EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Nov 26, 2013) - Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GZD)(OTCQX:GZDIF)(FRANKFURT:G6H) ("Grizzly" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has received and posted its maiden independent technical report on its Greenwood Gold Project, located in southeastern British Columbia. The independent technical report (the "Report") was completed by Michael B. Dufresne (a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects), of APEX Geoscience Ltd. ("APEX") of Edmonton, Alberta and has been prepared in compliance with NI 43-101. The Report has been posted on Sedar and is available on the Company's website.
HIGHLIGHTS
The Company's Greenwood Gold Project covers over 90,000 hectares, and includes eight distinct Claim Groups hosting gold, silver and copper mineralization, together with other precious and base metals. Prior surface exploration has included extensive rock, stream and soil sampling totalling more than 10,000 samples together with extensive airborne and ground geophysical surveys across the Greenwood Project. The company has expended approximately $6.5 million on exploration with five separate drilling campaigns totalling 10,363 meters ("m") in 58 diamond drill holes at a number of targets on the Greenwood Project. It is predicted that there is the potential for mineral resources in several areas of focus within the Greenwood Project. Highlights of the 2008 to 2012 drilling are provided in Table 1 below.
Based upon the results of exploration to date, the Report recommends a phased follow-up exploration program of work within prioritized selected areas of the Greenwood Project. The Report recommends a first phase work program of approximately $837,500 to drill approximately 11 diamond drill holes totalling 2,550 m to test the Dayton claim group, the Ket 28 prospect, and the Motherlode claim group, as well as surface fieldwork at the Mt Attwood claim group. The Report recommends follow up drilling and fieldwork in second and third phase exploration programs to expand upon results obtained to date and new results from the recommended Phase 1, with costs for the second phase estimated at approximately $1.263 million, and for the third phase at $1.223 million.
FUTURE EXPLORATION
The Report identifies high priority drill targets at the Ket 28 prospect, located within the Rock Creek claim group of the Greenwood Project, at which historic drilling in 1994 intersected high grade gold with 52.19 grams per tonne of gold ("g/t Au") over 3.35 m core length. Drilling by Grizzly in 2009 and 2010 at the Ket 28 prospect following up the historic drilling in the mid 1990's yielded up to 2.77 g/t Au over 11 m core length and 8.75 g/t Au over 3 m with a higher grade zone of 11.90 g/t Au over 2 m core length (Table 1). Wider intervals of lower grade mineralization were intersected as well with 1.02 g/t Au over 13.5 m core length and 1.19 g/t Au over 10.35 m core length Table 1). The Company's exploration program, based on recommendations in the Report and currently being planned, will focus on the Ket 28 prospect where the gold mineralization is open along strike and to depth and requires further drill testing. The proposed 1,250 metre drill program will target the gold-prospective zone in the central portion of the Ket 28 prospect, with the intention of developing a maiden mineral resource estimate. The initial Ket 28 drill program is expected to cost approximately $350,000 and is subject to financing.
All of the mineral claims in the Rock Creek claim group are 80% owned by Grizzly and 20% owned by Mineworks Ventures Inc., a private corporation based in Vancouver, BC, as an interest carried to a production decision resulting from a feasibility study.
Grizzly CEO, Brian Testo, stated, "Our extensive land position on the Greenwood Property hosts numerous mineralized areas, which the new technical report has outlined. Our focus is to develop a high grade gold resource estimate that can lead to production potential. We believe the Ket 28 prospect has such potential, and this will be the first of several recommended stages of exploration to accomplish our goals in this prolific region of southeastern BC."
