As described in the Company's October 30, 2012 press release, the recent drilling at Trench 1-2 was designed to follow up on two previously identified shallow gold zones. The pattern of drilling was established to test for extensions of mineralization in all directions. As a result of this drilling to date, an area of 400 m by 400 m has been framed. Within this area, all mineralization is relatively flat-lying at a depth between surface and 16 m below surface.
The Company is also encouraged by intersections of 13.8 g/t in hole PD-12-41 and 15.8 g/t in hole PD-12-46, near the western and southeastern limits, respectively, of drilling to date. These intersections, as well as other intersections to the north, suggest that the identified shallow zone of gold mineralization is still open to expansion in all directions.
"These results, building upon past results, clearly indicate the potential for a surface mineable resource in the Trench 1-2 area." said Richard Murphy President and CEO of Ginguro. "A program of comprehensive infill drilling can now be considered, which will allow for a definitive resource calculation. As we have five areas similar to Trench 1-2 currently identified on the Pardo project, we are becoming increasingly more confident that a substantial gold resource will be established at Pardo."
A map detailing the 35 holes recently drilled at the Trench 1-2 zone can be found on the Company's web site at www.ginguro.com/projects_pardo.html.
