ML Gold Targets Mineralized Feldspar Porphyry and Breccia with grades in excess of 0.5%
Copper Drilling at Stars Project
ML Gold Corp. (TSX-V: MLG; FSE: XOVN.F) (“ML Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to
announce that crews are now back in the field drilling at the Stars project following a temporary break as
a result of the abnormal wildfire season in central BC. Drilling is set to continue through October and will
target the newly identified porphyry and the related fluid “conduit” responsible for copper mineralization
on the Stars project.
New hydrothermal breccias identified in drill core w ith grades in excess of 0.5% copper, cemented with
chalcopyrite, are important indications that there is a significant copper bearing hydrothermal system
intimately related to the newly identified porphyry. Specifically, several 10 foot samples grading up to
0.78% Copper are attributed to this early potassic ph ase which occur within the previously reported Hole
10 interval of 189 meters at 0.33% CuEq. Drilling will continue to test the copper bearing breccias and
intrusions, and test the mineralization to greater depths where more consistent higher grades of copper are
anticipated.
Newly identified copper breccia in Hole 10 (DD18SS010) and its significance:
- Early hydrothermal breccia event developed during potassic conditions based on absence of
pyrite and sericite in the matrix.
- Dynamic system where a copper-bearing hydrothermal fluid has exploded to produce the breccia
composed of coeval porphyry and the chalcopyrite cement.
- Predictable zonation with pyrite dominant at the top moving to lower sulphidation state
mineralogy (chalcopyrite, chalcopyrite-bornite, bornite) at depth.
- High in the system, leaving significant potential at depth.
- Early in discovery cycle.
Assays from additional completed holes are pending, and will be released as soon as possible.
ML Gold’s Stars project is ideally located 60km southwest of the resource town of Houston, B.C. The
project site is low-elevation, gentle topography, and is accessible by all-season main line resource roads
making it ideal for low-cost mine development.
Adrian Smith, President of ML Gold comments “We ar e extremely excited to continue drilling and to
follow the newly identified copper system into a pot entially economic ore body. Being involved in such
an early stage project that is having success in only its first year of exploration is full of exciting
milestones; I believe the recent identification of a mineralized porphyry and breccia with grades in excess
of 0.5% Copper is one of those milestones.”
