High-Grade Gold Results From Drilling in Red Lake: Redstar Drills 22.0 Metres of 5.23 g/t Gold at Newman Todd
2011年10月19日 - 9:00PM
Marketwired
Redstar Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RGC) is pleased to report
additional results from the on-going drilling program at the Newman
Todd property in the Red Lake Gold District, Ontario. The work is
being funded by the operator, Confederation Minerals Ltd.
(Confederation) (TSX VENTURE:CFM). These results are from wide
spaced drilling along the Newman Todd Structure ("NTS") where
drilling has been continuing since January of 2011. The NTS is a
large scale structural zone which is host to widespread high-grade
gold mineralization over a strike length of 1.6 kilometres. The
highlight hole from the latest results returned 22.0 metres of 5.23
g/t gold from this new high-grade gold discovery. Historical
drilling and geophysics indicate that the NTS extends for at least
2.2 kilometres opening up significant expansion potential.
Scott Weekes, President of Redstar states: "This latest batch of
results continues to highlight similarities between the Newman Todd
project and the alteration and mineralization at Goldcorp's
world-class Red Lake Mine 20 kilometres to the southeast. Drill
hole NT-076 was drilled into the Hinge Zone and intersected one of
the widest intervals of gold mineralization yet at Newman Todd. The
Hinge Zone area is becoming one the highest priority target areas
at Newman Todd, with nine holes currently completed over a strike
length of 400 metres. Eight of the nine holes have intercepts of
greater than 10 g/t gold, including a total of 9 intercepts greater
than 20 g/t gold and 4 intercepts greater than 30 g/t gold. We
continue to be encouraged by the scale and grade of the Newman Todd
discovery, and look forward to additional results from the ongoing
drill program."
Highlights from recently completed 4 drill holes:
-- NT-076 intersects 22.0 metres of 5.23 g/t gold including 2.0 metres of
20.15 g/t gold and including 1.0 metre of 41.20 g/t gold.
-- NT-075 intersects 10 metres of 2.27 g/t gold including 0.50 metre of
8.86 g/t gold and 2.0 metres of 7.16 g/t gold including 1.0 metre of
10.80 g/t gold.
Overview of Discovery
Drilling at Newman Todd has discovered multiple sub-parallel
zones of high-grade gold mineralization often associated with
significant widths of lower grade mineralization (see table 1) in a
number of target areas. The Hinge Zone has emerged as a priority
target returning some of the highest grades and broadest widths
(see Table 2). The Hinge Zone is located at a kink or bend in the
NTS and is associated with a distinct magnetic anomaly. In
addition, the Hinge Zone has several alteration and mineralization
similarities to Goldcorp's high-grade Red Lake mine located 20
kilometres to the southeast.
To date, 44 drill holes have been completed in 2011 and results
have been received for 21. Two drills continue to be active on the
project and additional results will be released when received.

(i) Width is calculated as core length and does not imply true width of the
zone. Weighted average gold intervals apply a 0.25 g/t lower cut-off.
Internal dilution within reported intervals does not exceed core
lengths of two metres unless otherwise indicated.
(ii) Cross sections are spaced 25 metres apart across the entire NTS,
Section 1375 marks the centre of the Heath Bull Zone.
Discussion of Results:
Drill Hole NT-076 is a 50 metre step out northeast of the
"Hinge" zone of mineralization identified in 2008. This area is
interpreted to be part of a major bend in the NTS where cross
cutting structures have been identified in drilling and geological
mapping. Drilling in this area has returned nine greater than 20
g/t gold intercepts along a 400 metre corridor in shallow drilling
in eight holes. Table 2 shows a summary of all reported results
from the Hinge Zone area.
Drill Hole NT-075, on section 2250, intersected gold
mineralization approximately 40 metres below the high-grade
intercept in Drill Hole NT-073 (242 g/t gold over 0.50 metres).
Exploration work at the Newman Todd project is funded by
Confederation Minerals Ltd. (Confederation) (TSX VENTURE:CFM).
Confederation can earn a 50% interest in the project by spending
$5.0 million in exploration by November 2013, and an additional 20%
by producing a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) by November
2016. During the earn-in period,Confederation is the operator of
the project.
Core samples from the program were cut in half, using a diamond
cutting saw, and were sent to Activation Laboratories Ltd. in Red
Lake Ontario, an accredited mineral analysis laboratory, for
analysis. All samples were analyzed for gold using standard Fire
Assay-AA techniques. Samples returning over 3.0 g/t gold were
analyzed utilizing standard Fire Assay-Gravimetric methods.
Certified gold reference standards, blanks and field duplicates
were routinely inserted into the sample stream, as part of
Confederation's quality control/quality assurance program.

About Redstar Gold Corp.
Redstar recently acquired a high-grade epithermal gold district
in Alaska that is a good complement to the high-grade gold
discovery in Red Lake, Ontario. The Shumagin project in Alaska
includes a high-grade gold deposit with a non 43-101 compliant
resource, a bulk tonnage non 43-101 compliant resource, a historic
high-grade gold mine, and numerous high priority exploration
targets. At the Shumagin project in Alaska a drilling program is
currently underway, and an aggressive drill program is ongoing on
Redstar's high-grade gold discovery at the Newman-Todd project in
Red Lake, Ontario. Along with the high-grade gold projects in
Alaska and Red Lake, the company also has a total of 14 gold
focused projects in Nevada.
