Norden Crown Metals Corp. announced the commencement of an exploration drilling program (~2,500 metres) at its 100% owned Burfjord Copper Project ("Burfjord" or the "Project") in northern Norway. Norden Crown, in partnership with Boliden Mineral AB ("Boliden"), is drill testing a variety of geological, geochemical, and geophysical target anomalies identified during the successful 2020 exploration programs. The objective of the drill program is to continue testing copper-gold grades and continuity of new targets, historical mines, and prospects. Previous drilling by Norden Crown at Burfjord returned compelling results including an intercept of 32 metres averaging 0.56% copper and 0.26 g/t gold (including 3.46 metres of 4.31% copper and 2.22 g/t gold) at shallow depths below a cluster of historic mine workings1,2. Historical drilling on the Project (Cedarsgruvan) was reported to have returned 7.0 metres averaging 3.6% copper. Diamond Drilling: Norden Crown has engaged Arctic Drilling NOR (Norway) to complete ~2,500 metres of diamond drilling with the objective of expanding the footprint of mineralization identified in 2019 and to test additional geological, geochemical and geophysical targets identified in the 2020 field programs. Arctic Drilling has now mobilized onto the Burfjord property and drilling has commenced. The summer 2021 diamond drilling program is designed to follow up on 3 holes (970.5 metres) drilled in the Peninsula and Gamlegruva target areas in February and March this year. The winter drill program was terminated due to logistical complications caused by inclement winter weather conditions and restrictions imposed by Covid-19 safety measures. 2021 Exploration Targets: The 2021 exploration drilling program at Burfjord is focused on a number of copper targets that contain or are surrouned by historical adits, pits and workings within the extensively iron-carbonate altered Burfjord Anticline. These targets have been identified and prioritized using lithological and structrual mapping, extensive rock and soil sampling and ground based electromagnetic geophysics. The "East Limb" targets constitute a ~5 kilometer-long trend of discontinuously outcropping copper occurrences and historical mine adits characterized by disseminated copper sulphide mineralization (chalcopyrite and sporadic bornite) associated with hematite-jasper breccia and/or carbonate veins hosted by chlorite (locally albite) or potassically altered pillow basalts and albitized black shales. As part of a surface exploration program in 2020 an electromagnetic (TEM) anomaly (130-150 Siemens) was identifed in the southern portion of the East Limb that is approximately 1,900 metrers in strike with a near-vertical dip. This feature occurs near the mafic volcanic-albitized black shale contact and is the target horizon for a number of the planned drill holes in the East Limb. The Hinge Zone is a structural target that in the hinge of the Burfjord Anticline and is characterized by intensely albitized black shales, breccias (e.g. Cedarsgruvan workings) and albitized dolomite (e.g., Cedarelva workings) in widespread, intense iron-carbonate alteration. Disseminated copper sulfides and structurally controlled high-grade copper sulphide bearing veins are present within this target area. The geology of West Limb is dominated by a 3,000 meter by 400 meter albite-iron carbonate-magnetite altered clastic sedimentary unit (L-Unit) that is locally brecciated and contains disseminated copper sulphides (chalcopyrite) and chalcopyrite bearing quartz-carbonate veins. Historic adits are present within and along the flanks of this unit and are the focus exploratory drilling in this program.
