Collective Mining Discovers a New High-Grade Zone at the Breccia to Porphyry Contact by Drilling 104.8 Metres Grading 5.56 g/t Gold Equivalent from Surface at Apollo

Post author By admin
Post date April 25, 2023

Two reconnaissance holes were drilled eastwards from Pad 6 at the Apollo system to test the potential for high grade mineralization at the eastern contact zone where the inter-mineral breccia and the host porphyry vein stockwork meet. Based on prior observations, the concept to be proved was that the contact zone forms a trap for the accumulation of excess metal driven by the location where the late-stage carbonate base metal veins enter the system. The scout hole, APC-41, was drilled obliquely to the contact and was not optimally situated to fully test the zone. Based on the logging of that hole, APC-42 was then appropriately drilled orthogonal to the contact zone.
APC-42, which expanded the overall dimensions of the Apollo system modestly to the southwest intersected high-grade gold-silver-copper mineralization from surface over a broad interval with the highest accumulation (grams X metres) of oxide material encountered to date as follows:
APC-41, which was drilled at a suboptimal angle, also intercepted high-grade mineralization from surface with a robust oxide zone as follows:
Six additional holes have been completed at the Apollo system with assay results expected in the near term. All six holes intersected cumulative mineralization over varying yet significant downhole drill lengths. Three drill rigs are operating on site with a fourth rig expected to begin operating prior the end of Q2, 2023.

Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: “This new step-out drilling into the eastern area of the Apollo system has outlined a new and important high-grade zone where extensive quartz stockwork veining has resulted in an abundance of high-grade metal being trapped at the interface between breccia and porphyry. A drill hole from Pad 10, located northeast from Pad 6, is underway to test this new high-grade zone along the contact to the northeast. The surprises at Apollo continue to be positive and I am confident that not only will the Apollo porphyry system continue to grow with further exploratory drilling but that we will make new discoveries in the near term by remaining aggressive with our drilling.”

TORONTO, April 25, 2023 /CNW/ – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from a further two drill holes completed within the Apollo porphyry system (“Apollo”) at the Guayabales project located in Caldas, Colombia. Apollo is a high-grade, bulk tonnage copper-silver-gold system, which owes its excellent metal endowment to an older copper-silver and gold porphyry system being overprinted by younger precious metal rich, carbonate base metal vein systems (intermediate sulphidation porphyry veins) within a magmatic, hydrothermal inter-mineral breccia body currently measuring 395 metres x 385 metres x 915 metres and open for expansion.

Details (See Table 1 and Figures 1-4)

The Phase II drilling program of 2023 is advancing on schedule with thirteen holes completed and results announced. A further six holes have been drilled and await assay results from the lab. The objectives of the 2023 program is to define the high-grade mineralization and dimensions of the Apollo porphyry system near surface, expand the size of the system through step-out and directional drilling and drill test multiple new targets generated through grassroot exploration. Since the announcement of the discovery hole at Apollo in June 2022, a total of 44 drill holes (approximately 18,400 metres) have been completed and assayed.

This press release announces results from two exploratory holes drilled eastwards from Pad 6 and designed to test the contact zone between the porphyry and inter-mineral breccia. The first hole, APC-41, was drilled to the northeast at a shallow angle and was suboptimal in design as it was drilled oblique to the contact zone. Based on the understanding gained from the first hole, APC-42 was drilled steeply due east and intercepted the contact zone at an orthogonal angle. Assay results and geological observations for both holes are summarized below:

APC-42 was drilled steeply to the east from surface at Pad 6 to a maximum downhole depth of 126.3 metres. The mineralized interval includes 44.55 metres of combined saprolite and saprock with iron oxides formed from the oxidation of the sulphides hosted within the matrix of the breccia and within veins. Below the oxidized zone, the intercept passes into fresh rock with a sulphide composition of 0.5% chalcopyrite, 1.5% pyrite and pyrrhotite (up to 0.5%). One of the characteristic features of this intercept is the fact that it passes through a contact zone between breccia and porphyry. This zone contains both mineralized breccia and a stockwork of sulphide bearing quartz and carbonate veins within the adjacent porphyry material, all of which are associated with intense sericite alteration. Finally, the footwall zone of the porphyry is well altered and hosts mineralization associated with disseminated pyrite and quartz-pyrite veins with assay results as follows:

104.8 metres @ 5.56 g/t gold equivalent (consisting of 4.21 g/t gold, 68 g/t silver and 0.3% copper) including:

This intercept is followed by 19.35 metres @ 0.33 g/t gold equivalent from 106.95 metres downhole and is hosted within quartz diorite porphyry.

