Creso Exploration Inc. Continues Geophysical Targeting and Drilling in the Shining Tree Area, NE Ontario
Currently, the Company is running a deeply penetrative Time Domain Surface IP Survey over the Minto and Tyranite properties with Insight Geophysics Inc., and has retained the services of Bill Doerner, a well respected international geophysicist, to merge this data with the helicopter data and previously obtained borehole survey data to better understand the structural controls and the distinctive physical characteristics of the gold deposits in the Shining Tree area.
The Company has also signed a contract with Diagnos Inc. (TSX-V: ADK) for the use of its CARDS system (Computer Aided Resources Detection System) which is used to identify areas with a high probability of containing a significant mineral deposit, in order to identify lateral extensions of the Minto property as well as to define the signatures of the other gold mineralization within the Survey area. The Company has 35 distinct gold occurrences (Reference attached: Map), as reported by the Ministry of Northern Development within its 280 square kilometers claim position and is using the Helicopter survey, the surface IP survey, the down-hole geophysical data, as well as the Diagnos CARDS system to prioritize prospective deep drill targets.
In addition, the Helicopter survey covers an area of 11.65 square kilometers in Morel Township where two historical shafts are located 2 kilometers apart with historical values ranging up to 5.5 grams per tonne of gold, 14% Copper, 600 grams per tonne of Silver and 0.89 % per tonne of Cobalt. As part of its mandate, Diagnos will help establish drilling priorities within the Morel property as well.
Drilling is ongoing on the Minto and Duggan properties, and a 1000-meter drill program was recently completed on the new Gold Corona JV with Platinex Inc. in the West Shining Tree area (Reference: press release dated October 22, 2010).
