Moneta Porcupine Mines reports new southwest zone results: 5.61 g/t over 23.89m including 7.42 g/t over 16.58m

 

 

 

 

 

Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX: ME / OTC: MPUCF / XETRA: MOP) ("Moneta") announces results from the ongoing 2010 drill program on the Southwest Zone, within the 100% owned Golden Highway Project ("GHP"), located along the prolific Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone, approximately 100km east of Timmins, Ontario.

Drill hole wedge MSW10-267C ("267C") intersected the 267 Zone mineralized corridor, returning 5.61 g/t Au over 23.89 metres, including two large and separate vein zones of 8.08 g/t Au over 7.75 metres and 10.55 g/t Au over 5.70 metres. Three drill holes have now intersected the 267 Zone completing a series of step-outs and establishing a consistent vein zone orientation with a north-northwesterly strike and steep southwesterly dip.

Ian C. Peres, President & CEO of Moneta, said, "The results for this second wedge and third drill intersection into the 267 Zone show a notable improvement in grade with continued strength in continuity over the mineralized intervals and corridor. We are particularly encouraged by the consistent 267 vein zone orientations now being targeted as we step up-dip, with follow-up drill wedging underway. After the first significant drill program in 13 years in 2010, these results are especially important as the 267 Zone is the largest and best mineralized quartz vein zone discovered so far in a very large untested area along the 12 km strike of the Golden Highway Project."

267C crossed the vein zone approximately 25 metres (82 feet) below drill hole wedge MSW10-267B ("267B"). The 267 Zone is located in a previously untested area 200 metres south, in the hanging wall, of the Southwest Zone's east-westerly trending iron formation. The gold mineralization is associated with a highly prospective iron carbonate (ankerite) alteration zone, typical of gold mineralization in major Abitibi gold camps including Timmins, Kirkland Lake and Red Lake.

The summary results from drill hole wedge 267C are as follows:

            Assay Reporting
            Diamond drill core logging and sampling follows general industry
practices whereby logged and sample marked core is sawn in half with one half
bagged and tagged for shipment to the assay laboratory and the remaining half
of the sawn core returned to the core box for storage and future reference.
Pulps and rejects are also stored.  Blanks and a range of standards are
inserted into the sample steam at regular intervals. Initial assays,
metallics, and routine duplicates are completed by Expert Laboratories. Up to
15% of the pulps are submitted to a second laboratory as duplicates and
checks. All laboratories used standard 30g fire assay techniques. Additional
core sampling and assaying, including second cuts and metallics, may be
completed at later dates. Intersections are reported using drilled widths
unless specified otherwise with assay values as simple averages of duplicates
and gravimetric results.
            About Moneta
