Continuing to grow their business, Drake Gold has added 2 Silver properties to their portfolio. Here is some of the basic information on the 2 properties:
The Wolverine Prospect (4000+ acres) has been assayed in two main mineralized areas, vein 2, in the west mineralized area, assayed 914 gpt (grams per ton) silver and 0.34 gpt gold across 15cm. In the east mineralized area, a sample from a 20cm vein with arsenopyrite and pyrite assayed 12.1 gpt gold and 86.7 gpt silver respectively.
The LC2 - AG Prospect (1000+ acres) formally of the Newmont Mining Corporation has returned copper, silver, lead, and zinc results. The main vein, which strikes 029 degrees, dips 85 degreesW and plunges 55 degreesE, is 80m long. Assays from a trench on the vein assayed 9.6% copper, 10.6% lead, 11.2% zinc, 0.33% cadmium and 1,941 gpt silver (approx. 62 ounces per ton).
