Discussion of Results
The Company entered into an option agreement to earn a 70% interest in the Algun Dia epithermal vein prospect, which, in the opinion of Management, had significant upside potential within the down-dip and along-strike projection of very strong, and wide (up to and exceeding 10 meters true width) epithermal vein system for which copper-silver-gold values were sufficient to support historic, small scale mining. The first phase of exploration was to test the on-strike and down-dip extensions of the system with diamond drilling.
While relatively high-grade, multi-elemental assay results were encountered at shallow depths beneath the historic workings, deeper drilling, and drilling along strike, returned more sporadic mineralization, which assayed weaker values of all three metals. Silver, copper and less commonly, gold values are extremely anomalous over a widespread area, but discrete zones of potentially ore-grade material, which could eventually support a mining operation, are much more restricted.
Golden Fame CEO Graham ("Chip") Clark commented that "the Golden Fame technical team has carried out a very thorough test of the potential continuation of the exposed, near-surface mineralization. We are proud of the accomplishments we have made during the exploration drilling and interpretation process, discovering significant zones of highly-anomalous copper and silver mineralization within the area drilled. Unfortunately, the high variability in grade, lower tenor of mineralization, and lack of coherent structural control combine to make continued exploration a high-risk, and expensive undertaking. In order to protect the Company's treasury, and to allow our team to identify, explore and develop a lower risk, significant project for the benefit of our shareholders, we have decided to cease spending on the Algun Dia project and terminate the option agreement. Effective immediately we have withdrawn from the Algun Dia project."
Geochemical sample preparation and analyses of drill core were performed by ALS Chemex Laboratories located in Guadalajara, Mexico and North Vancouver. Strict sample handling and sample QAQC protocols have been implemented.
