New Carolin Gold Reports on Newly Discovered Gold Zone on the Ladner Gold Property

Monday, 26 August 2013 05:01 PM

Topic:

New Carolin Gold Corp. (TSX - V: LAD) is pleased to report results on a newly discovered carbonate alteration zone at its Ladner Gold Property near Hope in southwestern British Columbia.

Recent prospecting this year of a new alteration and mineralized zone located approximately 1200 metres northwest from the Idaho Zone on the access road to the McMaster Zone and approximately 450 metres west of the Montana Zone (see press release dated December 15, 2011) confirmed the mineralization intersected in drill holes BE-01 to BE-03. These holes were drilled to test a carbonate alteration zone in outcrop which had previously not been sampled.

Hole BE-01 returned 8.62 metres grading 1.40 g/t gold which includes a 2.44 metre interval grading 3.12 g/t gold. Hole BE-02 returned 5.79 metres grading 0.25 g/t gold. Hole BE-03 returned insignificant values as it did not intersect the mineralization because it was drilled below the mineralized zone. It is important to note that the top six metres of drill holes BE-01 and 02 were cased and no core was retrieved from the mineralized zone.

This new gold zone opens up a whole new area that may be contiguous with the gold mineralization intersected in the Idaho Zone (see press release dated August 15, 2013). This new gold zone will need additional follow-up drilling.

Calculated weighted averages of gold grades for hole BE 01 and 02 are presented in the following table. The true widths of these intersections are not known.
