Story details

Goldstorm Metals released assays on 21 October from the first three holes at its wholly owned Crown gold-silver-copper property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle. Hole OR-26-03 averaged 0.39 grams per tonne gold equivalent (AuEq) over 407.55 metres, including 15 metres at 2.89 g/t AuEq. The first-phase program comprised seven holes totalling 4,155.5 metres; assays for the remaining four holes were pending.

The company’s AuEq calculation assumes 85% gold and silver recoveries based on work at nearby Treaty Creek; no metallurgical testing has been completed at Crown, so the equivalent values are not a statement of recoverable metal. The company also says true widths have not been determined and the mineralized body remains open in all directions. The results are early-stage exploration data.
