Northern Lion Gold Corp.: Airborne Geophysical Survey Contracted for Cyprus

01.03.2011  |  Marketwire

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/01/11 -- Northern Lion Gold Corp. (the 'Company' or 'Northern Lion') (TSX VENTURE: NL)(FRANKFURT: N3E) wishes to announce that the Company has entered into a contract with Geotech Airborne Malta, Limited ('Geotech') to carry out a VTEM survey of the Company's western permits in the Republic of Cyprus.


Geotech will complete a helicopter borne VTEM time-domain survey over the permit areas totaling approximately 1,000 line kilometres. The Survey is expected to commence in the early spring of 2011.


The Geotech B-field Time Domain EM System is an industry leader in the field of airbone EM surveys and provides excellent depth penetration and spatial resolution of anomalies. In conjunction with the regional soil geochemical surveys and mapping programs that have been carried out over the western permits, the Company expects to identify additional drill targets upon completion of this work.


History


The history of mineral exploitation (copper, gold and other metals) on the island of Cyprus dates back to the Bronze Age, approximately 5,000 years ago. The Phoenicians were the first to process copper on the island, followed by the Romans and this activity has continued to the present day. The evidence of this long history of mining is readily observed in the abundant ancient surface and underground workings along with extensive slag heaps. Mineral exploration in the Republic of Cyprus has been at a very low level over the last few decades, and management believes that there is a high probability of additional massive sulphide bodies being present that did not outcrop, as nearly all of the known deposits did.


The metal deposits of Cyprus are dominantly copper-bearing volcanogenic hosted massive sulphide 'VHMS' deposits. These deposits are hosted within the pillow lava sequence of the Troodos Ophiolite Complex. The pillow lava sequence is divided into Upper and Lower Pillow Lavas, with the majority of massive sulphide bodies located along the contact between pillow lava sequences, and the remainder between the Lower Pillow Lavas and the Basal Group. All of the Company's applications overlie these important contacts. Gold mineralization associated with the massive sulphide ores has not historically been evaluated.


Quality Control and Assurance


The Company's field activities in Cyprus are under the direction of Jim Chapman, P.Geo. (BC), consultant to the Company and 'qualified person', as defined by National Instrument 43-101, who is responsible for the technical content of this news release.
