Channel Samples Include Three over 464g/t of Silver
TORONTO, Oct. 3, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - (TSXV: SSM) (BVL: SSM) Mr. Lorne Woods President of Sunset Cove reports the following assay results from the recently discovered MayLinn and MayLinn 1 veins. These two veins are in addition to the 13 veins and structures recently discovered in the Anomaly 2 sector of the Carolay property.
The sampling along these structures indicates the presence of widespread silver mineralization with some areas of very high grades. The May Linn vein yielded a best channel result of 473.8 g/t Ag over a width of 1.1 meters. The May Linn 1 vein yielded two high channel results, the first of 518.96 g/t Ag over a width of 0.77 m and the second of 464.5 g/t Ag over a width of 1.67 meters.
"The two MayLinn veins seem to have been fed from the Maria structure which has a North-South direction. Given their shape, the veins are likely either sills or mantos, said Mr. Woods."
Assay results received to date for the May Linn vein from a total of 68 samples from19 vertical channels in the structure returned an average of 29.33grams per tonne (g/t) silver (Ag) over an average width of 1.41 meters.
Assay results received for the MayLinn 1 vein from a total of 262 samples from 59 vertical channels in the structure returned an average of 23.15g/t Ag across an average width of 1.55 meters wide in the MayLinn 1 vein.
"The results we are talking about today are positive and contribute to our understanding of the Maria structure. The consistency of the grade and the width for both veins over a significant strike length are both encouraging," said Woods. "There are a few, very high grade results and we are looking at those areas right now hoping to improve our understanding of the structures and expand upon the high grade results."
The two veins are perpendicular to the Maria structure and are found to be parallel to each other. The MayLinn vein has an azimuth of 260° and a dip of 32° to the north. It is exposed at surface for 20 meters where the channel samples were taken. It is located above one of the many faults that cross the Maria structure. These faults have caused the Maria structure to resemble a staircase as it drops further into the gorge.
The MayLinn 1 vein has an azimuth of 64° and a dip of 34° southeast. It was found just below the lip of the drop-off in the Maria structure. The channel samples were collected over a strike length of 130 meters from both sides of the gorge. Please see attached graphics for more info. As reported on August 21, 2012, the surface exploration work has discovered some 13 new veins and structures in the Anomaly 2 sector of the property. The results of these discoveries will be announced over the coming weeks and as they proceed they are helping Sunset Cove to put together a better understanding of the geological structures on the property. Sunset Cove's management believes strongly that the results to date warrant aggressive exploration and the decision to proceed with further exploration on the property will return more positive results in the future.
