Aboronye Diamond Drill Results Confirm Ashanti-Style Gold Mineralization.MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 26, 1998--BIRIM GOLDFIELDS n. 1. A small slender woolly annual (Lasthenia chrysostoma) with very narrow opposite leaves and branches bearing solitary golden-yellow flower heads; it grows from Southwestern Oregon to Baja California and Arizona; - it is often cultivated.

Battle Mountain Gold has completed six diamond drill holes (933m) on the Aboronye gold prospect, situated 500 meters to the west of the Mampon gold deposit. The six holes were drilled along the north-south Aboronye structure, which lies at an angle to the main structural trend hosting the Mampon deposit.

This drilling program was implemented over a known, and previously tested, gold-bearing structure which, thus far, had been tested by soil geochemistry, rock chip sampling, trenching and diamond drilling along 800 meters of strike and to a vertical depth of 120 meters. Also, an induced polarization survey outlined a corresponding anomaly which extends both to the south and north of the area drilled. Essentially, the structure corresponds to a zone of strong deformation, intensive alteration with associated pyrite pyrite (pī`rīt) or iron pyrites (pīrī`tēz, pə–, pī`rīts), pale brass-yellow mineral, the bisulfide of iron, FeS2. , arsenopyrite arsenopyrite (är'sĭnōpī`rīt, ärsĕn`ō–) or mispickel (mĭs`pĭkəl), silver-white to steel-gray mineral with the metallic luster characteristic of a pyrite. and gold mineralization Mineralization The process by which the body uses minerals to build bone structure. Mentioned in: Rickets mineralization, n the bioprecipitation of an inorganic substance. . These associations are typical of the Mampon structure and other structures hosting economic mineralization on the Ashanti trend. Particularly, in hole BAD-7, the core is indistinguishable from well-mineralized intersections at the Mampon deposit. It is very interesting to note that the structure remains highly prospective for another 800 meters to the south of hole BAD-7, where lies the junction of the Aboronye and Mampon structures. Elsewhere on the property, diamond drilling of the 8600 Anomaly is nearing completion and results are pending. Also, Battle Mountain expects drilling on the Mampon deposit to resume shortly.
