Brixton Metals Corp. Oct. 31 reported initial drill results from the second phase of 2016 exploration at its 100 Thorn gold-silver project in northwestern British Columbia.
Hole 132, drilled in the property''s Outlaw zone, cut two gold intercepts. Starting at surface, this hole cut 18 meters of 1.61 grams per metric ton gold and 12.3 g/t silver; and from a depth of 78 meters this hole cut 52.
Hole 133, also drilled at Outlaw, cut 13 meters of 1.73 g/t gold and 7.3 g/t silver from surface.
Brixton said these intercepts confirm the extension of sediment-hosted gold mineralization at Outlaw, which is defined by a 3,500-meter-long gold-in-soil anomaly.
Results from three additional holes drilled at Outlaw and four holes at the Aberlour zone.
In addition to drilling, Brixton's second phase of exploration at Thorn included the collection of 1,453 soil and 88 rock samples across the property, and an induced polarization geophysics survey at the Chivas zone.
