DIOS Hits Mineralized Zones in the 2 Drill Holes Completed on Attila, Eastern Part of K2 Gold Project, Quebec
17 December 2020 - 11:45PM
Dios Exploration Inc. (“Dios”) (TSX-V: DOS)
is pleased to report first ever exploratory drilling is completed
in Attila area with the two drill holes hitting mineralized zones
in this eastern part of
K2 project
, James Bay Eeyou
Istchee, Quebec, south-west of Azimut Exploration’s Patwon gold
discovery.
These two holes, totalling 492 m, were drilled on Attila-South
and Attila-North targets, composed of fractured silicified and
sericitized dacite injected by 1 to 7 percent
quartz-chlorite-pyrite stringers associated with widespread 1 to 3%
disseminated pyrite and traces of chalcopyrite over an area of 400
m x 500 m.
Targeting by drilling southward Attila-South and associated
gold-copper-zinc soil anomalies, hole nine cut a thick dacite
sequence hosting numerous mineralized intervals varying between 15
to 40 meters thick and bottomed down in mineralized sericitized
diorite with 1-5% disseminated pyrite for the last 13 m, still open
at depth at 312 m.
Testing northward the Attila-North target, hole ten hit a
similar dacite sequence with several mineralized intervals between
22 to 46 meters thick and also ended in chloritized and silicified
diorite with 1-3% disseminated pyrite for the last 7 m, still
mineralized at 180 m. Both mineralized Attila zones remain open,
warranting further drilling.
Let us recall ATTILA gold-copper-silver
prospect is hosted in a fractured rhyodacite dome overlying Kali
Porphyry to the south (chalcopyrite-rich stringer/stockwork over 75
m long and 5 to 15 m wide, up to 8.08 g/t gold,
96.7 g/t silver, 2.43% Cu). Some 100 m north, a several
meters sub-parallel horizon (Attila-N) extending over 50 m long
with narrow quartz-carbonate-pyrite veins returned five samples
greater than 1.0 g/t gold (up to 3.64 g/t Au & 26.7 g/t Ag)
(see previous releases).
Dios just completed its Fall 2020 helicopter-supported drill
program on wholly-owned K2. It comprised ten holes totalling 2509.4
meters on Wi-Target and Attila showings 7 km east. Some 1,395 split
core samples and 154 controls were recently sent to ALS-Global
laboratory in Val d’Or, Quebec and are awaiting to be assayed.
Further drilling is already planned for next quarters. Several
other areas of K2 gold property warrant further ground
investigations, prospecting and drilling. Technical content of this
