Consolidated Gold Hawk Resources Inc.: Additional Gold Zones Discovered on Barry-Souart Property.


MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 4, 1997--(Alberta Stock Exchange Alberta Stock Exchange

:CGK CGK Jakarta, Indonesia - Soekarno Hatta International (Airport Code; aka Cenkareng) .) Consolidated Gold Hawk Resources Inc. is pleased to announce that gold has been encountered in six of seven holes recently completed on its wholly owned Barry-Souart property, approximately 90 km east of Quevillon in the Abitibi region of Quebec.

The goal of the drill program was to test the continuity and establish the orientation of the "Bart" Zone which was first discovered with a diamond drill intersection of 6.0 g/t Au over 6.7 m announced on August 15, 1997. The latest drilling has proven that the gold mineralization Mineralization

- 23.8 g/t  Au over 4.4 m  (hole 9097-10, 170.4 - 174.8 m);
-  2.1 g/t  Au over 3.9 m  (hole 9097-11, 121.4 - 125.3 m).

The drilling also encountered a second set of zones that lie to the south, approximately 50 m into the hanging wall and parallel to the Bart Zone. The "Lisa" and "Homer" zones are spatially associated and occur on either side of a system of feldspar feldspar (fĕl`spär, fĕld`–) or felspar (fĕl`spär), an abundant group of rock-forming minerals which constitute 60% of the earth's crust.  porphyry Porphyry, Greek scholar

- 1.1 g/t Au over  1.1 m "Homer"      (9097-11, 87.8-88.9 m).

Finally, an entirely new zone was encountered 400 m south of the Bart, Lisa, and Homer area. The geophysical data suggests that this zone shares the same east-west orientation as the other zones. It consists of a fracture type quartz vein with visible gold:

- 11.0 g/t Au over 1.2 m (9097-12, 110.2-112.4 m). -0-

Gold values used in the weight average calculations were determined by the fire assay method using a one assay ton 1. A weight of 29.166 + grams used in assaying, for convenience. Since it bears the same relation to the milligram that a ton of 2000 avoirdupois pounds does to the troy ounce, the weight in milligrams of precious metal obtained from an assay ton of ore gives directly the number of  portion and checked by fire assay on a second one assay ton portion at Swastika swastika

The zones all remain open in every direction and the company is preparing a follow-up program consisting of detailed geophysics and diamond drilling Diamond Drilling is a highly specialized industry used for mineral exploration around the world.

The Barry-Souart property has been expanded by staking (89 claims) and option (45 claims) from the original 25 claims to a total of 159 claims (2544 ha). The additional claims are currently being evaluated for exploration.
