POW Zone — Gold + Tungsten Potential
The POW Zone hosts intrusion-related gold system (IRGS) mineralization featuring skarn-style replacement and quartz-calcite stockwork veining. Diamond drilling in 2011 and 2012 returned strong gold intercepts that remain open in all directions. In 2014, tungsten-specific re-assays (WO₃) were performed on 230 drill core samples after visible scheelite was identified. Several high-grade tungsten intervals were returned, many of which are coincident with prior gold mineralization.
Selected 2014 Tungsten Re-Assay Highlights (POW Zone)
- Hole JN12016: 8.50 metres @ 0.39% WO₃ (including 1.00 metre @ 1.12% WO₃), coincident with prior gold mineralization of 5.60 metres @ 4.12 g/t Au
- Hole JN12013: 28.90 metres @ 0.10% WO₃ (starting near surface) plus 1.10 metres @ 1.15% WO₃, also carrying prior gold values of 7.40 metres @ 1.81 g/t Au
- Hole JN11010: 12.00 metres @ 0.25% WO₃
- Hole JN12019: 7.20 metres @ 0.27% WO₃
