Antler Gold Inc. announced the increase of strike length at the Alder Zone to 100 meters and apparent width as well as the discovery of four new gold occurrences at its Wilding Lake Gold Project in central Newfoundland as a result of its 2016 exploration campaign. Alder-Taz Zone: Trenching at the Alder showing has resulted in extending the strike length of this zone to 100 meters. The trenching has also shown the zone in the area of Trench 3-4 to be wider than previously thought and results from this section are pending. This increased width is in addition to the previously reported channel assays in Trench 1 extension of 5.99 g/t Au over 8.75 meters, 13.8 g/t Au over 4.0 meters, 6.0 g/t Au over 8.5 metres, and 42.3 g/t Au over 4.6 metres. Prospecting also resulted in the discovery of the Taz zone which is located 125 meters along strike to the southwest of Alder. The Taz vein has returned highlight channel assays of 21.8 g/t Au over 1.0 meters and 64.2 g/t Au over 0.8 meters. Visible gold was observed in both the Alder and Taz veins. Ground and wet conditions during work at Taz made exposing bedrock difficult and this area remains a high priority target for the 2017 field season. For additional trench and channel results from the AT zone. Cedar, Elm and Dogberry Zones (CE zone): Prospecting also resulted in the discovery of three new gold occurrences, the Cedar, Elm and Dogberry zones. Trenching was completed proximal to gold bearing quartz float within 1.5 kilometers of the AT zone. All three new veins are of similar tenor to Alder; structually-controlled, northeast-southwest striking and shallowly southeast-dipping. The veins are all hosted by strongly deformed and altered Rogerson Lake Conglomerate. Gold is typically associated with malachite-chalcopyrite and locally tourmaline. Visible gold has also been observed in the Elm and Dogberry veins.
