Yale Discovers Silver-Lead Targets at Dos Naciones
VANCOUVER, BC - Yale Resources Ltd. and reported that it has discovered two new silver-lead targets at its wholly owned Dos Naciones Project in Sonora State, Mexico. A select sample of mineralized dump material at the entrance to a small historical working returned 591.0 grams per tonne (g/t) silver and 12.6 % lead.
The first target, located at the geographic centre of the property, consists of a series of sub-parallel veins ranging from 0.5 to 3.0 metres in width. The veins have been traced over a strike length of at least 250 metres and the target remains open in all directions. A total of six reconnaissance samples were taken with three of them being from vein, one from the dump (quoted above) and two from altered host rocks. One of the outcrop samples returned 111.0 g/t silver over 1.9 metres.
The second new target area within the property is located two kilometres to the southwest. A set of silver-lead veins occur within intrusive host rocks over an area that measures approximately 100 metres wide. There are numerous historic mines on at least two levels with a majority of these workings having collapsed over time. Two samples were taken from the mineralized dumps at the mouths of these workings: one returned 256.0 g/t silver and 4.45 % lead while the second returned 182.0 g/t silver and 3.29 % lead as well as 0.61 g/t gold.
Follow up work at Dos Naciones will involve trenching, geological mapping, sampling and additional prospecting.
The Dos Naciones property is 2,391 hectares (or 23.91 square km) in size and is located approximately 160 km northeast of Hermosillo in the heart of Sonora's porphyry district. The property contains multiple areas of historic mining. The potential for a porphyry-style target within the property is evidenced by multiple skarn bodies occurring in association with a regional magnetic anomaly that measures 2 km in diameter.
