During the 2022 exploration season, CMC continued its program of extending previous soil geochemical surveys at Silver Hart as a part of validating targets identified by its property wide airborne SkyTEM geophysical survey completed in 2021. Approximately 400 samples were collected this past season in three areas (i) The T3 area immediately southeast of the
The T3 area immediately southeast of the
An area immediately northwest if the vein system, bordering the eastern edge of the T1 anomaly and extending northwards to the T6 anomaly: This grid was not completed this past season but did result in the identification of two anomalous areas, with coincident silver and zinc values and to a lesser extent lead in soils. The northeastern most portion of this grid covered a transition of high to low magnetics. In particular, silver in soil values were aligned with the magnetic transition and zinc values increased into the lower magnetic signatures. Also, on the southwestern portion of this grid strong silver in soil anomalies were identified over half of which were coincident with high zinc values. This area is thought to be a part of the 'carbonate belt'. These results suggest new areas of prospectivity that are yet to be mapped or trenched in any detail and requires further investigation. Furthermore, they suggest that geochemical surveys in this part of the property should be extended eastwards to investigate areas with lower magnetic signatures that suggest the presence of sedimentary sequences that could be north-northeast of T5.
An area northwest of the T1 anomaly and east of the T8 anomaly. This area did not produce anomalous results and the magnetics suggest that the area may be underlain by intrusive units.
In conclusion, the results are contributing to our further understanding of the mineralization at Silver Hart and are identifying new areas of prospectivity. These current findings validate previous hypothesis that:
Areas of magnetic transition areas are associated with geochemical anomalies. Areas with lower magnetism suggest the presence of sedimentary sequences and the associated positive geochemical responses indicate possible areas for silver-lead-zinc mineralization. These areas need to be geochemically sampled, prospected and mapped in greater detail. It is interesting to note that a majority of the
Geochemical anomalies continue to be identified within the 'carbonate belt' and have areas with higher coincident values of silver-lead-zinc values that may be indicative of the presence of mineralized veins or mantos; Areas of higher silicification are associated with strong geochemical silver-lead-zinc soil anomalies and, A soil anomaly associated with a magnetic anomaly (as in the area proximal to T6) suggests skarnified sediments sitting on top of intrusives that may be up to 50 meters or more in thickness and present targets.
The primary conclusion is that
