Scorpio Gold Reports Results from 2015 Expansion Drilling at the Bluelite Satellite Deposit, Mineral Ridge Project, Nevada

20.07.2015  |  Marketwire

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jul 20, 2015) - Scorpio Gold Corp. ("Scorpio Gold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SGN) reports additional results from the 2015 expansion drilling program at the Bluelite satellite deposit target area at its70% owned Mineral Ridge project, located in Nevada.

The 2015 expansion program at Bluelite includes infill, development and exploration drilling to expand and upgrade the current mineral reserve and resource base for the deposit and potentially extend life of mine.

All of the holes presented in Table 1 are step-out exploration holes drilled southeast of currently defined resources for the Bluelite deposit. Drilling continues to delineate mineralization that has now been outlined over a 300 meter wide band of semi-continuous mineralization extending southeast of the Bluelite deposit along the NW Brodie trend toward the Brodie deposit. Management believes that results received to date from the 2015 drilling program will potentially allow for defining a new resource in this area.

Pre-production development work at the Bluelite deposit is in progress with open pit production scheduled in Q3 2015.

Highlights from this latest phase of exploration drilling at the Bluelite deposit include:

  • MR151450: 2.03 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold over 6.10 meters
  • MR151511: 1.47 g/t gold over 7.62 meters
  • MR151512: 1.20 g/t gold over 13.72 meters
  • MR151517: 2.42 g/t gold over 15.24 meters
  • MR151518: 3.91 g/t gold over 6.10 meters
  • MR151520: 4.96 g/t gold over 7.62 meters
  • MR151535: 4.18 g/t gold over 9.14 meters
  • MR151538: 7.82 g/t gold over 3.05 meters

A drill hole location map is available at: DH Plan

All holes presented in Table 1 were completed by reverse circulation (RC) drilling. True width is estimated at 90-100% of downhole width. Analytical results were performed by American Assay Laboratory Inc. in Sparks, Nevada, an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited facility. External check assays to verify lab accuracy are routinely completed by ALS Chemex, an ISO 9001:2000 certified and ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited facility. Further details are presented in the Company's quality assurance and quality control program for the Mineral Ridge project available at: MR QAQC.
