Silver Quest Announces 4.0 Metres Averaging 165.4 g/t Au in Step-Out Drilling at Davidson Gold Project, BC
June 27 2011 - 8:00AM
Marketwired
Silver Quest Resources (TSX VENTURE: SQI) ("Silver Quest" or "the
Company") is pleased to report drill results from 22 holes (BW 149
through BW 170) received from the ongoing 20,000 metre drill
campaign to expand the resources on the Davidson Gold Project, a
joint venture with New Gold Inc., which is the operator of the
joint venture. Silver Quest has a 25% interest in the joint
venture. The project is approximately 110 kilometres southwest of
Vanderhoof, BC.
Of particular significance, multiple high-grade intercepts were
returned in addition to thick sequences of bulk-tonnage gold
mineralization. Highlights include: four metres of 165.4
grams/tonne ("g/t") gold in hole BW 156 and one metre intercepts of
46.0 and 33.5 g/t gold in holes BW 158 and 162, respectively.
Multiple intercepts grading 5 g/t gold or better over widths of at
least one metre occurred in several holes.
Hole BW 156 is the easternmost drill hole completed to date, and
the deposit remains open to expansion to the north and east of this
hole.
The holes reported here include in-fill and step-out holes
drilled within and around the currently defined mineral resource on
the Davidson Gold Project claims. The 22 holes reported here are
holes 15 through 36 in the current drilling campaign. These results
demonstrate the continuity of mineralization of thick sequences of
bulk-tonnage mineralization to both the northwest and northeast of
the resource area, with good grades over considerable widths.
Highlights include:

New Gold has announced an increase in the drill program for its
Blackwater Project (the Davidson Gold Project is the northern
portion of the Blackwater Project) and plans to drill 40,000 to
50,000 metres in approximately 100 holes in the second half of
2011.
The following table provides assay information for the 22 holes
reported in this press release. Widths reported are drill widths,
true widths are unknown. Assays are uncut, length-weighted
averages.
