Endurance Announces Near-Surface Drilling Results From Eagle Zone - Highlights Include 5.15 Gpt Gold Over 21.6 M And 6.51 Gpt Gold Over 14.0 M
Eighteen (18) gold-rich intercepts were returned from seven (7) of these drill holes, with multiple intercepts per hole. Complete assay results are summarized in Table 1.
Highlights include :
- Eagle Zone was intersected by five (5) diamond drill holes returning:
- DDH24-100: 5.15 grams per tonne ("gpt") gold over 21.6 m including 9.97 gpt gold over 5.9 m, DDH24-104: 6.51 gpt gold over 14.0 m including 36.3 gpt gold over 1.0 m, DDH24-095: 4.31 gpt gold over 7.1 m, DDH24-098: 6.20 gpt gold over 7.8 m including 10.70 gpt gold over 2.6 m, DDH24-101 : 4.61 gpt gold over 4.8 m and 3.51 gpt gold over 12.4 m.
- Crown Zone and Eagle/Crown Transition:
- Six (6) diamond drill holes intersected Crown Zone vein-style mineralization interpreted to be a steeper down dip extension of the shallower dipping Eagle Zone. Highlight results include: DDH24-095: 4.15 gpt gold over 7.5 m including 9.11 gpt gold over 1.2 m and 13.15 gpt gold over 1.4m, DDH24-098: 10.49 gpt gold over 2.4 m including 23.40 gpt gold over 0.9 m, DDH24-098: second intercept of 5.84 gpt gold over 8.1m, DDH24-100: 4.24 gpt gold over 1.3 m, DDH24-104: 5.32 gpt gold over 3.0 m including 16.75 gpt gold over 0.7m, DDH24-105: 4.08 gpt gold over 1.0 m, DDH24-107: 1.85 gpt gold over 6.3 m including 5.58 gpt gold over 0.6 m and 8.66 gpt gold over 0.6m.
- The Eagle Zone has now been intersected by 40 diamond drill holes over 550 m strike length with a weighted average grade of 4.70 gpt gold and average drill composite length of 15.7 m . The shallow-dipping mineralized structure is up to 150 m in horizontal width and all the drill intersections are within 100 m of surface
"These near-surface high quality diamond drill intersections at the northwest end of the Eagle Zone raises our confidence in the Eagle Zone geology and mineralization model, and the predictability of defining the high-grade near-surface mineralization. The Eagle Zone extends to surface for 550 meters of trend with all the excellent average width and grade drill intersections located within 100 m of surface." stated Robert T. Boyd, CEO of Endurance Gold Corporation. "We now interpret that the near surface Eagle Zone transitions into the steeper dipping, vein-related mineralization in the Crown Zone where mineralization is open to expansion at depth."
Figure 1 is a drill hole location map displaying simplified surface geology along the Royal Shear and showing the Eagle, Crown, Imperial and Diplomat mineralized zones. Assay results for the newly reported intervals from Eagle and Crown Zones are listed in Table 1. All results are reported as core length intervals. True composite widths are estimated at 70% to 100% of core length.
Northern Extent of Eagle - The 2024 drilling program was successful at defining the northern extent of the Eagle Zone with large diameter drill core. In this northern area the shallow-dipping Eagle Zone is approximately 80 m wide and is bounded to the west by a silicified and iron carbonate altered tectonic breccia related to the Royal Shear Fault. To the east, the Eagle Zone is bounded by basal chert and gabbro. This steeper-dipping eastern bounding structure exhibits wider mineralized breccia textures near surface (Eagle-style), and vein-controlled mineralization at depth (Crown-style). Figure 2 and Figure 3 illustrate the 2024 drill holes at the northern extent of Eagle in vertical cross sections #1 and #2.
Central Eagle - The shallow-dipping Eagle Zone continues to the south for approximately 550 m where it expands up to 150 m in horizontal width (see Figure 4 and Figure 5 ). In this central part of the Eagle Zone a second steeply dipping mineralized structure (Eagle South) develops along the footwall of the Royal Shear Fault where previously reported drilling has returned intersections such as 15.68 gpt gold over 2.8 m (DDH23-069) and 3.94 gpt gold over 7.2 m (DDH22-025). The eastern bounding structure continues along the 500 m strike length of the Eagle Zone with vein-style mineralization such as 7.91 gpt gold over 3.7 m (DDH23-070) and 5.71 gpt gold over 5.6 m (DDH21-021).
