Miranda Reports Drill Results at Pavo Real Project in Colombia

06.07.2012  |  Business Wire

Miranda Gold Corp. ('Miranda') (TSX-V: MAD) is pleased
to announce drill results from its Pavo Real project in Colombia.
Miranda′s funding partner Red Eagle Mining Corporation ('Red Eagle?)
(TSX-V: RD) drilled 11,150 ft (3,400 m) in nine holes in this initial
program.


Drilling was focused on determining structural controls to
mineralization, with targets including quartz veins and veinlet systems
in sedimentary host rocks and hydrothermal breccias. Ongoing exploration
work and these drill results will be used to design a follow-up drill
program.


The following table summarizes significant intercepts. Significant
intercepts are values of 0.010 oz Au/t (0.343 g Au/t) or better. True
widths are estimated to be 90% of the drill interval and vertical depths
are estimated to be 70% of the interval depths.

Miranda and Red Eagle are encouraged by the numerous anomalous
intercepts. This initial phase of drilling partially tested targets near
the La Cruzada adits, the Quebrada Virgen adit and a breccia on the west
side of the property. Yet to be drill tested is a target on the
southeast portion of the property where sandstone and limestone are in
contact with intrusive rocks. Red Eagle anticipates testing this area
for sediment-hosted disseminated mineralization once a drill permit is
issued.


All drill samples were collected with a diamond drill rig using
approximately 0.5 to 2 m sample intervals and following standard
industry practice. Acme Analytical Laboratories prepped samples in
Medellin, Colombia and assayed samples in Santiago, Chile. Gold values
were determined by fire assay of a 30 g charge with an AA finish, or if
over 10 g Au/t were re-assayed and completed with gravimetric finish.
QC/QA included the insertion and continual monitoring of numerous
standards and blanks on a regular basis, along with check assays
conducted at alternate accredited laboratories.

Project Details


Pavo Real lies within the department of Tolima 12.4 mi (20 km) south of
the city of Ibague and 27.9 mi (45 km) southeast of AngloGold Ashanti′s
La Colosa project. Pavo Real is a large project that covers
approximately 48.9 square km. Robust surface gold values are seen in
sedimentary rocks, dikes, veins and breccias. Strong radiometric
anomalies inferred as potassic alteration zones coincide with mapped
structures, historic workings and samples with anomalous gold. Of 1,040
samples taken on the property, 540 rock samples assayed over 0.003 oz
Au/t (0.1 g Au/t). Highlights of surface sampling include 135 ft of
0.043 oz Au/t (41 m of 1.47 g Au/t).


All data, disclosed in this press release, including analytical and test
data, have been reviewed and verified by Joseph Hebert, Vice President
of Exploration, C.P.G., B.Sc. Geology and Qualified Person as defined by
National Instrument 43-101.
