Assay results continue to confirm significant gold province discovery

Silver rich systems herald gold rich targets at depth
D’Aguilar Gold is pleased to announce significant gold‐silver intersections at Crunchie Prospect in its large Rannes Gold Project, Central Queensland which extends over 200km and is held by wholly owned subsidiary Central Minerals Pty Ltd. D’Aguilar is drill‐testing advanced prospects and 30 holes have been drilled for 3590 metres. The first batch of assays have been received from eight holes at Crunchie, covering 884 drill‐metres. Key intercepts from Crunchie to date are:

Crunchie Prospect is one of several significant prospects including Kauffmans, Porcupine, Homestead and Crackling Rosie being drill tested in the 2008 drilling program, designed to identify initial inferred resources. Other prospects discovered over the last 12 months using magnetics, stream sediment and soil geochemistry surveys in 2008 are shown in Figures 1 to 3.
Results to date lead the Board to believe there is potential to host an extensive province of gold and silver mineralisation on the Rannes Project over a strike length of 160km on the eastern side of the Bowen Basin in Central Queensland. Mineralisation is interpreted to lie in the basal Bowen Basin sediments and volcanics, geologically younger than the Cracow Mine mineralisation which hosts in excess of 2 million ounces in resources and mined gold, some 120km to the south.

Trace and associated element geochemistry at Rannes is similar to the geochemical suite at the world famous Carlin trend in Nevada USA. Furthermore, the structural and other geologic characteristics confirm the similarity with the Carlin style mineralisation.
The mineralisation at Crunchie occurs in pyritic shear and breccia zones that dip gently within favourable calcareous sedimentary and tuff (volcanic ash) horizons. This means that most of the mineralisation is probably concealed beneath barren cap‐rocks – a similar setting to that at Carlin.
At Crunchie, the envelope of pyrite and host rock alteration trends north‐westerly for an unclosed 400m and is approximately 200m wide. Holes 29 and 30 at the north westerly extremity both encountered 70m thicknesses of pyrite host rocks underlying 35m of barren rock. Although assays for these holes have not yet been received, these holes demonstrate that the mineral system remains open to the north west. The implication of these dimensions is that the mineralisation at Crunchie is part of a much larger, shallowly buried system with very high potential for the discovery of a major gold and silver deposit.

Other Prospects in Rannes Gold Project
The Rannes Gold Project drilling program is continuing at the Kauffmans and Homestead prospects to the north east of Crunchie (see Figure 2), where the drilling has encountered similar material with strong pyrite and siliceous breccias. The extent of the mineralised envelope is currently larger than at Crunchie. Assays are expected in the coming weeks.
The current Rannes program follows a reconnaissance drilling program last year which returned:

Footnote ‐ Gold Equivalents (“Au Equivalent”) assumptions :
In most gold‐silver mines of this geological type, both gold and silver are recovered and sold. Gold is far more valuable per gram than silver but the two precious metals can be combined into a gold equivalent value “g/t Au Equivalent”. The assumptions used for this Au Equivalent calculation are:
| 1 troy ounce (oz) = |
1 troy ounce (oz) = |
31.103477 grams (gm) |
31.103477 grams (gm) |
Ratio Spot Prices at 24 October for comparison Ratio 74.5 76 US$9.70/oz 1 US$722.50/oz |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metal* | Prices (US$) 15‐Oct‐08 outlook |
Units | Price (US$) per gram (gm) |
Ratio |
| Ag Au |
$11 $836 |
/ troy ounce / troy ounce |
$0.354 / gm $26.88 / gm |
76 1 |
Where: Ag = Silver and Au = Gold (Note that gold and silver assays are expressed in grams per tonne of ore “g/t”)
In the Company’s opinion all elements included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered, approximately in the proportions of 85% to 95% for Ag, 90% to 95% for Au based on standard industry practice. Recoveries may change as testwork proceeds. On this basis, the formula used to calculate Au Equivalent is as follows (note no difference in relative recovery rates have been included in this calculation):
g/t Au Equivalent = g/t Au + g/t Ag / 76
