Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Recent exploration has identified 2 target areas with gold mineralization potential on PJX Resources’ Dewdney Trail Property in the Cranbrook area of British Columbia.
Dewdney Trail Property
As announced August 25th, 2016, stream sediment sampling for heavy minerals, such as gold, identified a new large target area that could host a bedrock source for the gold that placer miners are extracting down-stream from the property. Recent additional heavy mineral sampling has narrowed the exploration search down to 2 drainages within the new target area. Each of the drainages is approximately 500 metres by 600 metres in size. Mapping and prospecting is being focused on these drainages to identify the bedrock source of gold that is found in the streams.
Gold mineralization on the Dewdney Trail Property appears to be associated with quartz-carbonate altered and locally brecciated sediments along a 7 kilometre long anticline fold axis. The fold axis is intruded by Cretaceous and possibly Tertiary age felsic to mafic intrusives. The broad distribution of anomalous gold mineralization associated with this type of geological environment suggests the potential for Thermal Aureole Gold or Sediment-Hosted gold deposits such as Muruntau, Fort Knox, or Sukhoi-Log.
Zinger Property
Exploration for gold on the Zinger Property is also underway. The Zinger Property has numerous gold showings along an 8 km strike length. The gold mineralization appears to be associated with quartz veining and/or flooding in folded and sheared siltstones and argillites. Soil sampling in one area has identified an anomaly approximately 100m wide and over 300m long with gold in soil values ranging from 100 ppb (parts per billion) to 4941 ppb (or 4.941 g/t). Trenching followed by drilling is planned for this anomaly and other areas on the property.
PJX holds a 100% interest in the properties. They are all road accessible, located close to rail, power and a local workforce in Cranbrook and Kimberley, British Columbia.
The foregoing geological disclosure has been reviewed by John Keating P.Geo. (a qualified person for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects). Mr. Keating is the President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director of PJX.
