VANCOUVER, Nov. 24 /PRNewswire/ - MAX Resource Corp.
(TSX.V: MXR; OTCBB: MXROF; Frankfurt: M1D) has split and
assayed drill core from two holes recently drilled at its
wholly-owned Diamond Peak gold/silver/zinc project in
Nevada. One of these holes, DP-02, contained an
intercept of 0.588 g/t gold over 7.62 meters (25 feet)
beginning at 155 feet, inclusive of a higher grade zone of 1.359
g/t gold over 1.52 meters (5 feet). Hole DP-02 was a vertical
hole drilled at the same location as a 60 degree angle hole drilled
by MK Gold in 1999 that reported 2.08 g/t Au over 5 feet.
This zone has been targeted for follow-up drilling as soon as the
drill rig becomes available in early December.
In addition, an outcrop sample recently taken
from the silver zone in the southern portion of the property has
returned an assay grade of 53.5 g/t silver. This
silver zone was identified during extensive soil sampling conducted
in September 2010, with assay results
as high as 4.3 g/t and 1.9 g/t silver in soils
confirming the high silver zone and its continuation to the
east.
Additional soil sampling recently undertaken at
Diamond Peak has also identified a further zinc zone on the west
side of the northern part of the property that had not been
previously drilled or sampled. This zone contains a sample grading
648 ppm Zinc. Zinc geochemistry along the northeastern side
of the property remains open and contains values greater than 200
ppm Zn along 600 feet of strike length. This zone will be filled in
with more geochemistry to the south and east to close off the
mineralized system. All of these areas will be explored during the
upcoming drill program.
The Diamond Peak Property is located at the
southern end of the prolific Carlin
Trend of Nevada, which
contains numerous gold deposits. The property comprises 58
claims located 32 miles north of the town or Eureka, Nevada and the Archimedes gold deposit
owned by Barrick Gold Corporation. Strong surface mineralization
occurs in a 2 mile long band of silicified and intensely clay
altered rocks, 200 to 300 feet wide, on the hanging wall side of a
major north striking normal fault called the "West Fault". Drilling
conducted by MK Gold in 1999 intercepted 5 feet of 1.93 g/t
Au in hole DV 99-5, 5 feet of 2.08 g/t Au in hole DV
99-4 and 11.6 % of Zinc over 5 feet within 60 feet of
surface along the West Fault in the Chainman formation (hole DV
99-15).
Analysis was performed by Inspectorate America
Corp, an ISO certified facility in Sparks, Nevada, using fire assay and
multi-element (ICP-ES) techniques. MAX has put in place a
rigorous QA/QC program consistent with National Instrument 43-101
and best industry practice. The QA/QC program consists of a
careful chain of custody of samples from the field to the
laboratories, inclusion of standard and blank samples which were
submitted to the laboratory with each batch of samples, and a check
assay program on a proportion of sample pulps with a second
laboratory in progress. Results from the QA/QC program have to date
been satisfactory.
