Kemess drilling cuts wide intersects

Recent drilling on the South Kemess project in the Toodoggone region of north- central British Columbia has returned wide intercepts of copper- gold mineralization. El Condor Resources (VSE) and a unit of RTZ Corp. of London, England, have a 60/40 joint venture with the right to earn a 60% interest in the property from the current owners; St. Phillips Resources (VSE) as to 60% and Stork Ventures, a private company, which owns the balance.

The joint venture can earn the interest by spending $1.1 million over four years.

El Condor reports that the drilling has outlined an area of porphyry copper-gold mineralization covering 200×400 metres to an average depth of 137 metres.

In addition to the five holes drilled in the area, two holes from a diamond drilling program in 1984 have been re-assayed.

The company notes that the drilling has demonstrated that the mineralization is essentially continuous across the intercepts and that it is open both laterally and vertically.
