Taku Gold Corp. (the "Taku") (TSX VENTURE: TAK) is pleased to
announce results from a 996-sample, deep auger-type, soil
geochemical survey completed over the 75-claim (1553ha) Portland
property in late October 2010. The property is located at the
headwaters Portland and Gold Run creeks approximately 45km
southeast of Dawson City in the Klondike area of Yukon. Both creeks
have produced placer gold historically and placer mining is still
underway on Gold Run. The goal of the sampling was to identify
anomalous gold-in-soil trends that may be related to gold-bearing
structures similar to the Gold Run showing where Taku has obtained
spectacular gold values in trenches up to 455.76gpt Au (Taku Press
Release December 7, 2010).
Detailed soil sampling over the Gold Run showing shows a weak to
moderate but distinct, northwest-trending, linear gold-in-soil
anomaly at least 250m long and possibly up to 850m long. The
maximum soil value over the showing is 30.7ppb Au. Three similar
gold-in-soil anomalies have been identified elsewhere on the
property. The first is located approximately 1500m east of the Gold
Run showing. It is a weak to moderate, linear anomaly that shows a
similar northwest trend over a length of 900m with a maximum value
of 10.6ppb Au. The second is located approximately 800m west of the
Gold Run showing. It is a weak to moderate, linear anomaly that
shows a similar northwest trend over a length of 2400m with a
maximum value of 45.5ppb Au. The second is located approximately
1400m west of the Gold Run showing. It is a weak to moderate,
linear anomaly that shows a similar northwest trend over a length
of 800m with a maximum value of 14.2ppb Au.
"The gold-in-soil values are not that strong individually but
together they clearly define three new prospective gold trends.
More soil sampling and prospecting needs to be done next season in
order to see what may be causing these trends," comments Zak
Dingsdale, President.
All analytical work was completed at Acme Analytical
Laboratories Ltd. ("Acme") in Vancouver, British Columbia. Acme is
accredited under ISO 9001. Soil samples were prepared by drying and
sieving 100g to -80 mesh, and then analyzed for 36 elements
(including gold) by 15 gram Aqua Regia digestion, ICP-MS finish.
