Vancouver - Newcore Gold Ltd. ('Newcore' or the 'Company') (TSX-V: NCAU, OTCQX: NCAUF) is pleased to announce additional drill results from the 66,000 metre drill program underway at the Company's 100% owned Enchi Gold Project in Ghana.
Drilling at the Boin Gold Deposit ('Boin') at Enchi has intersected the highest-grade interval to date of 95.16 grams per tonne gold ('g/t Au') over 2.0 metres ('m') from 109 m in RC hole KBRC250. Drilling also continues to encounter wide zones of mineralization, with results intersecting 1.28 g/t Au over 74.0 m from 121 m in diamond hole KBDD064.
Highlights from Drilling at Boin
Highest-grade interval to date intersected at the Enchi Gold Project, encountered on the northern portion of the Boin Gold Deposit.
RC hole KBRC250 intersected 95.16 g/t Au over 2.0 m from 109 m to 111 m (true width unknown), and a second structure with 13.22 g/t Au over 1.0 m from 120 m to 121 m (sulphide zone).
Drilling on the central portion at Boin has extended the drill tested mineralization down dip, encountering wide zones of higher-grade gold mineralization.
Diamond hole KBDD064 intersected a wide zone of gold mineralization of 1.28 g/t Au over 74.0 m from 121 m to 195 m (sulphide zone), including a series of higher-grade structures including: 2.65 g/t Au over 6.4 m from 122 m to 128.4 m; 9.93 g/t Au over 1.4 m from 136.0 m to 137.4 m; 2.24 g/t Au over 6.1 m from 149.3 m to 155.4 m; 4.04 g/t Au over 6.4 m from 170.6 m to 177.0 m and 2.41 g/t Au over 4.0 m from 189.0 m to 193.0 m.
Luke Alexander, President and CEO of Newcore stated, 'The ongoing 66,000 metre drill program continues to deliver strong results, with this set of results encountering the highest-grade gold intercept to date at Enchi with 95.16 g/t Au over 2.0 m from 109 m in shallow sulphide mineralization. These results complement other higher-grade gold mineralization discovered on the Project, with wide zones of gold mineralization encountered that also include a series of higher-grade gold structures. Drilling at Boin continues to highlight the open-ended nature of the deposit, as well as the potential for higher grade sulphide mineralization at depth, which is consistent with our geological model. 90% of the holes drilled to date as part of the current drill program have encountered gold mineralization, with approximately 46,000 metres of the drill program yet to be incorporated into the current 1.41 million ounce Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate, underscoring the resource growth potential across the district scale property.'
Greg Smith, Vice President of Exploration of Newcore stated, 'These results from drilling at Boin highlight the potential for continued resource expansion. The deposit is open along strike with the southern results confirming that strong gold mineralization exists for more than one kilometre south of the currently defined Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate. The high-grade gold intervals intersected include zones interpreted to be related to the intersection of structures and additionally define a series of sub-parallel structures that include wide mineralized zones with higher-grade core structures.'
About Newcore Gold Ltd.
Newcore Gold is advancing its Enchi Gold project located in Ghana, Africa's largest gold producer (1). The Project currently hosts an Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.41 million ounces of gold at 0.62 g/t (2). Newcore Gold offers investors a unique combination of top-tier leadership, who are aligned with shareholders through their 32% equity ownership, and prime district scale exploration opportunities. Enchi's 216 km2 land package covers 40 kilometres of Ghana's prolific Bibiani Shear Zone, a gold belt which hosts several 5 million-ounce gold deposits, including Kinross' Chirano mine 50 kilometers to the north. Newcore's vision is to build a responsive, creative and powerful gold enterprise that maximizes returns for shareholders.
