VANCOUVER, Oct 7 /CNW/ --
VANCOUVER, Oct 7 /CNW/ - Brazilian Gold Corporation ("Brazilian Gold" or
"Company") is pleased to announce they have received final approval from
the stock exchange for the Option Agreement ("Agreement") to acquire a
100% interest in the São Jorge Gold Project ("Project") from Talon
Metals Corp. ("Talon"). As previously announced on June 15, 2010 (BGC
News Release 7/10), the terms of the Agreement require Brazilian Gold to
pay Talon a total of C$2,250,000 in cash and C$2,250,000 in shares in
staged payments over a 1.5 year period and granting Talon a 1% net
smelter royalty.
The Project is located approximately 238 kilometers southeast of
Itaituba and occurs within the eastern part of the Tapajos Mineral
Province (TMP), which was the focus of a gold rush from the 1970's
through the 1990's, where unofficial gold production primarily from
alluvial deposits is estimated to be 30 million ounces.
Brazilian Gold commissioned Coffey Mining to complete a review and
update of the NI43-101 Technical Report they completed for Talon in
2008. The report documents an indicated resource of 8,334,000 tonnes
grading 1.3 grams/tonne gold (343,000 ounces) and an inferred resource
of 12,576,000 tonnes grading 1.1 grams/tonne gold (458,000 ounces) using
a 0.5 gram/tonne cut-off grade; the report can be retrieved from the Company's
website or from SEDAR. The deposit is open down dip and along strike
to the southeast.
Brazilian Gold plans an extensive exploration program that will focus on
expanding the existing resource at the São Jorge deposit as well as
exploring for potential new deposits on the surrounding, largely
unexplored property. The Phase 1 diamond drilling program will consist
of 5,000 metres and is expected to start sometime in the fourth quarter
of 2010. Concurrent with this program, the Company will complete
reconnaissance mapping, geochemistry and geophysics (induce
polarization) over the rest of the property. Targets identified from
this work will be drilled in 2011.
Garnet Dawson, M.Sc., P.Geo. (British Columbia), Vice President,
Exploration for the Company and a Qualified Person, as defined by
National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical
disclosure contained in this News Release.
