ML Gold intersects 230 metres with Visual Copper Mineralization Over 1km Away
From Previously Reported Drilling on Stars Project -
Increases Land Positions in Central BC
ML Gold Corp. (TSX-V: MLG) (“ML Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it
has intersected a 230 metre interval with visual copper and molybdenum at its Stars project
in Central BC. This hole was drilled into target area B (“Target B”) over 1 kilometre (km)
west of the previously reported drilling. While observed mineralization in hole 5 is not
visually as intense as in hole 4, i t is probable that the mineralization is part of the same
system identified 1 km to the east, indicating that the system is much larger than previously
thought.
Hole 5 (DD18SS005) encountered visible copper and molybdenum mineralization occurring
as veins individually ranging from 0.1 – 2 cm wide throughout an interval from 47.2 metres
to approximately 27 7 metres depth before being truncated by a fault zone. The hole
continued in variably altered intrusive rock to a total depth of 364 metres . The veins are
hosted within monzo -granodiorite similar to that observed in the first 4 holes. Moderate to
strong potassium feldspar alteration is present as selvages along the margins of the veins
and occasional bornite is observed. True widths of the intervals are not known at this time.
Adrian Smith, President of ML Gold comments “ Copper mineralization has now been
observed over 1km away from hole 4 and confirms that we have a large system on our
hands. Further , detailed logging of hole 4 indicates it could in a high level setting of a
copper rich porphyry system. W e are seeing copper veining cutting multiple rock types ,
including earlier copper veins , implying a large scale with multiple pulses of copper rich
fluids. We feel extremely lucky that mineralization begins at surface and feel confident that
it could extend to significant depth.”
Core from hole 5 will be process ed immediately following hole 4. Current logging and
sampling of hole 4 is nearing completion and will be immediately shipped to the assay lab
where the company anticipates rushing analysis on the samples.
All core samples from the Stars project are being shipped to MS Analytical labs in Langley
BC for analysis, results will be made available once they have been received and reviewed
for Quality Assurance and Quality Control (“QAQC”).
In addition, the Company is completing a detailed airborne magnetic geoph ysics survey to
further define the target areas within the property and assist in follow up drilling.
The Company has also increased the size of the Stars Project by an additional 1,626
hectares, and separately secured over 1,875 hectares of 100% owned mineral claims
immediately to the north of, and adjoining the Huckleberry mining lease currently owned by
Imperial Metals Corp.
