13-12 - Cascabel Project Update
=======================================================================
Mount Pearl, NL, Canada: Cornerstone Capital Resources Inc.
("Cornerstone" or "the Company") (TSXV-CGP) (F-GWN) (B-GWN) (OTC-CTNXF)
today announces a further update on recent developments at the Cascabel
Project in northern Ecuador. SolGold Plc holds a 30% interest and can
earn up to 85% of Exploraciones Novomining S.A. ("ENSA"), the local
subsidiary of Cornerstone which holds the Cascabel concession. Please
see http://www.cornerstoneresources.com/i/pdf/NR13-12Figures.pdf.
Highlights:
- Receipt of final surface channel sample assay results at Alpala
Prospect.
Ministry of Environment progressing through the final stages of the
Environmental
- Permit or "EIA" (Estudio de Impacto Ambiental).
- Mobilization of drilling equipment and associated supplies to support
the Phase 1 drill program well advanced.
- 3D modelling of 4 other targets at Cascabel in preparation.
Receipt of Final Surface Channel Sample Assay Results at Alpala
Prospect
Additional assay results have been received from 67 individual channel
samples that were collected from three local areas at higher elevation
to the northeast, east and south-southeast of the mineralized
outcrops at Alpala (Figure 1). This final batch of assay results from
the recent phase of surface sampling at Alpala were from higher in the
silica-clay lithocap where copper and gold grades were expected
to be lower.
This most recent set of assay results further confirms the
SolGold/Cornerstone model, that copper and gold grades increase with
depth in the system. The previously sampled channels that lie at lower
elevation and closer to the dissected Alpala drainage are significantly
higher grade and are overlain by the lithocap. Planned drill holes 1
through to 4 will all be collared in the region of higher copper and
gold grades that occur closer to the Alpala drainage.
Status of Progress to Environmental Report
The Ministry of Environment is progressing through the final stages of
the Environmental Permit or "EIA" (Estudio de Impacto Ambiental). As
previously reported, the Final Report for the EIA was submitted to the
Ministry of Environment on May 31, 2013. Ministry of Environment
personnel have informed the Company that there are some minor issues
still to be addressed by the report. Cornerstone and SolGold have
engaged their environmental consultants, Cardno Latino America, to
assist with addressing these last remaining issues.
Mobilization and Preparation for the Phase 1 Drill Program at Cascabel
Mobilization is progressing for the Phase 1 drilling program, and it is
expected that mobilization of the drilling and other associated
equipment will be completed in mid-July.
3D Modeling on other Targets at Cascabel
As announced on May 1, 2013, 3D inversion modeling of helimagnetic data
from the Alpala region identified a magnetic protuberance (or
apophysis) that the Company believes may be associated with underlying
porphyry copper-gold mineralization (Figure 2). The next step
currently being undertaken by SolGold and Cornerstone is the
visualization of 3D magnetic inversion data over two additional
porphyry copper targets (Aguinaga and America-Tandayama) that lie
in the central and northern parts of the concession, and which are also
associated with coincident copper, gold and molybdenum anomalism in
soil samples.
The relationship of the Cascabel System to the regional Toachi Fault
(Figure 3) is considered very favorable for copper gold mineralized
porphyry system emplacement, as this fault controls the location of the
Junin copper porphyry deposit approximately 70 km south, southwest.
Assaying, Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QAQC)
Samples were delivered in sealed bags by Cornerstone employees to the
ACME preparation laboratory in Cuenca, Ecuador. Rock samples are
prepared (ACME code R200-250) and assayed by the ACME-Vancouver
laboratory (www.acmelab.com) for gold (ACME code G601, F.A., 30 g) and
multi-elements (ACME code 1E, 4 Acid digestion ICP-ES finish). All over
limits results for precious and base metals were systematically
re-assayed (ACME codes G6Gr and 7TD). Stream sediment samples are
prepared (ACME code SS80) and assayed for gold (ACME code G601, F.A.,
30 g) and multi-elements (ACME code 1EX, 4 acid digestion, ICP-MS
finish).
ACME is an ISO 9001:2008 qualified assayer that performs and makes
available internal assaying controls. Certified blanks and standards
are systematically inserted every 25 samples as part of Cornerstone's
QA/QC program.
