Renaissance Gold Inc. reported the results of the Phase one drilling program completed by its partner, Ramelius Resources Ltd. at the Jupiter Project in Nye County, Nevada. Ramelius completed a seven-hole reverse circulation drilling program, totaling 3, 920 feet (1,195 meters) representing a preliminary test of two target areas. Six of the seven holes were drilled in the NE Pediment Gravity Target, and one hole was drilled as a first test of the Eagle Target. Drilling on the NE Pediment Gravity Target was the focus of this first program and was designed to test the Tertiary-Paleozoic unconformity in the vicinity of a prominent NE structural trend interpreted from the gravity data. A northwest fence of six holes was completed on this target. Significant argillic alteration with up to 10% pyrite was observed in the Tertiary volcanic and volcaniclastic section in the top portion of these holes and jasperoidal silicification was consistently encountered at the Tertiary-Paleozoic unconformity. Anomalous gold mineralization was encountered in four of the six holes, hosted in high-angle structure and along the Tertiary-Paleozoic unconformity, with the best intercept of 9.14 meters grading 1.10 g Au/t in hole JURC001. One hole was drilled as a first pass test of the Eagle Target and did not encounter reportable gold mineralization.
