Radisson announces 5.42 g/t Gold over 15.30 m and 22.96 g/t Gold over 2.40 m, 40 metres west of High-Grade Intercepts recently published in 36E zone; O’Brien project, Cadillac Break

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec: Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (“Radisson” or the “Company“) today announced significant high-grade Gold intercepts in 36E zone of the O’Brien gold project, located along the Larder-Lake-Cadillac Break halfway between Rouyn-Noranda and Val-d’Or in Quebec, Canada. (See figure 1)

Press release highlights:

  • The newly reported intercepts occurred in the 36E zone:
  • Assays are currently pending from approximately 3,850 m of drilling
    • 8 drill holes in the F Zone, located west of current resources
  • With the second portion of the 2018 drilling campaign now completed, a complete review of litho-structural model is underway for the O’Brien project.

 

“We’re excited by these high-grade gold intercepts, which occurred 180 metres below the projected bulk sample area. These results demonstrate the strong continuity of gold mineralization in the enrichment vector defined in the heart of the O’Brien deposit. In light of recent drill results, a structural reinterpretation is underway for the project as a whole. According to the geological team, structurally controlled faults, possibly conjugated, could control high-grade gold mineralization. Over the next weeks, we will obtain the results from this proposed model”, commented Mario Bouchard, President and CEO.

Results are presented as down hole width; true widths are estimated between 55 to 70% of down-hole thickness.

All drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d’Or, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 5 g/t were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Samples containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials and blank samples were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.
