Positive Drilling Results At The Blue Sky Zone

 

VANCOUVER, BC - Triumph Gold Corp., reported positive results from drilling at the Blue Sky Zone. President, Tony Barresi said, “It is with great pleasure that we announce positive drill results from the Blue Sky Zone, the second of three areas tested for high-grade, gold-rich porphyry style mineralization during the 2019 field season. Earlier in the season, drilling at the WAu Breccia met success, intersecting two mineralized zones that combined to form a very good intersection of 601.80 meters averaging 1.1 g/t gold equivalent. That success now continues with another long and rich intersection, three hundred meters away, at the Blue Sky Zone. As we continue to intersect and improve our understanding of these high grade breccia bodies, we build capacity to discover more of them and enhance the outcome of incorporating them into a future resource model.”

Technical Highlights Include: Intersection of the Blue Sky Porphyry Breccia, beginning 70 meters closer to surface than anticipated, resulting in 304.39 meters (191.61 – 496.00m) of 0.64 (g/t) gold (Au), 5.9 g/t silver (Ag) and 0.23% copper (Cu), including: 219.39 meters (191.61 – 410.00m) of 0.84 g/t Au, 6.9 g/t Ag and 0.27% Cu; & With a higher grade included intercept: 51.17 meters* (270.00 – 321.17m) grading 1.43 g/t Au, 6.6 g/t Ag and 0.31% Cu.

The 2019 exploration program on Triumph Gold’s Freegold Mountain property is now complete, wrapping up a third consecutive year of aggressive and successful, discovery-driven exploration. Results to date, from the 2019 program, document continued exploration success with long intersections of gold-rich mineralization at both the WAu Breccia and the Blue Sky Porphyry Breccia in drill holes located approximately 300 meters apart.

The 2019 program included seven drill holes (5,557.26 meters) designed to test for a buried gold-copper porphyry system beneath the six kilometer long, Revenue-Nucleus soil and geophysical anomaly. Three targets, spanning 1.7 kilometer strike length were selected for drilling: the WAu Breccia, the Blue Sky Porphyry Breccia, and Big Red, a geophysical anomaly. Results are still pending for one drill hole at the WAu Breccia and two drill holes that tested Big Red; these data will be released as they are received and validated.

The Revenue-Nucleus area, which was the focus of the 2019 drill program, covers just a small portion of the 200 km2 Freegold Mountain Property. Other exploration on the same highly prolific property included trenching, mapping, and hyperspectral surveys at the Goldstar/Irene epithermal gold vein target, the previously undrilled but drill-ready Cabin porphyry system, and the Tinta polymetallic vein deposit. These results are pending and will be released.
