Access Wire
November 25 , 2013 - Vancouver,
British Columbia, Manado Gold
Corp. ("Manado")
(TSX-V: MDO) is pleased to announce that it has
completed a five-hole confirmation diamond drilling program on its
recently optioned Takla-Rainbow Property. In total, Manado drilled
605.8 metres on four sections spaced at 50-metre intervals. The
purpose of the drill program was to confirm gold-bearing
mineralization within the West zone of the Takla-Rainbow
Property.
The diamond drill core was logged
and 310 core samples, including quality control samples, were
collected. Strict quality assurance/quality control protocols
including systematic insertion of certified standard reference and
blank materials into each sample batch, plus field duplicate
sampling were instituted during the program. Samples were
transported in security-sealed bags to Acme Laboratories in
Smithers where all of the samples were prepared for gold assaying
and multi-element analyses. Assay and analytical results are
expected within 3 weeks.
About the
Takla-Rainbow Property
The Takla-Rainbow Property is
located in northcentral British Columbia, approximately 152
kilometres north-northwest of Fort St. James or 156 kilometres
northeast of Smithers. The property consists of six mineral tenures
that collectively cover 4,545.34 hectares (11,231.38 acres) along
the Twin Creek drainage. All of the claims are owned 100% by CJL
Enterprises Ltd. of Smithers, B.C., subject to the terms of an
option to purchase agreement with Manado.
The Takla-Rainbow Property was
explored by several different operators between 1969 and 1992 with
most work being carried out by Imperial Metals Corporation between
1985 and 1988 and Eastfield Resources Ltd. in 1990 and 1991. This
exploration work included extensive soil and rock sampling programs
and 87 diamond drill holes totaling 16,813 metres.
Historical exploration work
discovered several structurally-controlled zones of gold-bearing
sulphide mineralization, called the 'West', 'East' and 'South'
zones, collectively representing a possible near-surface, bulk
tonnage gold deposit. The gold-bearing mineralization is associated
with extensive pyritization along the northwesterly trending and
steeply dipping 'Twin Creek' shear zone. In addition to its
bulk-tonnage gold potential, there is also a zone of low grade
porphyry copper-type mineralization, called the 'Red' zone. A few
historical drill holes have been completed within this target but
its size and exploration potential remain largely untested.
The Takla-Rainbow Property is
underlain by calc-alkaline volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks of the
Lower Jurassic Twin Creek succession of the Takla Group. These
rocks are intruded by Early Jurassic dioritic and Early Cretaceous
granitic phases of the Hogem Batholith. A broad zone of propylitic
alteration occurs within the dioritic phases and adjacent wall
rocks. Gold mineralization on the property is spatially, and
probably genetically, related to emplacement of northwesterly
trending granitic dykes that appear related to a late phase of the
Hogem Intrusive Suite.
