TSX-V:
OOO) (
OTC: OGLDF) is pleased to
announce it has filed, on SEDAR, a technical report prepared in
accordance with National Instrument 43-101 on the Kilgore Project
in Clark County, Idaho. The technical report supports the
disclosure made by the Company in its news release dated August 14,
2018, titled, "Otis Increases Kilgore Indicated Gold Resource by
59%." There are no material differences from the mineral resources
contained in the technical report from those disclosed in the
August 14, 2018, news release.
The technical report, titled, "Independent
Technical Report and Resource Estimate for the Kilgore Project,
Clark County, Idaho, U.S.A.," is dated September 28, 2018, and has
an effective date of August 14, 2018. The Technical Report was
prepared by David Rowe, CPG, of Rowearth LLC, and Global Resource
Engineering, Ltd.
Highlights:
- At a gold price of US$1,300/oz and a cut-off of 0.006 ounces
per short ton gold (0.21 grams per metric tonne gold) the
pit-constrained Kilgore mineral resource contains:
- an Indicated Resource of 825,000 oz Au in 44.6 million
tonnes at an average grade of 0.58 g/t Au
- an Inferred Resource of 136,000 oz Au in 9.4 million
tonnes at a grade of 0.45 g/t Au
- The deposit is robust in respect of sensitivity to lower gold
prices down to $1,100 per ounce gold.
- The mineral resource estimate is supported by 323 drill holes
totaling 68,800 metres with an increased proportion of core holes
contributing to the resource.
- Otis has utilized modern 3D geologic modeling to constrain the
resource using both lithology and structure, which will be used as
both an exploration planning tool and for engineering
activities.
- Approximately 85% of the Indicated gold ounces (versus 64% as
estimated in the Otis news release dated August 14, 2018) are
contained within the Tertiary Volcanic and Intrusive host rocks.
Further, an estimated 15% of the Indicated gold ounces are
contained within the Tertiary Volcanic-Cretaceous Aspen Formation
sedimentary host rocks.
