Connemara Mining Company Plc announced results at its 100%-owned Mine River gold project located in Wicklow and Wexford, south east Ireland. Three holes were drilled in December, one at the Tombreen target and two at Gibbet Hill. Assay results confirm 8 metres grading 4.53 g/t gold (Au) at Tombreen, including a 2 metre intersection grading 16.1 g/t Au. Mineralisation ranging from 0.17 g/t Au to 0.25 g/t Au over several intersections was confirmed in one of the holes at Gibbet Hill. In addition, prospecting activities have confirmed significant mineralisation in the area around Gibbet Hill, with surface samples reporting grades as high as 5.08 g/t Au. The 8m intersection from 74m grading at 4.53 g/t Au at Tombreen (17-TB-01) has demonstrated substantial mineralised thicknesses. The reported historical intersection at Tombreen was 50cm grading at 21.28 g/t Au from 70.7m (2558-3). The new intersection includes 2m from 78m at 16.1 g/t. Drilling at Gibbet Hill 5km to the south of Tombreen, demonstrated gold mineralisation in one of the holes. Further surface sampling has provided further data to support significant mineralisation in the target area. Detailed structural mapping was completed while drilling was underway and this data, along with all available geophysical and sampling data is now being reviewed. Three kilometres to the south east of Tombreen, historic drilling at Knocknalour included six holes with results including: 40cm grading at 19.9g/t Au from 96.0m (2554-2) and 30cm grading at 10.45g/t Au from 88.5m (2554-3). Connemara's geologists suspect some drilling may have terminated within mineralisation and, in light of the significant increase in the thickness of mineralisation confirmed at Tombreen, these results are being reviewed. It is possible that historic core may be available.
