Two Types Of Deposits Identified At The Sonora Gold Project

VANCOUVER - Zanzibar Gold Inc. reported that field observations at the Sonora Gold project have identified two types of potential deposits: firstly, structurally controlled epithermal gold systems related to the NNW trending Mojave fault. Secondly, a potential for sediment replacement type deposits with IOCG (iron oxide copper gold) characteristics.

The Sonora Gold project represents a highly interesting and prospective project given its geological setting, the intensity and extent of its geological structures, and its similarity to nearby deposits in Northern Mexico and Southern Arizona. Greg Bronson, P.Geo., has prepared, reviewed, and approved the scientific and technical information.

The project is located within the Mojave-Sonora megashear, a district wide geological fault zone that consists of a series of left-lateral strike slip faults that trend NW-SE. The Mojave-Sonora megashear formed in the mid-to-late Jurassic and is mapped from the Mojave Desert in California, across Northern Mexico, to the Gulf of Mexico.
