Lucky Minerals Updates Wayka Epithermal Gold Discovery With Geophysics
ACCESSWIRE
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE /
('
Lucky' or the '
Company') is pleased to announce it has continued work at the Wayka epithermal gold discovery at its 100% owned Fortuna Property ('Fortuna'). Fortuna comprises approximately 55,000 hectares in a known mineralized zone in southern Ecuador.
Lucky's CEO, Mr Francois Perron stated:
'Our recent Wayka discovery of mineralized vuggy silica hosted in volcanics at surface confirms we are in a high-sulfidation epithermal system. The geophysical data from El Buitre-Emma which revealed a magnetic low anomaly leading to the interpretation of a NNE structure has now been confirmed to coincide with the alteration at surface. The anomaly is presently shown to be at least 3 km long in a north-easterly direction and extends to the limit of the current data. Our teams are pursuing work in the field that will lead to a better understanding of this system both in terms of scale and alteration types which could allow to identify potential feeder zones. This exciting work will lead to drill targets that will be tested in the coming months.'
