Fri Aug 1, 2008 Rainy River Resources Announces Drill Results Located 60 Metres West Southwest of Bayfield's Burns Block, Director Appointed
Vancouver, BC - Bayfield Ventures Corp. (TSX-V: BYV) (FWB: B4N) (the "Company") reports that Rainy River Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: RR) has announced drill results from hole NR08-258 located 60 metres west-southwest of the Burns Block owned by Bayfield Ventures and under an option agreement with Rainy River Resources.
Rainy River Resources is earning a 60% interest in Bayfield's "Burns Block" located in the Richardson Township, Rainy River District of northwestern Ontario. The Burns Block property adjoins the immediate east of the main Rainy River Resources' block which hosts the #17 / ODM gold deposits and where four drill rigs are actively exploring. Rainy River Resources will begin drilling on Bayfield's Burns Block shortly.
Last October Rainy River Resources reported a new gold discovery in hole NR07-187 a few hundred metres east-southeast of the #17 zone, with a wide interval of 61.5 metres grading 1.77 grams per tonne gold including 9.0 metres grading 6.64 grams per tonne gold (see Oct. 15, 2007, news issued by RR). NR08-258, collared 60 metres east of NR07-187, was successful in intersecting this same gold zone with an interval of 25.5 metres grading 1.57 grams per tonne gold, including a higher-grade interval of 10.5 metres grading 2.83 grams per tonne gold. This new gold zone is interpreted to represent either the faulted eastern extension of the #17 zone, or a new stacked gold horizon lying between the #17 and Cap zones. NR08-258, lies 60 metres west-southwest of the Burns block owned by Bayfield Ventures Corp. and under an option agreement with Rainy River Resources (see Dec. 3, 2007, news issued by RR). Detailed drilling is planned to trace the limits of this new gold zone.
