High-grade gold results at Quicksilver

Riversgold Limited (ASX:RGL) has discovered high-grade gold in rock chip assay grading to an average 8 g/t gold at Quicksilver Gold prospect located in Tintina Gold Belt in southwest Alaska, USA.

On 27 September 2018, gold exploration company Riversgold Limited announced the return of high-grade gold results derived from several outcropping sulphide veins at the 100% Quicksilver deposit. It has also outlined a new 600 metres long soil anomaly of gold-silver-arsenic-antimony which is around 1.5km northeast of the main Quicksilver target.

The results pertain to the rock chip sampling undertaken in July and August 2018 which when combined with historical sampling result into 1km x 0.5km of high-grade gold mineralization area associated with multiple sulphide veins at Quicksilver, Alaska.

The gold assays have outlined massive arsenopyrite vein, returning high-grade gold at a grade range of 5.85g/t Au to 10.4g/t Au over 150m of strike. A parallel vein, about 35m to the east returned 7.86g/t gold result whilst a newly identified outcropping vein 300m to the east along the ridgeline returned a result of 8.99g/t gold.

The exploration work by Riversgold is currently focused on large intrusion-related gold (IRG) deposit. The company has recently finished its first Alaskan field season which included geochemical and geophysical surveys and a limited diamond drilling testing at Luna and Quicksilver.

Riversgold’s Managing Director, Mr Allan Kelly stated that the company has now successfully proven the existence of multiple sulphide veins at the main Quicksilver target, returning high-grade gold results. [optin-monster-shortcode id="wxhmli4jjedneglg1trq"]
