Sandspring Resources Ltd. announced further results from its 2011 expansion and infill-drilling program at the Toroparu Gold-Copper Deposit in the Republic of Guyana, South America.
Sandspring reports the identification of distinct higher grade mineralized lenses with an east-west orientation and 45 degree plunge to the west within the main east domain of the Toroparu Gold - Copper Deposit. Drill results from drill holes TPD 237 and 237B confirm the presence and continuity of elevated gold and copper grades identified by recent infill drilling and improved geologic modeling of the Toroparu Resource that is being conducted in preparation for a pre-feasibility engineering study by SRK Consulting (US) Inc. in Q1, 2012. Results from drill holes 237 and 237 B are the first results reported from a series of holes drilled both along strike and down plunge as well as holes drilled to cross-cut the mineralization, all specifically designed to confirm the extent and continuity of elevated grade of gold and copper along the orientation of these mineralized bodies. Additionally, the Company is reporting results from exploration to the northwest of the currently defined resource area in holes TPD 224, 226, 228, 230, 233, 236, exploration to the southeast of the resource area in drill holes TPD 231,232, and 235, step-out drill holes in 225, 227, 229, and 234, and in-fill holes in the main east domain drill holes TPD 237, and 237 B.
