TORONTO / February 27,
2014 / ACCESSWIRE / Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc.
(TSX.V: LME; OTCQX: LMEFF) ("Laurion") is pleased
to announce the drill results of the first diamond drill holes
completed in 2014 on its Ishkoday Property located northeast of
Beardmore, Ontario.
The drill program was composed of a total of 533m of diamond
drilling completed in 4 holes. Two diamond drill holes followed up
on the high grade channel and grab samples of 15.00 g/t Au,
35.4 g/t Ag, 1.07% Zn and 0.41% Cu over 1m, 3.14 g/t Au, 23.2 g/t
Ag, 2.62% Zn, 0.20% Cu and 0.15% Pb over 3m, 10.20 g/t Au, 45.5 g/t
Ag, 22.30% Zn and 3.32% Pb (Grab) reported in a press
release in November 2013.
Laurion will be displaying the core from hole LME14-030 at their
booth 3025 at the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada
(“PDAC 2014”) Convention held in the South Building of the Metro
Convention Centre, 222 Bremner Blvd, Toronto, from Sunday March 1st
to Wednesday March 5th, 2014.
Holes LME14-030 and LME14-031 were collared to intersect geology
associated with the Loki/A-Zone mineralization reported in Laurion
drilling carried out in 2012, but 700m southwest of that drilling.
LME14-030 was collared on a folded structure in the Loki/A-Zone
trend geology that changes the strike of the stratigraphy from
north-west to due north, and it is 220m south of LME11-013 (3.10m @
3.22 g/t Au, 27.5 g/t Ag, 0.38% Cu, 5.63% Zn), which also occurs on
this structure. Assay results are as follows:
Drill hole LME14-030 had a planned depth of 100m. The hole ended
in mineralization at a down hole depth of 107m.
Drill Hole LME14-031 was collared 40m south of LME14-30 on the
same north trending structure. Assay results are as follows:
Two diamond drill holes followed up on the diamond drill program
executed in 2012 across 500 metres of stratigraphy on the
northeastern extension of the "A"-Zone on the Loki trend. The
precious metal rich Volcanic Massive Sulphide ("VMS") Loki trend
has a postulated 3,000m strike length. Assay results from these two
holes, LBX14-016 and LBX14-017 are still awaited.
All sampling from this diamond drill program was delivered by
GeoVector Management Inc. personnel to the Activation Laboratories
("Actlabs") facility in Thunder Bay and/or Geraldton. Actlabs is an
ISO/IEC 17025 accredited analytical laboratory. Analysis for gold
was by fire assay with AA finish, followed by fire assay with
gravimetric finish for samples over 3.0 g/t Au. Samples were also
treated with a multi-acid ICP process, and base metal values over
detection limit were treated to ore grade base metal assays.
Analytical accuracy and precision are monitored at the laboratory
by the analysis of reagent blanks, reference material and replicate
samples. Quality control is further assured by the use of
international and in-house standards. GeoVector also routinely
inserted blanks and certified standards into the sample stream in
order to independently assess analytical accuracy. All certified
standard assays were within acceptable limits.
