Trijet Mining Completes First Five Drill-holes at Letourneur, Results Pending |
thenewswire.ca - Mar 29, 2011 |
March 29, 2011, Vancouver British Columbia: Trijet Mining Corp. (TSX.V: TJT, TRJTF.PK) announces that five diamond drill-holes have been completed at the Letourneur gold project in western Quebec. The Letourneur project is located in the prolific gold producing Abitibi region of southwestern Quebec, 41 km north of Rouyn-Noranda, in the regional municipality of Taschereau and is within 20km ENE of the Osisko-Clifton Star's Duparquet project and 20km north of Exploration Typhoon's LaFayolle project.
The Phase II drill program undertaken in March 2011 consists of 4,000 meters of drill-core. The first 14 holes are aligned parallel to and situated on the northern side of the Lois Lake fault which defines a structural boundary between the mafic tholeiitic and felsic calco-alcaline volcanic assemblages of the Hunter Mine Group. The fault extends along an ENE-WSW direction for 3.3 kilometers. Preliminary results from the first 5 holes reveal a favorable geological context and structures susceptible of containing gold mineralization. Several intersections expose numerous stockwerks, veins and veinlets of quartz-carbonate in pyritized wallrock composed of tholeiitic basalt, intermediate tuff, detrital and chemical sediment (jaspillite). The rocks are crushed, deformed and highly altered (silicification, hematization, sericitization, chloritization) within the Lake Lois Fault Zone. Fuschite, a chromian green mica commonly found in alteration zones associated with gold mineralization, was observed in the core. Assay results for gold are pending and should be obtained within the next two weeks.
