Bitterroot Resources Ltd. Stakes 98,000 Acres Adjoining Kiyuk Gold Discovery in Nunavut

Bitterroot Resources Ltd.'s (TSX-V; BTT) field crews have staked the 40-claim Windy Property, covering approximately 154 square miles (398 square kilometres) adjoining Prosperity Goldfields Corp.'s Kiyuk gold project in southern Nunavut. The claims are located near Nueltin Lake, approximately 60 kilometres north of the Manitoba border. Bitterroot's Windy Property covers parts of the under-explored early Proterozoic Kiyuk sedimentary sub-basin, which hosts several significant new gold discoveries.

Bitterroot's Windy Property covers exposures of the early Proterozoic Hurwitz and Kiyuk group sediments in a structurally-complex area. Based on mapping by the Geological Survey of Canada, structural trends and stratigraphic units associated with recently discovered gold mineralization on Prosperity Goldfield's Kiyuk property continue onto Bitterroot's Windy property. Gold mineralization on Prosperity Goldfields' Kiyuk property is associated with strong magnetite-albite or albite-actinolite-quartz-carbonate alteration and steeply dipping thrust faults. The sediment-hosted gold mineralization at Kiyuk may have an Iron Oxide Copper-Gold (IOCG) affinity, although this is still a preliminary view. Prosperity Goldfields' recent exploration successes indicate that the under-explored Kiyuk sub-basin has the potential to host large gold-bearing systems.
