Evolving Gold is focused on exploring its significant discovery at Rattlesnake Hills, Wyoming, an alkalic gold system, similar to the Cripple Creek gold district in Colorado, and on gold properties adjacent to the Carlin district of Nevada.
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 4, 2013) - Evolving Gold Corp. (TSX:EVG) (OTCQX:EVOGF) (FRANKFURT:EV7) (the "Company") is pleased to announce gold assay results for drill hole CAR-021.2, a wedge hole from CAR-021, drilled to the southeast. This drill hole has continued to expand the length of the high grade Arch Zone to the southeast. Drill hole CAR-021.2 intersected multiple intervals of high grade gold: 7.0 meters at 7.87 grams per tonne (gpt) gold that includes 0.9 meters at 17.66 gpt gold, 0.4 meters at 18.92 gpt gold, and 1.5 meters at 11.32 gpt gold, followed by 1.5 meters at 20.59 gpt gold, and followed by 2.7 meters at 14.62 gpt gold.
"This drilling continues to expand the area of high grade gold mineralization at the Arch Zone on our Carlin project in Nevada," comments R. Bruce Duncan, CEO of Evolving Gold. "The high grade gold intersections occur over a greater down hole thickness in drill hole CAR-021.2 than in any of the other nearby drill holes to the northwest. Our geologists interpret this to suggest the potential for proximity to an ore-controlling structure or feeder zone for the high grade gold mineralization as we continue to explore to the southeast. We are extremely pleased that our recent drilling intersected more high grade gold and that it continues to extend and expand the high grade gold mineralization we previously intersected in our drilling on the Arch Zone on our Carlin project."
At this stage of exploration, true thickness of intersections is not precisely known. SGS Canada Inc. and Inspectorate America are utilized by the Company for assaying. All gold assays are completed utilizing standard fire assay techniques, using a 30 gram charge. Over limits are completed using a gravimetric finish. All reported intervals are assayed using the same techniques with blank and standard inserts at the secondary lab upon completion to meet internal and 43-101 QA/QC standards. All reported gold assay averages are weighted averages, weighting each assay by the length of the core interval for that assay. All assay intervals are included in the average, with no bottom cut-off.
