Torex Gold Reports Results from 2023 Exploration Drilling Program at Media Luna West
Results provide growing confidence in the mineralized potential of the Media Luna Cluster
TORONTO, Nov. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Torex Gold Resources Inc. (the “Company” or “Torex”) (TSX: TXG) is pleased to provide results from the 2023 exploration drilling program at Media Luna West. The drilling results support the Company's strategy to further prove up the potential of the Media Luna Cluster and unlock additional near-mine opportunities in order to enhance the future production profile of the Morelos Complex and extend the reserve life beyond 2033.
Jody Kuzenko, President & CEO of Torex, stated:
“We are highly encouraged by the results of our 2023 exploration drilling program at Media Luna West, which continue to enhance our confidence in the mineralized potential of the ever-expanding Media Luna Cluster. While exploration at Media Luna West is still at an early-stage relative to the nearby Media Luna and EPO deposits, the latest results, when combined with historical results and a new structural model, highlight the potential for Media Luna West to become a future source of feed for the Morelos Complex. Follow-up drilling at Media Luna West is planned for 2024 as we advance this zone to the next exploration stage.”
HIGHLIGHTS
Media Luna West is an earlier stage exploration target located in close proximity to the Media Luna and EPO deposits as well as existing and planned infrastructure associated with the Media Luna Project, including the Guajes Tunnel.
Several holes drilled as part of the 2023 program returned mineralized intercepts including ML23-986A which returned an impressive 29.76 grams per tonne gold equivalent (“gpt AuEq) over an interval of 14.10 metres (“m”) including 27.50 gpt gold (“Au”), 27.9 gpt silver (“Ag”), and 1.20% copper (“Cu”).
This hole was drilled approximately 200 m north of historic drill hole MLW-02 (results published on December 14, 2012) which returned intercepts of 4.11 gpt AuEq over 37.30 m and 10.41 gpt AuEq over 9.05 m, and 50 m west of historic drill hole MLW-04 (results published on October 19, 2012) which returned an intercept of 7.26 gpt AuEq over 20.32 m.
Full results from the 2023 exploration drilling program at Media Luna West are reported in Table 3. Results for historical holes drilled at Media Luna West are reported in Table 4.
2023 EXPLORATION DRILLING PROGRAM AT MEDIA LUNA WEST (FIGURE 1)
A total of seven holes (excluding three mother holes) and 9,722 m were drilled as part of the 2023 exploration drilling program at Media Luna West. The purpose of the program was to provide continuity to historical drilling carried out at Media Luna West based on the structural architecture and orebody knowledge acquired from the comprehensive drilling at the nearby EPO deposit since 2022.
Assay results from all seven drill holes have been received. Two of the drill holes (ML23-965 and ML23-970A) intersected mineralization peripheral to the main feeder of the system where high-grade gold and copper mineralization was encountered (ML23-986A).
The current distribution of the multiple intercepts confirms a north-south extension of more than 600 m with a width similar to the EPO deposit, which suggests Media Luna West could have a similar mineralized potential to that of EPO. The exploration potential of this structural corridor is open to the north and is likely favored by intersecting with the swarm of east-west dykes that define the best mineralization trap within both the nearby Media Luna and EPO deposits.

MEDIA LUNA WEST GEOLOGY
The Media Luna West target is part of the Media Luna Cluster, hosted within the Mesozoic carbonate-rich Morelos Platform, overlayed by Cuautla and Mezcala formation, and which has been intruded by Paleocene stocks, sills, and dykes of granodioritic to tonalitic composition.
The north-south trending Cuajiote thick skin fault controls the architecture of the potential deposit with other sub-parallel second order faults generating the favorable traps for the different events of fluids at multiple stages of deformation.
Skarn-hosted copper and finally gold-silver mineralization is developed in the ground preparation related to intense extension fracture in the footwall of the faults related to the emplacement of the almost North-South dykes. Also, the mineralization was favored by the contact of Morelos limestone and Media Luna granodiorite during the normal faulting, as well as within altered dykes and sills of the skarn envelope associated with minor deformation stages.
The main portion of this mineralized package is dipping approximately 70° to the west in the hanging block of main dykes and approximately 30° at the footwall associated with the flat fracturing previously developed by the reverse faulting.
The skarn is characterized by a mineral assemblage of pyroxene, garnet, and magnetite. Metal deposition and sulfidation occurred during retrograde alteration and is associated with a mineral assemblage comprising amphibole, phlogopite, chlorite, and calcite ± quartz ± epidote as well as variable amounts of magnetite and sulfides, primarily pyrrhotite. The style of mineralization at Media Luna West is characterized by gold with locally high silver and copper grades. Given that gold precipitates due to the buffer exerted by the early stage of calc-silicate alteration and sulfide mineralization, it is free and generally dissociated from the previous copper event mainly related to chalcopyrite.
QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL
At the Company’s Morelos Property (see description below), all the Media Luna Project drill core is logged and sampled at the core facility within the project camp under the supervision of Jennifer Betancourt, Chief Exploration Geologist for the Media Luna Project. A geologist marks the individual samples for analysis and sample intervals, sample numbers, standards and blanks are entered into the database. The core is cut in half lengthwise using an electric core saw equipped with a diamond tipped blade. One half of the core is placed into a plastic sample bag and sealed with zip ties in preparation for shipment. The other half of the core is returned to the core box and retained for future reference in the Company core shack with the assay pulps and coarse rejects. The core samples are picked up at the project camp and delivered to Bureau Veritas (“BV”) to conduct all the analytical work.
Sample preparation is carried out by BV at its facilities in Durango, Mexico and consists of crushing a 1 kg sample to >70% passing 2 mm followed by pulverisation of 500 g to >85% passing 75 μm. Gold is analyzed at the BV facilities in Hermosillo, Mexico following internal analytical protocols (FA430) and comprises a 30g fire assay with an atomic absorption finish. Samples yielding results >10 g/t Au are re-assayed by fire assay with gravimetric finish (FA530-Au). Copper and silver analyses are completed at the BV facilities in Vancouver, Canada as part of a multi-element geochemical analysis by an aqua regia digestion with detection by ICP-ES/MS using BV internal analytical protocol AQ270. Overlimits for the multi-element package are analyzed by internal protocol AQ374.
Torex has a sampling and analytical Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) program in place that has been approved by BV and is overseen by Jennifer Betancourt, Chief Exploration Geologist for the Media Luna Project. The program includes 5% each of Certified Reference Materials and Blanks; blind duplicates are not included, but Torex evaluates the results of internal BV laboratory duplicates. Torex uses an independent laboratory to check selected assay samples and reference materials and has retained a consultant to audit the QA/QC data for every drill campaign at Media Luna. The QA/QC procedure is described in more detail in the Technical Report filed on SEDAR.
