Vancouver, BC – Decade Resources Ltd. (“Decade” or the “Company”) announces that drilling has intersected multiple zones of semi-massive copper mineralization from 1 to 10 metres wide in a porphyry environment at the Company’s 100% owned Wedeene River property near Kitimat, British Columbia. To date, eight drill holes have been completed and strong chalcopyrite mineralization has been observed in five of the holes. Based on previous exploration of the property, chalcopyrite-gold mineralization appears to be associated with altered and silicified rocks within zones of disseminated pyrite and sericitic alteration. Preliminary prospecting in this area during 2009, resulted in partial sampling of an outcrop that yielded one metre of 8.32 g/t gold and 4.31% copper within a semi-massive chalcopyrite-pyrite zone. These pyritic zones which contain 5-7% pyrite and local chalcopyrite are associated with strong local “potassic” and pervasive “phyllic” alteration zones intruded by strongly epidote altered dykes. Pictures of the chalcopyrite mineralization can be viewed on the Company’s website.
Ed. Kruchkowski, P. Geo., a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, is in charge of the exploration program on behalf of the company. All samples are assayed by Assayers Canada of Vancouver, BC.
