Rockhaven Resources Ltd. Sept. 15 provided results from 10 additional holes drilled its Klaza gold-silver property in Yukon Territory.
This batch of results is from drilling at the Central Klaza Zone and sub-parallel vein structures that are developed in the immediate hanging wall and footwall of the zone.
Rockhaven said the majority of these subsidiary structures are outside of the current mineral resource model.
Highlights include: 9.46 grams per metric ton gold, 84.9 g/t silver, 1.83 percent lead and 2.68 percent zinc over 6.09 meters, and 11.29 g/t gold, 120 g/t silver, 1.15 percent lead and 7.93 percent zinc over 1.04 meters of hole 270; 7.01 g/t gold, 492 g/t silver, 5.3 percent lead and 5.32 percent zinc over 1.18 meters of hole 241; 8.05 g/t gold, 272 g/t silver, 4.72 percent lead and 1.53 percent zinc over 1.39 meters of hole 243; and 5.51 g/t gold, 141 g/t silver, 5.34 percent lead and 1.55 percent zinc over 2.95 meters of hole 265.
"Drilling around the existing mineral resource at the Central Klaza Zone was one of the major focus of this year's exploration program," stated Matt Turner, CEO of Rockhaven.
"These intercepts better define the geological model in this part of the deposit and should expand the area of the mineral resource." This year's 56-hole drill program at Klaza focused on expanding the current mineral resource and providing key geotechnical and environmental data to further advance the project.
