VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug 26, 2015) - Brian Arkell, CEO and President of Caza Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "Caza") (TSX VENTURE:CZY)(FRANKFURT:CZ6), is pleased to announce commencement of the 2015 exploration programs on the Piedra Iman Project near Villa Nueva, and the Las Lajas Project near Tecolostote in Nicaragua. In addition, exploration work continues on the Los Andes Project near Boaco.
Caza's geologists believe the alteration and mineralization at Las Lajas may represent the upper reaches of a porphyry copper-gold system. The Company plans to do detailed outcrop mapping and sampling of exposed areas, along with expansion of the existing soil sampling grid to help define the extent of the system.
Los Andes Update
Samples from four Diamond drill holes from the San Francisco drilling are in process at the assay lab with results expected in the near future. At the Pedregal target, all fieldwork has been completed, and the Company has designed plans for a drilling program. Road construction is underway and the Company expects to commence drilling in September. In the meantime, field crews are working on a number of new prospects within the greater Los Andes District, including El Cacao and other targets in the north and central parts of the district.
Sampling, Analytical Methods, and QA/QC
Caza has a quality control and quality assurance program in place for all projects based on industry best-practice standards and guidelines. Surface samples are collected following established procedures and protocol under the supervision of Company geologists. Samples are bagged and labeled in the field, then transported to a secure storage area. Coarse, blind, blanks and blind commercial standard gold reference materials for analysis control are inserted in the sample stream. Samples in sealed bags are transported to the primary laboratory by Company or Inspectorate personnel. All samples were prepared at the Inspectorate prep facility in Managua, Nicaragua and analyzed at applicable Reno, Nevada or Vancouver, British Colombia analytical labs. Analyses are done following industry best-practice standards and guidelines and include multi-acid digestion followed by fire assay, gravimetric, AA, or ICP methods. Assay results along with blanks and standard reference material results are reviewed by Company personnel and found to be within acceptable ranges. Data is then imported directly into a secure database by a Company database specialist.
