MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - Nov. 10, 2017) - DIOS EXPLORATION (TSX VENTURE:DOS) undertakes a ground geophysical Induced Polarization survey to better define three drill targets on AU33 gold project, James Bay Eeyou Istchee, Quebec:
- CLN goldbearing shear
- Fold nose target
- Robino breccia adjacent low mag
1. The CLN gold showing returned gold assays in grams/ton up to
| 12.55; | 6.64; | 4.66; | 4.45; | 2.01; | 1.98 | g/t gold |
along a 135 meter shear strike in lower part of a cliff. Previous CLN sampling on upper south part of this 10 m high cliff yielded values of:
| 2.23; | 2.56; | 5.15; | 12.65 | g/t gold. |
A value of 2.7 g/t gold was returned 425 m away along this subsidiary shear of major Chain Lake structure. See maps below.
CLN zone is quite similar to Heberto gold zone, 3 km south-southwest
(4.8 g/t gold over 8.65 m and 3.7 g/t gold over 13 m true widths).
2. Fold nose target will also be drilled, a folded mineralized magnetic tonalite horizon with quartz stringers, 8-9 km east of Heberto discovery.
Fold nose target is located up-ice of strong gold-in-till anomalies and Chain Lake structure goes straight through the fold hinge. Structures and fold hinges help to concentrate gold to produce gold enrichment such as a gold deposit.
Out of 18 till samples taken in that fold nose area, 16 returned very significant high values over 0.100 grams gold per tonne:
| 2.09 | 1.39 | 1.26 | 0.78 | 0.73 | 0.62 | 0.58 | 0.392 | 0.353 | 0.349 | 0.292 | 0.287 | 0.222 |
3. Robino magmatic hydrothermal breccia and adjacent low mag target
Robino low mag is not outcropping and IP surveys will help define disseminated sulphide targets. Robino breccia returned up to 37 g/t gold.
