Vancouver - Tarachi Gold Corp. (CSE: TRG) (OTCQB: TRGGF) (Frankfurt: 4RZ) ('Tarachi' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce assay results from the tailings drilling program completed in May at the Company's wholly owned Magistral Mill and Tailings Project ('Magistral') in Durango, Mexico.
A total of 37 vertical auger holes were completed to depths ranging from 1.3 to 14.5 metres with an average depth of 6.6 metres. Samples were collected in 70-centimetrelong intervals using a Shelby sample capture tube system and sent to Activation Laboratories Ltd. in Kamloops, British Columbia for assaying after being logged by the Company's geology team on site. Sample recovery averaged 95.9%. Two adjacent samples were combined to form 1.4-metre composites where possible at the lab with a total of 178 composites and samples assayed.
The 171 gold tailings samples ranged in grade from 0.89 to 4.12g/t with an average of 2.04g/t Au.
Tarachi CEO, Cameron Tymstra, commented: 'We are incredibly pleased with the results of our tailings drilling program at Magistral. While delays at the assay labs held up this data for several months, these results confirm the historic gold grade estimates for the basin and contribute to the de-risking of the Magistral project. These grades would be impressive for any open pit mining operation, but for a project where the material has already been mined, crushed and ground, you can really get a sense of the potential value here. With assays in hand and much of the metallurgical work completed, Ausenco Engineering now has the majority of the data required to complete the resource estimate and preliminary economic assessment for Magistral, now expected in November.'
About Tarachi Gold
Tarachi Gold is a Canadian-listed junior gold exploration company focused on exploring and developing projects in Mexico. Tarachi acquired the Magistral Mill and tailings project in Durango, Mexico in 2021. Magistral includes a 1,000 tpd mill and access to a tailings resource (non-compliant with NI 43-101) estimated to contain 1.29Mt at 2.06g/t Au which the Company expects to bring into production in 2022. The historical estimate was completed by Corporation Ambiental de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (CAM) in 2011 which helped only in determining the drill collar locations of the Company's recently completed drilling program as part of the ongoing Magistral preliminary economic assessment (PEA).
The Company also has exploration projects covering 3,708ha of highly prospective mineral concessions in the Sierra Madre gold belt of Sonora, Mexico in close proximity to Alamos Gold's Mulatos mine and Agnico Eagle's La India mine
