Exploration Highlights
Rathbun surface grab samples return up to 7.2 g/t palladium, 1.1 g/t platinum, 0.7 g/t gold, 1.0% copper, and 0.5% nickel.
Cobalt Hill 3D IP survey identifies a large 600 m by 500 m anomaly with an untested core that may extend to depth below the survey limit.
Rathbun Footwall Structure
A highly successful prospecting program at Rathbun, including trenching, mapping, and sampling, has exposed a
Grab samples of the mineralization along strike returned up to 7.2 g/t palladium, 1.1 g/t platinum, 0.7 g/t gold, 1.0 % copper, 0.5 % nickel. The geological structure has been named the Rathbun Footwall Structure (RFS). It is composed of recrystallized
An example of this type of high-grade mineralization analogous to
Beginning this fall/winter, we plan to use geophysics and drilling to identify and test targets along the RFS.
Cobalt Hill 3D
The results of the 3D induced polarization (IP) survey at Cobalt Hill has identified a 600 m north-south by 500 m east-west anomaly. The IP anomaly is in the center of the observed alteration and brecciation at Cobalt Hill. It has a strong correlation with Inventus' surface mapping and drill intersections of the sulfide breccia. 2021 drill hole CH-21-02 intersected the northern edge of the anomaly and returned an intersection of 7 m of 4.4 g/t gold, 0.09% cobalt and 0.03% nickel within 44 m of 1.3 g/t gold, 0.04% cobalt and 0.02% nickel. The center of the IP anomaly occurs 200 m south of drill hole CH-21-02 and begins at approximately 150 m depth.
Inventus is currently planning a winter drilling program at Cobalt Hill to test the IP anomaly associated with the mineral system at Cobalt Hill.
'The IP results from Cobalt Hill are very encouraging and illustrate a sizeable untested target that extends at depth. The IP anomaly correlates well with the IOCG-type gold, cobalt, nickel and REE mineralization found on the surface and intersected in drilling at the northern edge of the anomaly in early 2021. This is a strong indication that the survey results illustrate increased sulfide concentrations that may extend below the lower limit of the IP survey. I am very excited to get the drill spinning and explore this mineral system below surface,' said
The property-wide airborne MT survey was completed in August, and the final 3D inversion product was finished in September. The MT data has provided Inventus with valuable subsurface information above the Temagami Geophysical Anomaly including an abundance of low resistivity structural targets similar to the one that hosts the
