About Delta Resources Limited
Delta Resources Limited is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on growing shareholder value through
the exploration of two very high-potential gold and base-metal projects in Canada.
DELTA-1 is Delta’s flagship project, where the company is building gold ounces 50 kilometres west of Thunder Bay,
Ontario, at surface and adjacent to the Trans -Canada highway. To date, the gold mineralization is defined over
1.8 km from surface to a vertical depth of 250 m. Highlights include d rill intercepts such as 5.92 g/t Au over 31 m
(incl. 14.8 g/t Au over 11.9 m), and 1.79 g/t Au over 128.5 m. The property covers 107 square kilometres and Delta
has identified a 5 km long corridor of intense alteration and deformation at the property, on strike with the gold zone,
that has yet to be thoroughly explored.
The DELTA-2 property covers 194 square kilometres in the prolific Chibougamau District of Quebec. The property
holds excellent potential for gold-rich polymetallic VMS deposits as well as hydrothermal-gold deposits. Delta targets
VMS deposits such as the LeMoine past producer where 0.76 Mt were mined between 1975 and 1983, grading
9.6% Zn, 4.2% Cu, 4.5 g/t Au and 84 g/t Ag.
