Higher Gold Values at La Verde
VANCOUVER, BC - Yale Resources Ltd. reported results from the La Cobriza and San Jose targets at its wholly owned La Verde Project in Sonora, Mexico. The La Cobriza/San Jose area was previously unsampled by Yale and is located approximately 1.5 km southwest of the La Verde Grande mine. Samples collected from the San Jose area are significant as there appears to be a higher gold content in the skarn mineralization. The highest gold grade received to date is 3.66 grams per tonne gold from a sample that returned 4.44 % copper, 250.0 g/t silver, 7.64 % zinc and 3.66 g/t gold over a width of 1.55 m.
The four targets that occur in the south of the La Verde Project (The La Verdesita target, the San Louis target, the San Jose target and the La Cobriza target) are all on strike with one another and combine to form a structurally controlled zone that measures at least 2 kilometres in length.
The San Jose target is a greater than 40 metre wide fault related zone that has been traced along strike for greater than 200 metres. Within this fault zone are blocks of well mineralized skarn that measure from a metre to approximately 15 metres in size. These blocks are irregularly distributed throughout the zone.
The highest gold grade received to date is 3.66 grams per tonne gold from a sample that returned 4.44 % copper, 250.0 g/t silver, 7.64 % zinc and 3.66 g/t gold over a width of 1.55 m. This sample is from within Ôblock 1Õ, which contains two small historic workings and measures at least 15 metres across. The weighted average of ten samples within block 1 is 2.14 % copper, 115.7 g/t silver, 2.18 % zinc and 0.53 g/t gold. Approximately 40 metres to the southwest a second large block - block 2 - has been identified that measures approximately ten metres across. The weighted average of five samples from within block 2 is 3.47 % copper, 86.4 g/t silver, 5.2 % zinc and 0.54 g/t gold.
