Pirate Gold Corp. announced positive exploration drill results from its Treasure Island Project in Newfoundland, focusing on the Moby Dick alteration zone. The company reported significant copper and gold mineralization within this advanced argillic system, which is characterized as a potential large-scale porphyry/epithermal deposit. Management stated that these preliminary findings suggest the existence of a major copper-gold district with extensive regional potential.

Key points

  • The Moby Dick alteration zone has been confirmed by drilling to measure 3,100m long, 850m wide, and reaching depths of 500m.
  • Drilling results indicate broad intervals of copper and gold mineralization consistent with a porphyry-epithermal system.
  • Specific drill holes intersected high grades, including 0.54% Cu eq over 180.8m (with 1.48% Cu eq over 49.4m).
  • The overall alteration and mineralization are believed to extend across an area of approximately 32 km by 8 km.
  • Company executives emphasized that the current results represent only a small fraction of what may be discovered.
