GOLDEYE EXPLORATIONS LIMITED FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TSX Venture Exchange Symbol GGY
Toronto, Canada, February 27, 2014 – Goldeye Explorations Limited (TSX VENTURE:GGY) is pleased to provide an update on progress at its Weebigee Project near Sandy Lake, Northwestern Ontario. Favourable winter conditions have allowed Goldeye to near completion of the initial drill program at Weebigee well before break-up conditions become a factor.
Drilling commenced on February 8 and as of February 25, 18 holes have been completed totalling 1,530 metres. Goldeye anticipates that 4 additional holes will be completed by Sunday March 2 bringing the total metres drilled to 1,900. Drilling has focused along a broad structural corridor that hosts the Knoll, Bernadette and RvG4 showings. Fine visible gold has been identified in 50% of the holes drilled to date.
Drill core from approximately 50% of the holes has been processed at the core facility in Sandy Lake and sent to Activation Laboratories in Thunder Bay. All assays are pending. Goldeye anticipates that core logging and sampling from the remaining holes will be completed in the next 2 weeks with a final compilation of drill results from the program being available by the end of March.
Blaine Webster, President and CEO of Goldeye, commented: “The drill program has thus far met our expectations. The identification of visible gold in drill core in each of the showing areas is very encouraging, as is the nature and extent of the quartz veining/alteration zones. Geological and structural controls on the gold-bearing system are now much clearer. We eagerly await the assays which will be forthcoming in the next few weeks to allow us to fully update our investors and partners on the progress Goldeye has made at Weebigee. As results are received, Goldeye expects to be able to decide whether to continue drilling before spring break-up. Goldeye would like to thank its contractors for their efforts in expediting all the stages of this program. Goldeye can now efficiently plan and execute its 2014 exploration efforts at Weebigee. Goldeye would also like to thank Sandy Lake First Nation for its ongoing support.”
The contents of this news release have been reviewed and approved by David Jamieson, P.Geo., Technical Advisor for Goldeye, and Blaine Webster, President and CEO of Goldeye, both of whom are qualified persons as defined in NI 43-101.
Goldeye will be exhibiting at PDAC on Sunday March 2 and Monday March 3 at Booth #2405A in the Investors Exchange, and will have core on display.
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
Blaine Webster, P.Geo., President and CEO
