DIOS LATEST TILL SURVEY LIMITS AU33 MAIN
GOLD TRAIN
MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA - DIOS EXPLORATION is pleased to report
that the late fall heavy mineral survey (44 new samples) limit the up-ice
extent of the Eastmain-1 gold train, confirming sources on its diamond-gold
AU33 project, Opinaca-Eastmain 1 area, about 350
km northeast of Matagami, James Bay, Quebec. See
map: http://diosexplo.com/pdfs/DiosU33goldTRAIN2.pdf
Previous 2009 & 2010 summer programs had identified a
well-structured 3-5 km
by 15 km
gold glacial dispersal train (from which heavy mineral concentrates from 47
till samples averaged 0.48 g/t Au
near Eastmain-1) as well as kimberlite indicator minerals (kosmochlor,
fosterite olivine and G11 pyrope). The till gold train yielded 16 samples
(34%) over 0.5 g/t Au;
11 samples (23%) over 0.75 g/t
Au; and 7 samples (15%) over 1.0 g/t
Au including 1.085, 1.130, 1.255, 1.390, 1.600, 1.750, 2.090
g/t Au. The latest survey limits the up-ice extent of the Eastmain
1 gold train, helping better focus future exploration work on the tonalite
target (Malartic-type gold porphyry).
This same survey also confirms a 1-2
km by 6-7
km gold glacial dispersal train (12 samples) down-ice of
the Conductor and Fallara (volcanic hosted quartz veins with
disseminated sulfides) gold showings. Heavy mineral concentrates from this
dispersal train yielded 4 samples (25%) over 0.6 g/t
Au (0.666, 0.925, 1.035, 1.160 g/t
Au). The Conductor and Fallara gold showings
returned up to 37.3 g/t Au
and 9.9 g/t Au.
Other significant clusters of anomalous gold from heavy mineral
concentrates in till were also observed near Le Caron Lake (1.305 & 6.63 g/t
Au) and Tiki Lake (0.983 & 3.510 g/t
Au) within the AU33 property. The AU33 project is
composed of 1,351 map designated cells (cdc) for 708 sq. kilometers wholly
owned by DIOS.
