Sienna Resources (SIE) is pleased to announce results from its recent drill program at the Bleka Gold Project in Norway.
Seven drill holes were completed for a total of 1,474 meters. Six drill holes were designed to test extensions of the mineralized “Main Vein” at depth and along strike from the historic Bleka Mine (see Figure 1). A seventh hole targeted an outcropping quartz vein swarm located approximately one kilometre from the historic Bleka Mine (the Espelid target).
Sienna’s maiden drill program confirmed extensions of the vein systems along strike and at depth, and intersected multiple quartz veins with pervasive quartz-albite alteration halos and elevated gold and copper values.
Sienna’s drilling intersected the “Main Vein” in each of six drill holes, including intersections 147 meters below the historic workings (as seen in DH-BLE-01) and 40 meters further along strike of the workings (as seen in DH-BLE-05).
Notable intercepts include 1.7 g/t Au over 0.8 meters at a depth of 122.1 meters in DH-BLE 05, 0.21 g/t Au with 0.30% Cu over 0.15 meters at 60 meters depth in DH-BLE-02, and 0.25 g/t Au with 0.45% Cu over 0.28 meters at 24.1 meters depth in DH-BLE-03.
To its knowledge, Sienna is the first company to drill the project in the past 40-50 years. The company is now formulating a plan for the next phase of operations on the Bleka project.
Sienna Resources is focused on exploring for and developing high-grade deposits in politically stable, environmentally responsible and ethical mining jurisdictions.
Sienna’s projects include the Marathon North platinum-palladium property in Northern Ontario directly bordering Generation Mining Ltd.’s 7.1-million-ounce palladium-equivalent Marathon deposit.
