Significant Results of Historical Drilling on the Winnemucca Mountain Property |
|
Vancouver, British Columbia, June 20, 2005: Evolving Gold Corporation (CNQ:GOLD) announces, as a follow up to our news release of February 18, 2005, a list of the most significant, gold-anomalous intersections from previous drilling at their Winnemucca Mountain project. These data have been identified as part of a compilation of all available data on the property, which has seen limited exploration in the past. The Winnemucca Mountain property is located near the northern end of the highly-productive Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend in Humboldt County near Winnemucca, Nevada. The drilling was carried out by Santa Fe Pacific Mining during 1988 to 1990. No further drilling has been carried out on the property since that date. The following table is a summary of the most anomalous gold values encountered during the Santa Fe Pacific Mining drill campaign.
The historic drilling program targeted potential bulk tonnage, low-grade gold mineralization. In contrast, Evolving gold is targeting vein-hosted, higher-grade gold mineralization of the type that is known to be associated with large, bulk tonnage deposits, such as at the Sleeper deposit which is located approximately 30 kilometers to the northwest. At Winnemucca Mountain, the highest grade intersections, such as in SWM 014 and DWM 083 are associated with strong silicification and quart veining which forms the target for Evolving’s planned follow-up exploration. In compliance with NI 43-101, Lawrence A. Dick, Ph.D., P.Geo., is the Qualified Person responsible for the technical accuracy of this news release. Geochemical analyses were carried out by Chemex Labs Inc. in Sparks, Nevada. Insufficient information is available to determine true width of drill intercepts. An independent NI 43-101 compliant technical report has been submitted. On behalf of Evolving Gold Corporation Lawrence A. Dick, Ph.D., P.Geo. |
