"The extremely high grades of gold from surface samples along with
existing geophysical targets will guide the Company's upcoming drill
program, scheduled for early November. Drilling will attempt to
identify gold mineralization and controlling structures at depth."
comments Company President, Richard Hughes.
Recent stripping and trenching programs have exposed a series of
narrow, parallel quartz veins hosted within granodiorite part of the
Horwood Peninsula Pluton (HPP) proximal to a granodiorite mafic
metavolcanic contact. High-grade showings have been discovered along
this contact as well as within the granodiorite.
The quartz veins are described as shallow northwest dipping quartz
veins with pyrite and carbonate alteration up to 0.5 meters in width
and trending 060 degrees. Previous RHB grab samples returned grades of
75.0 g/t Au, 60.68 g/t Au, 57.1 g/t Au, 48.3 g/t Au and 43.3 g/t Au.
Amador's exploration team is currently compiling geological and
geophysical data on the Horwood project to select additional drill
targets.
The Horwood Project is located approximately 60 km southwest of recent
gold discoveries made by Lakeshore Gold Corp. and West Timmins Mining
Inc.
