Aurvista Gold Highlights Historic Gold Assay Intervals as Part of Detailed Targeting Work10.08.2016 | 14:00 Uhr | Marketwired
MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Aug 10, 2016) - Aurvista Gold Corporation ("Aurvista" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:AVA)(OTC PINK:ARVSF)(FRANKFURT:AV2) is pleased to highlight historic and more recent diamond drill hole results from the 40 plus years of exploration work at its Douay Gold Project ("Douay") in 15 major exploration programs. Douay is located 40 km SW of the Matagami Zinc Base Metal Camp and 150 km N of the Val-d'Or-Malartic Gold Camp (both in Quebec). As a number of new exploration projects in Quebec have been making headlines in recent months, Douay still remains one of the premier undeveloped gold projects in Quebec based on its past drilling results and Mineral Resources estimates*. Selective historic gold assay intervals from the higher gold grade zones at a cut-off grade at 5 g/t gold are outlined in the following table (refer below for a complete list of assay intervals, and refer to Tables 3 and 4):
Douay was initially explored from 1973 to 2010 for its higher grade gold potential with the discovery of 7 lenses ("Douay West", "10", "20", "531", "Central", "Main" and "NW"), followed by the 2005 discovery of a lower grade bulk gold porphyry (the "Main Porphyry"). Exploration of the "Main Porphyry" was revived by Aurvista during the Company's 2011 and 2012 drilling campaigns in light of the exploration and mining successes at the multi-million ounce Canadian-Malartic and Detour Lake bulk lower grade gold deposits. Drilling of the "Main Porphyry" led to the discovery of an additional higher grade lens, the "Adam-Porphyry" Zone, and a lower grade corridor ("South Porphyry"). It is important to remind shareholders, stakeholders and prospective investors of past exploration successes at Douay leading to the discovery of the 8 higher grade zones and the 2 lower grade corridors within a 10 km by 3 km wide segment (or 30 km2) of the 20 km trend of the Casa Berardi Deformation Zone (the "CBDZ") on Douay (refer to the Company news releases dated December 17, 2014). All of this work recently led Aurvista to define a sizeable Mineral Resource estimate*: representing 2.7 million tonnes at 2.76 g/t gold for 0.2 million ounces of gold in the Indicated category with an additional 115 million tonnes at 0.75 g/t gold for 2.8 million ounces of gold in the Inferred category (at a 0.3 g/t gold cut-off), or 2.5 million tonnes at 2.98 g/t gold for 0.2 million ounces of gold in the Indicated category with an additional 61.8 million tonnes at 1.06 g/t gold for 2.1 million ounces of gold in the Inferred category (at a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off grade). Aurvista remains committed to the continued exploration of Douay with its near term exploration objective of increasing the quantity and quality of mineral resources by extending the higher grade gold lenses or by defining new ones with gold grades similar to those intersected in the past (refer to the table above, and Tables 3 and 4.) Aurvista's management firmly believes:
Douay has seen 15 major exploration programs since 1973 (Table 1 can be accessed using the following link):
Diamond drilling for the entire project was mostly focused on the higher grade gold zones:
Aurvista is committed to the continued exploration of Douay The Company is planning a two-staged exploration campaign on the Project for the period June to December 2016 with the prime objective of determining the best of the 25 defined targets identified in 2014-2015 with a view of significantly increasing the current Mineral Resource estimates*. The First Stage campaign will complete the Priority Targeting Program (the "Program") in two areas where management is confident additional gold mineralization will be discovered, the first being in the 8 km by 3 km wide (at its longest and widest points) SE-tilted parallelogram-shaped polygon enclosing the Douay-Style Mineralization ("DSM") containing all the known gold zones ("Douay West", "10", "20", "531", "Central", "Main", "NW", "Adam-Porphyry", "Main Porphyry" and "South Porphyry") and current Mineral Resource estimates*. The second area is the 6 km by 1 km wide cluster of EM INPUT™ anomalies conductors running along the southwest boundary of the DSM that have affinities to Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide or VMS mineralization associated with gold. The Second Stage campaign will consist of a 4,000 meters of drilling to delineate additional gold and/or copper-gold mineralization on the best targets. The Summer Program will include:

Douay contained Mineral Resources estimates* of 2.7 million tonnes of Indicated Resources at 2.76 g/t gold for 238,000 ounces (above a 0.3 g/t gold cut-off grade) or 3,458,000 tonnes grading 2.98 g/t gold (at a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off grade) for 235,500 ounces. There were additional Inferred Resources of 115 million tonnes at 0.75 g/t gold for 2.75 million ounces (above a 0.3 g/t gold cut-off grade) or 62 million tonnes grading 1.06 g/t gold for 2.1 million ounces (above a 0.5 g/t cut-off grade).
