Sphere Resources Inc. announced that despite the unseasonably mild winter conditions, the company was able to complete most of its planned winter core drilling program on its contiguous Dome and McManus claim groups in the prolific Red Lake gold Camp of northwestern Ontario. This work consisted of two holes on the Dome claims and two holes on the McManus Patents. The optionee to these claims and patents is Duncan Park Holdings Corporation. The intent of the Dome drilling was to position the projected intersection of two geological structures interpreted to host gold systems within the Red Lake Gold camp. These structures are inferred from projections of the basic geologic framework adjacent to and under Red Lake that had been developed from government mapping and company reconnaissance mapping. Drilling on the McManus Patents was intended to test the northwest extension of the newly discovered McManus/Chukuni Mineralized Zone. The two Dome holes, drilled 1.6 km west of the McManus Gold system, confirmed the projection of contacts between the Howey Diorite on the south, a relatively thin (+/- 350 m) middle unit of iron-carbonate altered volcano-sedimentary rocks and an assemblage of mafic volcanic rocks on the north. Drilling has penetrated and positioned these contacts. The company believes that this structural contact zone may represent part of the northeast trending Flat Lake - Madsen /Goldcorp deformation zone proposed by the Ontario Geological Survey in the 1980's. Hole SD12-09 returned 0.34 g/t gold over a 3m core interval at 175m down-hole (146m vertical). The two holes on the McManus Patents were step-out holes drilled 150m and 300m west of the 2011 drilling on the westerly projection of the northwest trending McManus/Chukuni Mineralized Zone beneath Red Lake. These holes confirmed the continuation of the Zone and the presence of low grade gold mineralization, but did not encounter significant precious metal mineralization. Hole SM12-12 300m west intersected 0.288 g/t gold over 9.0m between 399.0-408.0m down-hole, a vertical depth of 297.5m. Assay intervals generally appear sub-vertical. True widths can be estimated at 0.6 X sample interval width.
