Mandalay Resources reported results from recent exploration drilling at the Storheden gold deposit located some 600m north of the Björkdal gold mine. Highlighted assay results returned e.g. 70.2g/t Au over 0.45m (0.15m estimated true width) or 39.7g/t Au over 0.70m (0.45m estimated true width) in drill hole SH-06. Drilling confirmed the mineralization over a strike length of more than 1.6km and to a depth of approximately 200m. The mineralization is hosted in cm to dm thick, often sulfide phyric quartz veins and appears to be related to the rheological contact between the volcanics of the Skellefte group and the sediments of the overlying Vargfors Group.
