Bear Lake Gold Announces New Drilling Results at Larder Lake
Further Wide Mineralized Zones Intersected at Fernland and Cheminis
LONGUEUIL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Nov. 12, 2012) - Bear Lake Gold Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BLG) is pleased to announce results for 14 more holes of the drilling program conducted by Gold Fields Abitibi Corporation, a 100% subsidiary of Gold Fields Limited ("Gold Fields"), at the Company's Larder Lake gold project. The project is located on the prolific Cadillac-Larder Lake Break in northeastern Ontario.
Highlights
-- Hole 118 intersected 22 meters grading 1.52 g/t gold
-- Hole 124 intersected 12 meters grading 2.50 g/t gold
-- Hole 126 intersected 1 meter grading 17.40 g/t gold.
Gold Fields' initial drilling program focused on the Fernland and Cheminis zones to investigate the potential for lower grade, but wider mineralization. At the beginning of November, 36 holes totaling 15,280 meters have been drilled. The Company is reporting the results of 14 new holes drilled over approximately 1 km strike length investigating the Fernland zone and the carbonate mineralization north of the Cheminis zone (see Table 1 below.) The latest results indicate the presence of lower grade, yet wider mineralization intermixed with higher grade lenses within the Fernland zone and extending towards the Cheminis zone. All holes so far have intersected various degrees of mineralization and additional drilling will be required to fully assess the potential of the area.
