Gold Summit Reports 84.3 g/t Gold in Sakoose Samples

Gold Summit (TSX VENTURE: GSM) (reports gold values ranging between
3.1 to 84.3 g/t gold in confirmation samples of quartz vein
material from the Sakoose Mine on the Tabour Lake property near
Dryden, Ontario. Three surface samples collected from spoil around
an old shaft and open-stope assayed 84.3, 13.0 and 7.1 g/t gold and
two, in-situ, rock samples from exposed quartz veining assayed 3.1
and 39.3 g/t gold.
The Sakoose Mine property was worked in the 1900's from 4 shafts
and 2 open stopes excavated along vein system over a strike length
of 280 m. The vein system occurs at a mafic volcanic/metasediment
contact, intruded by a felsic dike. Mine workings are located on
the limbs of a syncline plunging to the south-southwest where
emplacement of gold-bearing quartz veins was controlled by
oblique-slip shearing. The mineralized zone consists of quartz
veins which pinch and swell with thicknesses up to 6.5 m.
Associated minerals are pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, and
galena. Visible gold is present.
Geological data recovered from a number of sources, includes
results from ground magnetic, aeromagnetic, and VLF surveys, and
rocks and soil sampling. Details of previous drilling including
drill logs and assays as well as geological maps at various scales
are available. A summary of 20 drill holes by previous explorers,
prepared by the Ontario Department of Mines, shows gold assays
ranging between 0.62 g/t gold over 0.52 m to 9.3 g/t over 6.80m.
Other potentially economic widths and grades include 48.2 g/t gold
over 1.07 m and 146 g/t gold over 0.24m. All widths are
intersected, not true widths.
Gold Summit has now located drill core from the property from
holes completed in recent years that, apparently, was neither
logged nor assayed. That work is now planned and, together with
review of previous drill results, is expected to provide new drill
targets to extend known mineralization down a shallow WSW
plunge.
