Deepest Gold Zone Intersected to Date at Renforth's Wholly Owned New Alger Gold Property in Mine Vein #3
- Deepest gold mineralization drilled to date at New Alger in REN-20-40 which intersected 6.3m of 1.46 g/t Au in the #3 vein at a vertical depth of 410m
- Mine area veins exhibit high grade nugget effect again, with the most recent interval obtained of 32.33 g/t Au over 0.4m in REN-20-39
- Mine area veins also continue to display the "halo" effect unique to the mineralization at New Alger, where alteration with a generally lower grade of gold adds width to the zone, such as REN-20-39 where Vein #1 intersected 0.71 g/t Au over a width of 17.4m, including 3.5m within this interval which graded 1.23 g/t Au.
PICKERING, April 15, 2020 - Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE:RFR)(OTCPINK:RFHRF)(WKN:A2H9TN) ("Renforth" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from the final three holes drilled at New Alger in February/March 2020, each of which intersected gold as anticipated in the mine area veins. This successful campaign resulted in deeper pierce points than the bulk of the previous drilling at New Alger, extending the mine area veins down dip. The mine area veins are hosted within the Piché volcanics, on the south side of the Cadillac Break. The entire mineralized system, which strikes for approximately 1.4kms on the New Alger property, is open at depth. The Cadillac Mining Camp is regarded as "essentially unexplored beyond a depth of 400 metres. The gold potential of this considerable volume of rock remains to be confirmed", as published in The deep-seated gold potential of the Cadillac Mining Camp published in PRO 2005-02 by Géologie Quebec. This statement holds true for Renforth's New Alger property and provides management with focus.
Assay results for REN-20-39, REN-20-40 and REN-20-41 are presented below, the results for REN-20-38 have been released on Feb. 25, 2020 and are presented again below for reference, the four holes totaled 2052 metres of drilling.
