Gitennes’ Acquisition of High Grade Gold-Silver Maroon Project Receives Exchange Approval
Gitennes’ Acquisition of High Grade Gold-Silver Maroon Project Receives
Exchange Approval
Vancouver, B.C. / TheNewswire / June 4, 2018 - Gitennes Exploration Inc. (TSXV – GIT) announces
that further to its release dated May 10 on the acquisition of the high grade gold-silver Maroon
Project it has received TSX Venture Exchange approval. Gitennes has the right to acquire 100% of
the high grade Maroon gold-silver Project which is located 35 km north of Terrace, British Columbia.
The Maroon Project acquisition continues Gitennes’ recent strategy of focusing on high grade gold
properties that can be progressed relatively quickly to the drill stage. The Company plans surface
exploration over the next couple of months follow by a diamond drill programme.
Mineralization at Maroon is within a structural corridor containing multiple, sediment-hosted high-
grade polymetallic quartz-sulfide veins ( Au-Ag-Cu-Zn-Pb). Exposed veins are greater than one
metre wide, have been traced along surface for up to 1,800 metres and remain open to the
northeast, southwest and at depth.
Exploration in the 1920's and 1930's led to the discovery of a number of outcropping auriferous
polymetallic quartz sulphide veins hosted within greywackes and siltstones, concentrated
approximately 30 metres below a 35 to 70 metre thick conglomerate bed. The BC Minister of Mines
Annual Report from 1928 mentions a shipment of 25 tons of material from the Bear Vein (BC Minfile
103I 030) on adjacent claims that yielded the following grades:
1.48 ozs/t gold, 4.6 ozs/t silver, 8.4% zinc and 4.9% lead *
The Bear Vein can be traced for approximately 1.8 km on Gitennes’ property and limited diamond
drilling over a short strike length returned the following results *:
o 0.63 metres grading 26.1 g/t gold, 32.6 g/t silver, 2.97% zinc and 1.62% lead;
o 0.30 metres grading 18.9 g/t gold, 117 g/t silver, 3.89% zinc and 6.20% lead;
o 0.43 metres grading 5.9 g/t gold, 56.1 g/t silver, 8.6% zinc and 3.00% lead
* Readers are cautioned that a "qualified person" (as defined by National Instrument 43-101) has not yet completed sufficient
work to be able to verify the historical information, and therefore the information should not be relied upon.
Surface sampling to date by previous operators has yielded multiple gram gold grades over
widths of up to three metres. Two lenses of good grade material have been identified from
surface sampling; these include a southwest lens with an averaging 8.98 grams/tonne gold over
an average sample width of 1.43 metres and a strike length of 168 metres and a northeast lens
grading 21.93 grams/tonne gold over an average sample width of 1.24 metres and a strike
length of 140 metres.
