DECADE PLANS INITIATION OF WORK AT DEL NORTE
Stewart, BC – Decade Resources Ltd (“Decade”) reports that it has investigated the snow
conditions at the Del Norte Project in order to start work on the K-Zone. The property is
located 34 kilometres east of Stewart, BC and is comprised of 5,830.16 ha in 13 separate
claims. It was optioned from Teuton Resource Corp. in January of 2020 with terms
allowing the Company to earn up to a 55% interest in the property by spending $4 million
over a five year period. The Company can earn an additional 20% interest by carrying
the property to commercial production.
The Del Norte property contains numerous mi neralized zones. The two most important
mineralization events are asso ciated with quartz veins and bre ccias which are spatially
restricted to felsic packages and the footwall contact of thrust zones as well as porphyry
copper-gold. In the area of thrusting, quartz veins and breccia include the Argo/LG
Vein/LG Extension Zone, Kosciuszko Zone/ SP, Eagle’s Nest, and the low sulphidation
New zone. The Argo/LG Vein/LG Extension Zone has been traced over 1.2 km while the
New zone was observed over 100 m of strike in a high mountain pass between 2 ice
fields. The Kosciuszko/ SP zone has been traced ov er 1.2 km as well, while the Eagle’s
Nest zone has been traced over 400m.These are marked by a distinct alteration halo,
with a propylitic zone constituting the outer envelope of the miner alization. Galena,
sphalerite, pyrite and minor chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite are common in these quartz
veins.
The porphyry copper-gold mineralization has numerous copper showings associated with
this style along the south slopes of Del Norte Creek.
The photo below taken on July 21 2024 for the K-zone shows the mineralized zone cross
cutting the strike of sediments to the left with felsic volcanics to the right. The felsic
volcanics are located stratigraphically at the same geological horizon as that hosting the
Eskay Creek deposit.
In 2002 and 2006 trenching on the K-zone, the following results were obtained:
Year of Trenching Width (m) Au g/t A g g/t
2002 10 6.14 630.86
2006 15 3.93 267.59
The 2002 sampling was 50 m down hill from the 2006 sampling which was above the
2002 drilling. With the recent abl ation of the glacial ice, more of the K-zone is exposed
below the 2002 sampling which will be the focus of 2024 exploration. Work will be focused
on expanding the drill results obtained below:
Drill hole Width (m) Au g/t A g g/t
2002-01 31.3 3.57 192.3
2002-02 32.9 4.59 176.7
2002-03 23.4 7.64 277.3
The Company anticipates starting the work in the next several weeks.
