    Labrador Gold Intercepts 50.38 g/t Over 1.85 Metres Including 160.42 g/t Over 0.55 Metres at Big Vein, Kingsway Project, Newfoundland


    TORONTO, June 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce another high-grade intercept of near surface gold mineralization from its Kingsway project near Gander, Newfoundland. The Kingsway project is located in the highly prospective central Newfoundland gold belt.
    The high-grade intersection is from hole K-21-17 that contains fine particles of visible gold in quartz vein. The hole intersected 50.38 g/t Au over 1.85 metres including 160.42 g/t over 0.55 metres. The quartz vein containing the visible gold is typically vuggy and locally contains stylolites and is similar to quartz veins containing high grade gold intersections of 20.6 g/t Au over 3.6 metres including 103.36 g/t over 0.3 metres and 10.48 g/t Au over 2.4 metres reported previously (see news release dated June 3, 2021). The intersection in hole K-21-17 represents a 30 metre step out to the northeast from the previous intercepts and extends the high-grade mineralization to approximately 40 metres along strike. The mineralization remains open in both directions. A summary of the high-grade intersection, as well as other assays received to date, are given in Table 1 below

  • Labrador Gold Intersects 128.51 g/t Gold Over 1.12 Metres at Big Vein, Kingsway Project


    TORONTO, Sept. 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce further high-grade intercepts of near surface gold mineralization along the Appleton Fault Zone at its 100% controlled Kingsway project near Gander, Newfoundland. These holes were drilled as part of the Company’s 50,000 metre drill program. The Kingsway project is located in the highly prospective central Newfoundland gold belt.
    Three holes K-21-47, -48, and -49 all contained intervals grading more than 12g/t Au. Hole K-21-47 intersected 128.51 g/t Au over 1.12m from 168 metres in the HTC Zone which represents a “metal factor” (grade x width) of 143.9 g/t Au x m*. Hole K-21-48 intersected 35.7 g/t Au over 1.55m from 12.22m and hole K-21-49 intersected 9.6g/t Au over 10m from 51m, including 76.86g/t Au over 1m. Both intersections in holes K-21-48 and -49 are in the Big Vein Zone. A summary of the high-grade intersections, as well as other holes with assays recently received, are given in Table 1 below. *The width used to calculate metal factor is downhole width as there is insufficient information to calculate true width...

  • Labrador Gold Announces Receipt of Drill Permit for Appleton Fault Targets, Mobilizes Drill


    TORONTO, Oct. 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the receipt of Exploration Approval for diamond drilling of regional Appleton Fault Zone targets at its 100% controlled Kingsway Project near Gander, Newfoundland. The Kingsway project is located within the highly prospective Gander Gold District.
    LabGold has mobilized a drill rig to the first target, located approximately 800m northeast of Big Vein (see Figure 1) and the Company expects drilling to begin this week. Initial drilling will take place up ice from where a significant number of pristine gold grains in till were found earlier this year (see news release dated August 5, 2021). Follow up exploration by the LabGold team has demonstrated the potential of this area and defined drill targets will be systematically drilled over the coming weeks. This is one of several gold anomalies comprising the “string of pearls” along the Appleton Fault Zone that are in various stages of advancement.

    About Labrador Gold
    Labrador Gold is a Canadian based mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of prospective gold projects in Eastern Canada.
    In early March 2020, Labrador Gold acquired the option to earn a 100% interest in the Kingsway project in the Gander area of Newfoundland. The three licenses comprising the Kingsway project cover approximately 16km of the Appleton fault zone which is associated with gold occurrences in the region, including the New Found Gold discovery. Infrastructure in the area is excellent located just 18km from the town of Gander with road access to the project, nearby electricity and abundant local water. LabGold recently increased its 20,000 metre diamond drill program to 50,000 metres targeting high-grade epizonal gold mineralization following encouraging early results. The Company has approximately $34 million in working capital and is well funded to carry out the planned program.
    The Hopedale property covers much of the Hunt River and Florence Lake greenstone belts that stretch over 80 km. The belts are typical of greenstone belts around the world but have been underexplored by comparison. Initial work by Labrador Gold during 2017 show gold anomalies in soils and lake sediments over a 3 kilometre section of the northern portion of the Florence Lake greenstone belt in the vicinity of the known Thurber Dog gold showing where grab samples assayed up to 7.8g/t gold. In addition, anomalous gold in soil and lake sediment samples occur over approximately 40 kilometres along the southern section of the greenstone belt (see news release dated January 25 th 2018 for more details). Labrador Gold now controls approximately 57km strike length of the Florence Lake Greenstone Belt.
    The Company has 152,912,462 common shares issued and outstanding and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol LAB.

