Kesselrun Resources' Bluffpoint Project Gold Zone Extended Along Strike

Channel sample results of 5.02 g/t Au over 9.2 m
THUNDER BAY, ON, Oct. 18, 2012 /CNW/ - Kesselrun Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KES) ("Kesselrun") is pleased to announce further trench assay results from the ongoing surface exploration at its flagship Bluffpoint project ("Bluffpoint") in northwestern Ontario.
Highlights include:
  • 5.02 g/t Au over 9.2 m., including 28.68 g/t Au over 1.00 m.
  • 1.53 g/t Au over 4.0 m.
  • 0.43 g/t Au over 6.1 m.
These assay results include samples taken from a stripped area approximately 250 metres south along strike from the Homestake Zone (see news release dated September 10th, 2012).  Kesselrun's trenching program exposed 400 square metres of intensely altered granite similar to the Homestake Zone alteration.  These assay results have extended the Homestake Zone gold mineralization on surface to the south by 250 metres.  The surface expression of the gold mineralization is now known to have a strike length of over 700 metres and widths ranging from 100 to 150 metres and remains open in all directions.  Contiguous sampling lengths are dictated by the exposure of the rock available to sample and not by the width of the zone.
The goal of the surface exploration program is to follow up and expand on previous work to better define drill targets for a forthcoming drilling program this fall. Previous work by Homestake Canada Ltd. (now Barrick Gold Corporation) recognized the potential for the Bluffpoint project to host a large-tonnage granite hosted gold deposit.

Michael Thompson, P. Geo., President and CEO of Kesselrun stated, "With a strike length of over 700 metres and widths between 100 and 150 metres, the potential of this undrilled target continues to exceed expectations.  These new results confirm our hypothesis of a large gold mineralizing system with the potential to host a large tonnage granite hosted gold deposit."
Updated figures, including the trenching results, will be available on our website in the near future.  Our corporate presentation is available on our website http://kesselrunresources.com/investors/presentations/
Kesselrun's flagship Bluffpoint project consists of 103 mining claims covering 22,512 hectares in Northwest Ontario's Wabigoon Subprovince, host to several recent gold discoveries such as Osisko's (TSX: OSK) Hammond Reef Project and Rainy River's (TSX: RR) Rainy River Project. Accessible year round by a network of well-maintained logging roads, Bluffpoint offers low cost exploration in an emerging prolific gold district.
