Otis Gold Corp. announced assay results for seven additional holes from its 25-hole, 8,000-metre, 2017 Kilgore Project drill program. Bulk-tonnage intercepts of 24.4 metres (m) grading 4.33 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) in hole 17 OKC-373, 53.3 m grading 1.23 g/t Au in hole 17 OKC-375, and 100.2 m grading 0.74 g/t Au in hole 17-OKC 378 have been intersected. Core logging is now complete and assays from the final nine holes outstanding will be reported when available. The primary goal of the drill program was to follow-up on open-ended drilling at depth and laterally as infill on drill intercepts achieved in 2015 and 2016, primarily in the prospective Late Cretaceous Aspen Formation sedimentary host unit within and along the ‘Aspen Corridor’. Timberline Drilling of Hayden, Idaho performed all the drilling employing two Atlas Copco CS14 track-mounted core rigs. Holes 17 OKC-371 and 17 OKC-373 were drilled to test the south end of the Kilgore Deposit. As background, in a prior exploration program, Otis geologists sampled a historic dump of mixed rhyolite and Aspen sandstone from an adit that was driven into the Cabin Fault/rhyolite dome area at the southern end of the Deposit. From that field work conducted in 2008, grab sample K 08-01 assayed 44.4 g/t Au. To follow up on this sample result, holes 17 OKC-371 and 17 OKC-373, located on sections 11,400N and 11,300N, respectively, at the south end of the ‘Segment 1 Road,’ were drilled 100 feet apart and angled eastward across the Cabin Fault to test the fault and Aspen/rhyolite dome area for potential higher-grade mineralization. Hole 17 OKC-371 was extremely altered and silicified, but had no significant values of gold. However, hole 17 OKC-373, drilled 100-feet closer to the Cabin fault/rhyolite dome area and which was also extremely altered with quartz veining and intense brecciation, contains a high-grade intercept of 24.4 m at 4.33 g/t Au at the contact between the rhyolite dome and adjacent Aspen Formation. This intercept suggests that the contact between the rhyolite dome and Aspen Formation in the Cabin Fault area and beyond to the southeast, which remains largely untested, should now be considered a high priority exploration target for potential higher-grade mineralization. Holes OKC-375 and 17 OKC-378, located on sections 11,500N and 11,800N, respectively, were PQ-sized holes drilled to twin smaller HQ-sized holes previously drilled at the same sites. This drilling was performed to evaluate how gold grade and the distribution of gold may be a function of the volume of material being sampled, and whether larger sample sizes will produce higher gold grades that are potentially more representative of the underlying gold grades at Kilgore. Specifically, the unsplit 5-foot interval of PQ core has a volume that is 259% larger than the HQ core. In both cases, the PQ holes contain more gold than the split HQ holes. A comparison of gold grades from PQ and HQ twin holes for the same mineralized intervals shows that PQ hole 17 OKC-375 contains an average grade that is 262% greater than its HQ twin counterpart, hole 17 OKC-357 (53.3-m-thick intercept from 98.5 m to 151.8 m). Similarly, comparison of gold grades of PQ and HQ twins 17 OKC-378 and 16 OKC-326 for the same mineralized interval studied (100.2 m from 97.5 m to 197.7 m) shows a 42.3% increase in grade for the PQ hole compared with the HQ hole. It should be noted that the majority of historical exploration drilling at Kilgore completed by Otis and prior operators was completed with HQ and NQ (diameter 1.87") core, most of which was split for assay purposes.