  • Labrador Gold Intersects 50.52 g/t Gold Over 2 Metres at Kingsway


    TORONTO, Jan. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce further high-grade intercepts of near surface gold mineralization along the Appleton Fault Zone at its 100% controlled Kingsway project near Gander, Newfoundland. These holes were drilled as part of the Company’s ongoing 50,000 metre drill program. The Kingsway project is located in the highly prospective central Newfoundland gold belt.
    High grade gold continues to be found at Big Vein including intercepts of 50.52 g/t Au over 2m in hole K-21-76 from the HTC Footwall Zone. A deeper (200m to 201m) intercept of 15.86 g/t Au over 1 m from the same hole appears to be from a new zone. Approximately 135 metres along strike to the southwest, Hole K-21-74 intersected 2.86 g/t Au over 25m including 16.21g/t Au over 1m and 5.7g/t over 7m in a possible new zone in the immediate footwall to the Big Vein Zone. Testing further to the Southwest along Big Vein indicates consistent increased width of mineralization in the Big Vein zone as shown here by Hole K-21-75, that intersected 3.33 g/t Au over 4m within a larger intercept of 12m grading 1.62 g/t Au from 28m.
    “Drilling at Big Vein continues to turn up high grade gold mineralization both down plunge and along strike. Two potential new zones are indicated by these results and grade 15.86 g/t Au over 1m in Hole K-21-76 and 16.21 g/t Au over 1m within a larger 29m interval in hole K-21-74 located 135m along strike to the southwest,” said Roger Moss, President and CEO of the Company. “We are very encouraged by the thickening of the Big Vein Zone to the southwest and look forward to results from many more holes drilled in this area. Drilling continues along strike to the southwest and down plunge at Big Vein. Drilling is also ongoing at the Pristine Target from which we are still awaiting the first assays.”

  • Labrador Gold Announces Doubling of Drill Program to 100,000 Metres and Increase to Five Drill Rigs


    TORONTO, Jan. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6) (“LabGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a significant increase to its diamond drilling program, at the 100% controlled Kingsway project near Gander, Newfoundland. This increase follows the Company’s success exploring along the Appleton Fault Zone over the past 18 months. The Kingsway project is located in the highly prospective central Newfoundland gold belt.
    LabGold plans to double the current drilling program to 100,000 metres which includes the outstanding 23,000 metres remaining in the current 50,000 metre program. Four diamond drill rigs are currently operating at Kingsway and a fifth rig is scheduled to start following receipt of permits. Applications for 111 drill holes were submitted late last year and are expected in early March. The increased program is fully funded by the Company’s cash on hand of approximately $30 million.
    Drilling will continue to test Big Vein along strike and down plunge as well as the Pristine target where early drilling is encouraging. Golden Glove, where grab samples from a quartz vein containing visible gold assayed from 2.16 to 338.08 g/t Au (see news release dated October 21, 2021), is a prime target and will be drilled following receipt of soil samples over the area. These are expected in the first quarter. Numerous other targets developing along the Appleton Fault Zone (see Figure 1) will be systematically tested along the entire 12km strike length during the increased program.
    “We continue to be excited by the prospectivity of the Appleton Fault Zone at Kingsway and that was a key factor in deciding to increase the size of the drilling program. Not only do we expect to develop the targets we already have to the drilling stage, but we are also confident that we will uncover more as we continue to follow our exploration strategy proven over 18 months of work at Kingsway. With over $30 million in cash and no debt the Company is well capitalized for this planned increase,” said Roger Moss, President and CEO of Labrador Gold. “In addition to the outstanding assays from our drilling, we are still waiting for many soil and rock assays from the regional work carried out along the Appleton fault during 2021. We expect that some of these assays will enhance our current targets and perhaps hint at new ones that we can develop going forward.”

