In other news, Xmet Inc. announced that additional trenching and channel sampling on the Duquesne West property returned up to 12.25 g/t Au over 1.3 m and 3.18 g/t Au over 4.2 m and confirmed Xmet’s expectations regarding continuity of the mineralization. Xmet is presently undertaking a 7,000 meter drill program on the property including shallow detailed drilling of the Shaft Gold Zone. (See Xmet press release dated October 18, 2011).
Globex has recently acquired by staking 97 claims in Guyenne Township, Quebec covering an area of gold mineralization exposed in trenches and in historical drilling of up to 9.8 g/t Au over 1.5 m and 5.9 g/t Au over 6.2 m. Prospecting has started on the property.
Following the intersection of massive copper, zinc, silver and gold mineralization at Globex’s Tonnancour property (see press releases dated August 8 and 10, 2011), Globex staked additional claims, more than doubling the size of the property and covering extensions of the geology that enclose the mineralized zone and a number of isolated electromagnetic anomalies. We also have enlarged a number of other properties including our Fish Lake and Courville Gold packages, Duvan Copper property, Berrigan gold, zinc, silver property and added a significant number of claims in the area of our Eagle gold and Poirier base metal mines.
As regards our royalty interest in the Getty lead‐zinc deposit owned by Selwyn Resources Ltd. in Nova Scotia, it was announced on October 17, 2011 that a proposed senior bond financing was terminated. We expect this will result in a delay in the development of the Getty deposit and potential royalty payments.
At the Mooseland Gold Mine in Nova Scotia, NSGold Corp. continues to intersect good gold values of up to 8.99 g/t Au over 4.8 m, 13.73 g/t Au over 1.5 m, 107.0 g/t Au over 0.5 m (see NSGold press release dated October 18, 2011).
