Carlisle Goldfields Announces Positive Drilling Results from its Farley Lake Mine Project, Including 35 Metres Grading 6.83 g/t Au
Bruce Reid, President and CEO of Carlisle commented, "The final four holes from the 25 hole 2012 Farley Lake drill program, show that the deposit contains high-grade intersections at multiple depths all within 400 metres of surface. The 2012 drill program combined with our data analysis from historical information, shows that the Farley Lake Project has validity and boasts serious potential for the Lynn Lake Gold Camp."

About Farley Lake Mine Project: The Farley Lake Mine Project ("Farley Lake") is located approximately 35 km east of the Town of Lynn Lake. The Farley Lake Mine was put into production as two small open pits in 1997-99. 1,707,000 tonnes were mined at a grade of 4.23 g/t recovering 213,124 oz gold. Historical recoveries were over 90%. Historically, the project has been extensively drilled with over 300 diamond drill core holes done primarily during the 1990s.
As noted in Carlisle's news release dated March 19, 2013, Carlisle commenced a 25 hole drill program on the project in June 2012 which was completed in December 2012. This deposit differs from the Company's other deposits in the Lynn Lake Camp as it is hosted in a Pre-Cambrian sedimentary iron formation. The iron formation in the Farley Lake area is 6 km long by 600 m wide (Milligan, 1960) and is predominantly composed of an oxide facies iron formation that is intercalated with clastic sediments (Dahlstrom, 1949; Milligan, 1960).

In March 2012 (see News Release dated March 13, 2012), Carlisle announced an updated Resource Estimate on its MacLellan Gold Project in Lynn Lake, Manitoba. This included Open Pit and Underground Resources in the Measured and Indicated Categories having increased to 32.4 million tonnes containing 2,018,100 ounces of AuEq at an average grade of 1.94 g/t AuEq (1.9 g/t Au and 4.4g/t Ag). The pit‐contained Measured and Indicated categories of 29.9 million tonnes contain 1.7 million ounces of AuEq at an average grade of 1.8g/t AuEq (1.7 g/t Au and 4.4g/t Ag). The current Measured and Indicated Categories represent 94% of this total resource estimate.
In September 2012 (see News Release dated September 24, 2012), Carlisle announced its initial Burnt Timber Project Inferred Resource estimate totaling 23,438,000 tonnes containing 780,500 ounces of gold ("Au") at an average grade of 1.04 grams per tonne ("g/t").
