[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nVAL D'OR, QC, July 27 /CNW/ - Drilling to follow-up a deep hole drilled\nin 2007 has provided some encouraging results. Hole U-4317 initially returned\nan intersection of 3.92 gAu/tonne over an estimated true width of 6.6 metres.\nRecent drilling has cut intervals of 4.17 gAu/tonne over an estimated true\nwidth of 11.6 metres in hole U-4566 and 3.41 gAu/tonne over an estimated true\nwidth of 5.2 metres in hole U-4568.\n\n\nThe drilling results come from approximately 300 metres below the mine's\ndeepest level and demonstrate potential exists for a southeast plunging\ncorridor of mineralization with a strikelength of about 200 metres to extend\nto depths of at least 1300 metres. A diamond drill is scheduled to return to\nthis target later in the summer.\n\n\nS-50 Zone Intersections\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n Cut Grade\n Estimated Grade (cut to\nHole From To Core length True (gAu/ 34.28gAu/\nNo. (m) (m) (m) Width (m) tonne) tonne)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nU-4566 400.0 414.7 14.7 11.6 4.17 3.75\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 408.0 414.7 6.7 5.3 6.64 5.71\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4567 350.7 373.0 22.3 17.7 0.82 0.82\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 350.7 362.5 11.8 9.3 1.23 1.23\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4568 440.7 473.3 32.6 24.4 1.68 1.68\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 463.0 470.0 7.0 5.2 3.41 3.41\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4724 426.9 435.0 8.1 5.8 1.58 1.58\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n 456.0 460.55 4.55 3.3 4.64 4.64\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 458.1 459.0 0.9 0.7 22.61 22.61\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nMineralization is typica...
