Steele Resources Corp. Cross Cuts Massive Structure at Mineral Hill Gold Mine
CAMERON PARK, Calif., Dec. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Steele Resources Corporation (the "Company") (OTCBB: SELR) is pleased to announce that it has advanced the primary development drift at the Mineral Hill Gold Project to a depth of 138 linear feet. The decline has cross cut the A&P Shear structure along a face of approximately 40 feet and SRC is currently mapping and sampling this face to ascertain whether viable mineral prospects occur in this zone. The development drift has not yet fully cross cut the structure. The current development plan dictates that, once the structure has been fully exposed, the development drift will turn westwards towards the A&P mine and known mineralization target.
CEO Scott Dockter stated, "We are very pleased with the progress we have made over the past year. Bringing this project from conception to this stage of development in under a year is a substantial accomplishment and we are happy to continue to develop this mine."
Dockter continued saying, "We are presently taking samples to test the potential for mineralization along this face. We are seeing positive indicators that confirm we are along the A&P shear as predicted and the focus of our effort is now to turn west and develop structural intersections where mineralized shoots are expressed on surface."
The A&P Shear structure hosted the historic A&P mine which produced 128,000 tons of ore between 1934 and 1941. This historic mining activity was focused on the lower grade oxide ore body which is fundamentally different than the higher grade sulfide material that the Company is currently targeting at the site. This high grade sulfide is exposed at surface and is believed to continue in an East/West down dip trend along the A&P Shear structure.
In addition to the development drift, the Company plans to conduct underground test drilling to better define the extent of mineralization along the existing structure.
