan at a down-hole depth of 28.50 metres. The main Cantana quartz structure\nwas hit at a depth of 48.55 metres and continued, with varying degrees of\nfracturing and brecciation, down to 99 metres (50.45 metres of core length, or\n35.7 metres true width). This deeper quartz-rich structure is accompanied by\nmoderate sericite alteration and locally heavy pyrite with minor local\nchalcopyrite and other unidentified fine-grained metallic minerals. The\nCantana structure contains evidence of multiple brecciation events evidenced\nby cemented brecciated quartz clasts, such that it must have been the focus of\nseveral hydrothermal pulses or repeated fault movements, or both.\n\n\nDespite the attractive-looking core, the rocks returned low grades with\nthe highest assay results coming from a 1.45-metre sample of vein material,\nwith 0.75 g/t Au and 8.9 g/t Ag. Pyrite and galena occur as minor minerals in\nthis interval. All other samples taken from the vein and from the fault zone\nyielded less than 60 ppb gold and less than 4.9 g/t silver. Copper numbers of\nup to 0.2 % copper are coincident with traces of fine-grained sulphide\nminerals, as is zinc (up to 0.26% Zn) and lead (up to 0.19% Pb).\n\n\nThe Cantana hole did not test the Northern IP anomaly. Due to the poor\ndevelopment of soils in the area, the presence of transported colluvium, and\nthe dry desert-like conditions that characterize the climate for most of the\nyear, MMI was thought to be a more ef...
