Comaplex Minerals released the last of the results from the 2009 exploration program on the Meliadine West gold property near Rankin Inlet, Nunavut Territory, Canada. The property is owned 78% by Comaplex and 22% by Meliadine Resources Ltd. (a
private company owned 100% by Resource Capital Fund III L.P. of Denver). Highlights from holes in the Tiriganiaq deposit include 24.6 g/t gold over 10.3 meters in hole M09-850.
Comaplex Minerals announced diamond drilling on the Meliadine West property was completed on September 19 and the camp is expected to close for the season in early October. A total of 23,600m in 110 holes were drilled in 2009. With an original drill budget of 20,000m, the extra 3600m were used for infill testing of targets in the F Zone and Tiriganiaq gold deposits and for geotechnical work. Highlights from holes in the Tiriganiaq deposit include 12.2g/t gold over 13.2m in hole M09-830, 15.2g/t gold over 8.8m was found in hole M09-834 including 12.9g/t gold over 14.4m, in hole M09-836 intersected 16.1g/t gold over 4.5m and 28.5g/t gold over 2.6m in hole M09-805. Drilling in the Western Deeps portion of the Tiriganiaq gold deposit targeted and delineated gold mineralization in a number of different lodes. Infill of the 1255 lode continued; however, focused drilling of the 1153 lode in the deeper parts of the deposit outlined a continuous zone of gold enrichment over 800m in length
