ELIZABETH DRILL PROGRAM COMPLETED
The Board of Directors of J-Pacific Gold Inc. is pleased to announce that it has completed the exploration program on the Elizabeth Project in the Lillooet Mining Division of British Columbia. The program included geological mapping and soil sampling on two different grids, surface and underground rock sampling, and follow-up diamond drilling.
The diamond drilling program consisted of sixteen holes totaling 1650 metres (5,413 feet). The primary targets were the West and the Main Veins, both of which yielded high-grade gold values from previous surface and underground sampling. A secondary target, a newly discovered quartz stockwork zone, was also tested with diamond drilling and surface sampling.
The geochemical sampling was carried out over potential vein extensions and for the discovery of additional mineralized zones in the main area of mineralization, and also included sampling of the No. 9 Vein, which is located approximately 600 metres northwest of the West Vein. Underground sampling of the West Vein in the upper adit was conducted to confirm previous sampling by Blackdome Mining Corp. All samples were submitted to ALS Chemex of North Vancouver for gold and multi-element ICP analysis; results are pending.
J-Pacific also carried out initial work at the new Blackdome South Project. The program included synthesis and review of historic data; ground location of previous work; and aerial reconnaissance to determine access, logistics and overview the general geological setting of this large claim block. A 2.8 kilometre baseline was established to provide control for future exploration grids, and it was soil sampled at 100 metre intervals to provide initial geochemical information.
The above exploration programs were conducted under the supervision of Geoquest Consulting of Vernon, British Columbia.
