LA QUINTA FINDS 10 grams per tonne GOLD AT ITS EASTER PROJECT, NEVADA
La Quinta Resources Corp.'s trenching on its Easter project, Lincoln county, Nevada, on the West Vein target uncovered a sheared epithermal quartz vein, 22 feet (6.77 metres) thick that contained an average of 0.025 ounce per ton (0.85 gram per tonne) gold values where intersected. The vein includes two outer zones with thicknesses of five feet at 0.031 ounce per stone (1.54 metres at 1.07 grams per tonne) and two feet at 0.034 ounce per stone (0.62 metre at 1.15 grams per tonne). The trench was excavated along 190 feet (58.5 metres) following contour on a steep hillside, to intersect the projected strike of vein fragments found by reconnaissance sampling in 2010. Four additional zones of five feet thicknesses contained gold values of 0.010 to 0.023 ounce per stone, in silicified and clay-altered tuffs in the hanging wall of the West Vein. Preliminary metallurgical studies are planned for all intervals containing gold values greater than 0.01 ounce per stone. There are no previous records of metallurgical studies on mineralization from the West Vein area. La Quinta's contractor has now completed reclamation of this area, as well as reclamation of the 2010 drilling program area.
