Whistler returns long gold hit for Kiska Metals

摘要

The first hole in a five-hole drill program testing outlying targets within Kiska Metals' (KSK-V, KSKTF-O) Whistler project hit almost 400 metres of gold mineralization, including 106.9 metres grading 1.22 grams gold per tonne, in a new zone. Hole 1 probed the Island Mountain target, which is 23 km south of the Whistler deposit. The hole returned a 382.9-metre intercept grading 0.68 gram gold that started essentially at surface and spanned two zones: the upper 150 metres consisted of hydrothermal breccia mineralization grading 0.72 gram gold, while the lower 106.9 metres comprised pyrrhotite veins and vein halos grading 1.22 grams gold.