  • Wie muss man so ein "surface sample" eigentlich verstehen?



    Jetzt finde ich irgendwo einen klitzekleinen aber sehr hochgradigen Brocken... wie berechnen die da den Gehalt pro Tonne?



    Da muss ich ja nur den ganzen Dreck und wertloses Gestein entfernen und habe dann extreme grades?! :hae:



    Gibt es da eine Mindestmenge an Material die getestet wird?



    Hört sich ja für den Laien erstmal gut an, leider tut sich am Kurs schon länger wenig :/

  • Wie muss man so ein "surface sample" eigentlich verstehen?

    Das ist eine Wissenschaft für sich. Ich habe einmal versucht mich tiefer in die Materie einzuarbeiten, aber mein Wissen blieb eher oberflächlich und v. a. praxisfremd. Meine Geologenausbildung betrug ca. 20 Lektionen "Geologie und Plattentektonik" im Gymnasium.
    (Wir sind damals mit der Schulklasse in einem Car in die Alpen gefahren und jeder Schüler durfte mit einem Hämmerchen auf Gneis, Kalk und Granit rumklopfen. Das hatte mich nicht interessiert. Aber es gab natürlich auch kein Gold und Silber dort... :rolleyes: ).


    Zurück zum Thema: Es gibt verschiedene Sampling Methoden. Bei den Samples von Labrador handelt es sich um "Grab"-Samples. Die sind zwar zuverlässiger als "Chip"-Samples, aber weniger methodisch als "Bulk" oder "Channel" Samples. Sie geben eine Orientierung, sind aber nicht repräsentativ für die wahren Vorkommen.


    Labrador beschreibt in der Medienmitteilung oben, wie die Proben ausgewertet werden. Natürlich werden bei Grab Samples auch oder v. a. Proben mit sichtbarem Gold gesammelt. Ob die Geologen dann von so einem Stück dann noch Gesteinsteile abschlagen um den Goldanteil der Probe zu erhöhen? Möglich, sie würden ja aber v. a. sich selbst betrügen. (Labrador Gold habe ich nicht im Depot. Bisher war mir zuwenig Fleisch am Knochen. Auf New Foundland bin ich zurzeit in Sokoman, New Found Gold, Maritime und Marathon investiert).


    Goliath Resources hatte 2020 hervorragende Channel-Samples ausgewiesen. Ich war damals an ihnen dran, bin dann leider nicht eingestiegen, weil ich der Sache nicht traute und das Terrain sehr steil ist. Später haben aber die Bohrungen gute Resulate gefliefert und der Kurs verzehnfachte sich. Jetzt sind sie mir mit fast 100 Mio MC zu teuer. Seither habe ich ein Auge auf Channel Samples! 8o

    Und zum Abschluss ein Channel Sample von Goliath Resources 2020, denn ich leider nicht ernst nahm. Hier habe ich schon mal meinen Frust rausgelassen:

  • Nachtrag zum Sampling von Goliath Resources. Wenn wir uns das Terrain mit den steilen Felswänden anschauen, leuchtet ein, weshalb hier Channel Samples so aussagekräftit sind. Die Gesteinsschichten mit ihren Adern reichen aufgrund der Abbruchkanten bis an die Oberfläche. Es liegt ein schöner Querschnitt vor. Ob in diesem Gebirge aber wirtschaftlich abgebaut werden kann, stelle ich in Frage. Die Gebirgslage erinnert mich an Scottie Resources.
