Hanstone Gold (HANS) is releasing initial results from the bulk sampling program at its DOC Property.

The property is located in British Columbia’s Northern Triangle.

The Golden Triangle hosts three of Canada’s most significant mineral deposits.

Two one-ton bulk samples were taken from the property’s Q19 vein, and from the newly discovered TRJC vein in 2021. The samples were crushed and milled.

Samples collected from the Q19 vein averaged 19.35 grams of gold per tonne, 127 grams of silver per tonne and 465.40 parts per million (ppm) of copper.

Samples collected from the TRJC vein averaged 5.73 grams of gold per tonne, 89.18 grams of silver per tonne and 43,580 ppm of copper.

“The reported high grades and consistency of the bulk sample results are very encouraging – The newly discovered TRJC vein gives confidence that there is a high probability of discovering deep mineralized structures yet to be explored on both the Doc and Snip North Properties,” said President and CEO Ray Marks.

Both the TRJC and Q19 vein widths are approximately 2-metres wide on average, including alteration.

Current plans are to expand the exposure of the veins along strike and at depth in the 2022 field season.

Assay results from the last three and a half diamond drill holes remain outstanding from the 2021 drill program. Results are expected in the near future.

The company holds a 100-percent earn in option on the 1,704-hectare Doc Project.

Hanstone Gold is down 10.53 percent, trading at $0.17 at 11:04 a.m. EST.
