VANCOUVER, May 13 /CNW Telbec/ - Endurance Gold Corporation (EDG - TSX.V) will complete a diamond drilling program on the BQ Property, commencing the first week of June. The BQ Property, located 25 kilometres northwest of Smithers, covers a large Eocene aged felsic intrusive, emplaced into a sequence of older epiclastic and volcanoclastic sediments. Along the northern flank of the intrusion, the sediments exhibit intense alteration and host stockwork sulphide mineralization, within which previous drilling by Endurance has returned anomalous gold intercepts to 1.0 gpt across 20.0 metres
This year's program will comprise five to six holes and approximately 650 metres, and test moderate newly generated IP chargeability and resistivity anomalies along the north flank of a large porphyry intrusion. The work will be located between 2.5 and 4 kilometres east of all previous drilling, but along the same prospective trend as defined by both 2007 airborne and ground geophysical surveys. The drilling program is expected to be completed by mid-June, with analytical results available by mid-July. Results will be reported at that time.
