Origen Resources Inc. announced results from the recent Wishbone Project site visit and sampling program completed by Dr. Thomas Hawkins and John Harrop. New high-grade gold samples were found at surface in glacial boulders on both edges of the rapidly-retreating central glacier. New results from boulders found along the southern edge of the central glacier have returned 202.6 ppm gold in an area that was previously identified as being a primary silver-rich zone. Separate samples collected from boulders from this area contained up to 109 ppm silver and 1.2% copper. At the Windy showing located on the northern part of the property, two notable soil samples were collected south of historical drilling and trenching for confirmation of a historical gold in soil anomaly. The two samples returned 1.08 ppm gold and 8.57 ppm gold. There is no known mineralisation in the area of these results. Following up on the results will be a priority next year. During the brief site visit, gold was found in exposed structurally-hosted gold veins at the `Goldie' target, an
area lying between the Windy and Rat showings. This find shows that the ground between the two historically richest prospects remains prospective for gold-bearing structures. Very little exploration has been completed on this area to date. Of the 53 rock samples collected across the entire property, 35 contained greater than 0.1ppm gold, with 15 samples greater than 1 ppm gold. Wishbone is 100% owned by Origen and is located in the prolific Golden Triangle in northern British Columbia, adjacent to the Galore Creek project jointly owned by Teck Resources and Newmont Gold. Covering 3,941
hectares, Wishbone has 11 target areas covering significantly high-grade gold-silver quartz-carbonate as well as volcanogenic massive sulphide-style mineralization. Boulders have been found at the base of the rapidly retreating central glacier of up to 202.6 g/t gold. Origen will be using additional geophysics and mapping to pinpoint a likely hard rock source of these high-grade boulders.
