VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 31, 2017 / GGX Gold Corp. (TSX-V: GGX), (OTC PINK: GGXXF), (the "Company" is pleased to announce the completion of a detailed soil sampling and prospecting program at the Company's Gold Drop Property. The program was completed in the Gold Drop Southwest Zone in the area of the C.O.D Vein. The area of interest is located north of the current trench and drill pad locations. The objective of the soil sampling and prospecting program was to help identify the continuity of the C.O.D Vein and possible structures between the C.O.D and the C.O.D North Zone.
The C.O.D Vein is a Dentonia/Jewel style quartz vein that has been exposed on surface during the 2017 field season. To date 200 meters of trenching has exposed over 160 meters of vein. Analytical results for 68 channel samples have been received, with samples returning anomalous to high grade values for gold, up to 43.2 g/t Gold and 224 g/t Silver (News release of July 26, 2017).
Detailed East-West soil traverses with 25 meter sample spacing have been completed in the area. Soil samples from the B horizon have been collected. The area is moderately steep with local soil and minimum glacial till only found in valley bottoms and depressions. To date 160 soil samples have been collected with a second survey currently underway in the C.O.D north area. The purpose of the second survey is to identify targets between the veins.
During the soil sampling program a small 2 meter deep adit was discovered 175 meters north of the C.O.D trench. The adit is driven on a North-south striking quartz vein that is on strike with the C.O.D vein and appears to be of the same Dentonia/Jewel style quartz vein. Samples have been collected and shipped to ALS Minerals in Vancouver foranalysis.
The area of this newly discovered adit is a trenching target. The objective of future trenching in this area is to define the vein trend and possible length. The area map of the C.O.D worksite is presented in the following map with the newly discovered adit plotted.
