Potential for Multiple Gold Deposits Targeted at Depth Using VTEM Technology
Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Gold in rock grab samples associated with quartz veining can be traced for over 6 kilometres on PJX Resources’ Zinger Property. Gold values range from being anomalous to over 30 g/t. Recently announced ground geophysics has identified slope dip structures that appear to correlate with high gold values in soil, up to 4.9 g/t. We are pleased to announce that airborne VTEM geophysics has defined what management believes is a large slope dip structure at depth that expands the potential to have multiple gold deposits.
Early Time VTEM conductivity data has identified areas in the rock that are more resistive (see blue areas on attached Early Time map (http://pjxresources.com/vtem-early-time.jpg)). Resistive zones in rock can be associated with areas of increased quartz veining. Gold mineralization on the Zinger Property is associated with quartz veining. The Early time map shows the geophysical signature of rocks near surface. As the map displays, gold in rock samples taken from outcrops at surface are somewhat coincident with the near surface resistive zones. This correlation can be traced along the 6 km long gold in rock trend.
Late Time VTEM data shows the geophysical signature of rocks at depth. The Late Time conductivity map shows a large resistive zone at depth that is over 4 km long by 2 km wide (see blue area on attached Late Time map (http://pjxresources.com/vtem-late-time.jpg). This large resistivity anomaly correlates with the 6 km long gold in rock trend as well as other gold zones found on the Zinger property. Management believes that this sizeable resistive zone represents a large slope dip structure at depth that may be an important controlling factor in the distribution and deposition of gold on the Zinger Property.
“The Zinger Property has one of the largest gold in rock trends that I have come across”. states Mr. John Keating, President and CEO. “The discovery of a possible large structural zone at depth that appears to be coincident with gold mineralization at surface supports the potential to have multiple deposits along the 6 km gold trend. Gold mineralization may be more concentrated at depth where the slope dip structure intersects the vertical fold structures and/or favourable rock types for hosting gold.”
Vine Property Update
Drilling continues to explore for a Sullivan type (zinc, lead, silver) massive sulphide deposit on the Vine Property. Drilling to date supports the potential for a bedded massive sulphide deposit associated with the Company’s large West Gravity anomaly, and a possible folded massive sulphide deposit associated with the large East Gravity anomaly. Some of the best sphalerite (zinc) mineralization drilled to date occurs in folded phyllitic rocks above a major regional structure called the Moyie fault. Further drilling is planned to test this folded horizon within and around the East Gravity anomaly.
