Canada's Odyssey Resources has reported that its Tavsan epithermal gold property in western Turkey has returned an average of 1.01 grams of gold per metric ton (g/t) from 126 meters of continuous interval from Trench F, including 4.78 g/t over seven meters and 1.50 g/t over 28 meters.  

 

Trench F is located 250 meters northeast of Trench E and the northeastern boundary of the Main Zone, host to an historic resource of approximately 280,000 ounces. The results from Trench F significantly extend the strike length of the Main Zone to the northeast. Results from trenches G and H, a further 250 and 500 meters to the northeast, respectively, are expected shortly. 

 

Odyssey Resources continues to expand the Tavsan project with the recent acquisition of an additional exploration license covering the balance of the Sivritepe gold zone. It was acquired 100 percent by government auction and is approximately 10 square kilometers located immediately south and west of the Main Zone.
