The Infill Sampling was designed to analyze previously sampled and unsampled intervals of historical drill core with the objective of adding new gold mineralization at the Project.
Drill hole RS-83-01 returned significant mineralization, intersecting 1.5 metres ('m') of 10.9 grams per tonne ('g/t') gold ('Au'), 34.1 g/t silver ('Ag'), 0.5 % copper ('Cu'), and 1.8 % zinc ('Zn'), including 0.8 m of 20.8 g/t Au, 56.9 g/t Ag, 0.7% Cu, and 3.3% Zn in previously sampled core.
'Utilizing the Infill Sampling results with the 2023 desktop compilation and surface sampling results will help us better define our first drilling campaign targets in the East Divide zone. We are aiming to kickstart this drilling in mid-2024, after completion of a ground IP survey,' remarked
Infill Sampling and Exploration Plan Summary
The Infill Sampling program gave
In previously unsampled core, three of the four drill holes intersected low-grade gold mineralization within 10 m of the hole end, indicating further potential at depth. Drill hole RS-83-01 intersected 0.2 g/t Au over 1.0 m at the bottom of hole. Additionally, hole RS-83-07 intersected 0.2 g/t Au over 0.6 m; hole RS-83-14 intersected near-surface gold mineralization grading 0.1 g/t Au over 1.4 m.
These results confirm the extension of the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt onto the Tabor Property. The presence of gold and base metal mineralization within quartz veining associated with shear zones, often at the junctions of mafic and intermediate volcanics, is reminiscent of
The Infill Sampling yielded valuable insights at a minimal cost, including: Verification of historic core to confirm lithology, mineralization, alteration, veining, and structures previously logged
Acquisition of historic core photographs for archival and future reference 69 in-fill samples (half-core) from previously unsampled core segments 26 new samples of previously sampled core sections for zone confirmation Phase 2 Plan for Priority Targets
Surface Exploration: Additional field visits may take place to define targets for further detailed mapping and sampling of outcrops.
Re-logging and Sampling of Historic Core: Four historic drill holes on the Property have been sampled, results are in progress.
Drill Program: Utilizing all of the data collected in 20323 and 2024, the Company will design its initial drill campaign to discover new gold mineralization.
About the
Tabor is adjacent to the east, along trend of the Goldshore's
Gold mineralization on the Project is believed to be associated with quartz veins, shearing and sulphides. Geological and mineralization characteristics at Tabor are similar to those found on some of the Company's neighbouring properties, including
