Greetings Ron
Havin a good summer? Appears that Vous et Moi are the only people left holding this stock :o). Here's a follow up to yesterdays news release.
Mongolia activities and plans International Pursuit Corporation IPJ Shares issued 23,673,172 Aug 13 close $1.50 Thu 14 Aug 97 News Release Mr Stephen Dattels reports The following is a report on the company's activities in Mongolia and its plans for additional work. Ulzit Gol (Blue Springs) Licence The Khukh Bulag prospect lies within the 409,800 hectare Ulzit Gol (Blue Springs) licence in west central Mongolia. As reported last month, Pursuit confirmed results from trenches with values ranging from 3.72 g/t gold over 10.0m to 28.6 g/t gold over 6m. Pursuit has now completed geophysical surveys (induced polarization and magnetics) over this mineralized horizon which has been traced for 2km. A strong 20 to 40m wide geophysical anomaly was identified coincident with the trenches and intensifying along strike to a structural hinge zone. This prospect is now considered a priority drill target and diamond drilling is planned to begin by late August or early September. A second gold prospect, Khar-at-uul, also lies within the Ulzit Gol licence. Khar-at-uul represents an extensive quartz stockwork system (2km x 500m) surrounded by an alteration zone containing sulphide mineralization and widespread gold values in outcrops. Recent rock chip sampling within the alteration zone has returned values up to 3.0 g/t gold. An operating gold placer deposit lies down-slope to the west. Pursuit recently completed geophysical surveys (induced polarization and magnetics) over the central zone. The results indicate two excellent targets both of which measure 400m to 600m long by 100m to 200m wide. Diamond drilling to test these zones is planned for mid-September. A third gold prospect within the Ulzit Gol licence, Bumbuger North, has recently been elevated to a priority target. This property has geologic similarities to some multi-million ounce gold deposits to the north in Russia. The Bumbuger North prospect is known as the "Hill of a Thousand Sheep" due to the multitude of quartz veins exposed along the valley wall. The host rocks are comprised of black slates (schists) cut by swarms of quartz veins and intruded by small diorite plugs and dykes. The area is on a major collision-subduction zone which divides the northern and southern megablocks of Mongolia. Grab samples from quartz veins have returned values as high as 17 g/t gold while the diorites contain up to 4 g/t gold. The area of interest extends for 12km. Detailed prospecting and geochemical sampling are under way by Pursuit geologists. Khargas Licence The Khargas licence lies in northwest Mongolia and totals 396,900 hectares in size. The priority target has been termed the Khargas Ophiolite where a trench completed by earlier workers returned 1.33 g/t gold over 15m. Geologic mapping by Pursuit has now identified this zone over a strike length of one kilometre. This zone, consisting of strong carbonate and sulphide mineralization, exceeds 100m in width as revealed in recent trenching by Pursuit. Trenching results are pending, and may be followed by geolophysical surveying. Other Licences Pursuit is continuing its evaluation of the Khan-uul prospect within the 400,000 hectare Khan-uul licence. On the Tsakhir Khudag licence (383,100 ha) a reconnaissance team is now completing a preliminary evaluation of a previously identified gold porphyry prospect. Pursuit's fifth licence, Erdene-dalai (393,800), will be evaluated later this season. (c) Copyright 1997 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com
