[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\nVAL D'OR, QC, May 27 /CNW/ - Recent drilling has demonstrated strong\ngrades over mineable widths with good continuity in the Schist Zone at\nWesdome's 100% owned Kiena mine complex.\n\n\nResults of this drilling have prompted management to immediately develop\nthe zone to provide a high grade sweetener to blend with lower grade material\nin the current mining sequence.\n\n\nThe Schist Zone is E-W striking, vertically dipping and is situated 30\nmetres north of the VC Zone. Mineralization consists of coarse grained free\ngold in quartz stockwork veining. The quartz veining is in a strongly\nalbitized basalt or diorite within a strongly sheared komatiite or\ntalc-carbonate schist. The zone displays good continuity from level 50 to\nlevel 59 (90 metres) with strikelengths of about 50 metres.\n\n\nAs seen in the following table and accompanying longitudinal section,\nthis area has some spectacular, high grade intersections and demonstrates\nexcellent continuity.\n\n\nTable 1 - Schist 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-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4609 59.50 64.70 5.20 3.5 3.73 3.73\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 62.20 64.70 2.50 1.7 6.00 6.00\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4610 59.20 63.90 4.70 3.2 7.13 7.13\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 60.70 63.90 3.20 2.2 9.81 9.81\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4611 45.00 48.50 3.50 3.2 16.13 9.86\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 47.50 48.50 1.00 0.9 56.24 34.28\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4612 37.00 43.60 6.60 3.2 11.60 11.60\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4613 15.30 18.80 3.50 3.2 5.59 5.59\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nincludes 16.80 17.80 1.00 0.9 18.89 18.89\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------\nU-4614 34.10 40.40 6.30 3.2...
