ATAC Resources Ltd. Increases its Land Position Near its Recent Osiris Discovery
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 20, 2010) - ATAC Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:ATC) announces that it has staked an additional 801 claims at its wholly-owned Rau Gold Project, which is located in the Keno Hill district of central Yukon Territory.
The new claims adjoin the eastern and northeastern edges of the Company's existing claim block. The additional 167 sq/km of staking increases the Company's land position near its recent Osiris discovery, where Carlin-type gold mineralization occurs at the Osiris, Isis, Conrad and Eaton Zones. These zones lie within a 25 km belt of anomalous gold and pathfinder geochemistry, which was previously known as the Sten area but has now been named the Nadaleen Trend. Assays from the upper half of the first hole from the Osiris Zone averaged 4.65 g/t gold over 65.20 m (see news release dated September 1, 2010). An updated claim map can be viewed on ATAC's website.
