Yale Resources Ltd. is pleased to report that a phase one work program performed on behalf of the optionee Overlord Capital Corp. has successfully confirmed multiple gold-silver soil anomalies as well as a trench over 25 metres averaging 0.67 g/t gold within the Orofino Project, located in Sonora State, Mexico.
Cangold Limited provides an update from the recent field work program on the Plomo gold project in northern Sonora, Mexico. Further geological mapping and detailed surface rock sampling was completed to locate and delineate complex structural zones and associated low grade bulk tonnage gold mineralization for follow-up drill testing. Several new areas of gold mineralization were discovered such that the Plomo project now has nine gold zones associated with low angle faulting within a one and a half by five kilometre area.
Focus Ventures Ltd. is pleased to announce assays from initial channel sampling at its Reventon property within the Santa Cruz project. Prospecting and sampling has confirmed high-grade silver mineralization associated with multiple zones of hydrothermal breccias in areas of strongly anomalous silver-in-soil geochemistry.
