March 1, 2011Â (Toronto, Ontario)Â - Brigadier Gold Limited (BRG-TSXV) is pleased
to announce that drilling has commenced on the Incamayo Project in Northwest
Argentina. Falcon Drilling (Barbados) Succursal Argentina ("Falcon") has been
contracted to diamond drill a minimum of 1600 meters and the mobilization of a
diamond drill rig to the property has been completed and drilling began today,
Tuesday, March 1, 2011.
The placement and intent of the drill locations is summarized below.
An initial two holes will test the northern end of known mineralization, with
one hole twinning CG97-07, the best of 9 holes drilled on the property in 1997
by Mansfield Minerals, and the second hole to aid in defining parameters to this
mineralization.
The 9 Mansfield drill holes were designed to test for economic grade
mineralization below several well mineralized sections encountered in trenches
excavated during the previous exploration season. CG97-07, the Mansfield
"discovery hole", as reported in a Mansfield November 14, 1997 news release
available on Sedar, ".. was a significant departure from the gold/silver
mineralization observed in the trenches that contains comparatively high silver
values with very low sulphides". It was also located 600 metres to the northeast
of other mineralized holes.
Check sampling in December by Brigadier confirmed high gold and silver values in
the Mansfield surface trenches, with values up to 147 grams per tonne gold and
690 grams per tonne silver with low sulphides.
The remaining drill holes will test mineralized zones to the southwest of the
Mansfield discovery hole. As noted in Brigadier's February 8, 2011 news release,
a review of the 1997 drill program determined that many of the drill holes were
oriented incorrectly to test the mineralized zones exposed at surface.
The results of the IP survey recently completed by Argali Geophysica of
Antofagasta, Chile on the Incamayo property, combined with an ongoing mapping
program, will allow more accurate placement of drill holes to test the
mineralized zones. Hole locations will be 'fine tuned' based on an
interpretation of the IP results by Fritz Geophysics of Fort Collins, Colorado.
The ongoing mapping program has also identified additional mineralization at
Incamayo, which results will also aid in defining drill hole locations.
Exploration at Incamayo is being conducted by personnel of Discovery Consultants
of Vernon, BC. Thomas H. Carpenter, PGeo, of Discovery is the QP responsible for
the preparation of this release.