APC-41 was drilled to the northeast from Pad 6 to a maximum downhole depth of 162.4 metres and was designed to test the contact zone between breccia and porphyry. The mineralized interval starts at 1.65 metres depth below the overburden and intersects 28.05 metres of combined saprolite and saprock with iron oxides formed from the oxidation of the sulphides hosted within the matrix of the breccia and within veins. Below the oxide zone, the intercept passes into fresh rock consisting of quartz diorite breccia with a matrix of chalcopyrite (0.2%), pyrite (up to 2%) and 0.1% pyrrhotite before exiting the breccia and entering into mineralized quartz diorite porphyry. As in APC-42, the contact zone is characterized by a stockwork of sulphide bearing quartz and carbonate, porphyry veins associated with intense sericite alteration. The sericite is overprinting earlier potassium alteration (biotite). Finally, the footwall porphyry is altered and hosts mineralization associated with disseminated pyrite and quartz-pyrite veins with assay results as follows:

82.1 metres @ 3.09 g/t gold equivalent (consisting of 2.81 g/t gold, 13 g/t silver and 0.1% copper) including:

This intercept is followed by a lower grade intercept of 57 metres @ 0.34 g/t gold equivalent from 83.7 metres downhole and is hosted within quartz diorite porphyry.

Six additional holes have been completed at the Apollo system with assay results expected in the near term. All holes intersected bulk tonnage mineralization over core length of up to more than 500 metres. APC-45 and APC-48 were shorter holes drilled from Pad 7, designed to test the contact zone between the inter-mineral breccia and porphyry host rock in the southern portion of the deposit. APC-44 and APC-46 were longer holes drilled from Pad 6 as part of the fan pattern of drilling to assess the shallow mineralization in the central area of the system. APC-49 was a deeper hole drilled to the northwest from Pad 6 and APC-47 was drilled eastwards from Pad 4.

The Company presently has three diamond drill rigs operating at the Apollo project with a fourth rig expected to begin operating prior to the end of Q2, 2023. Additional assay results are expected in the near term.

The Apollo target area, as defined to date by surface mapping, rock sampling and copper and molybdenum soil geochemistry, covers a 1,000 metres X 1,200 metres area, and represents a large and unusually high-grade Cu-Ag-Au porphyry system. Mineralizations styles include early-stage porphyry veins, inter-mineral breccia mineralization and multiple zones of porphyry related late stage, sheeted, carbonate-base metal veins with high gold and silver grades. The Apollo target area is still expanding as the Company’s geologists have found multiple additional outcrop areas with porphyry veining, breccia, and late stage, sheeted, carbonate base metal veins.

Dolly Varden Silver Mobilizes Five Drill Rigs and Outlines Discovery-Oriented 45,000 Meter Drill Program

Post author By admin
Post date April 24, 2023

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 24, 2023) – Dolly Varden Silver Corporation (TSXV: DV) (OTCQX: DOLLF) (the “Company” or “Dolly Varden“) announces the 2023 Exploration Plans for the Kitsault Valley Project, which includes the Dolly Varden Silver property and Homestake Ridge Gold Silver property. A total of 40,000 to 45,000m of drilling is planned to build upon last year’s successes through further step outs following high grade silver and gold mineralization at the Wolf and Homestake Ridge deposits, as well as appropriately spaced exploration holes to allow the inclusion of new mineralization drilled over the past three drilling programs to be include in an updated Mineral Resource Estimate.

“2022 was a breakthrough exploration season at Dolly Varden Silver’s Kitsault Valley project. It hosts one of the largest, undeveloped high grade precious metals project in Western Canada. With the wide, high-grade silver intercepts in significant step-out holes from the Wolf and Homestake Silver deposits, coupled with the highest grade gold intercepts drilled in all of the Golden Triangle in 2022 from the Homestake Main deposit, we eagerly await the start of this season’s drilling. We are continuing our successful strategy of expanding current Resources, while also testing new exploration targets for discovery. The company has over $26 million in the treasury, positioning our exploration team with a tremendous opportunity to create value with the drill bit,” said Shawn Khunkhun, President and CEO of Dolly Varden Silver.

Dolly Varden: Wolf and Kitsol Veins

Drilling allocated to the Wolf Deposit expansion will focus on both infill drilling of the wide-spaced intercepts from 2022 to be included in an upcoming resource estimate, as well as further step out holes in both the southwest, north and east directions where high grade silver mineralization remains open. Two intercepts from the Wolf Vein drilled in 2022 at the furthest strike extents of the vein, are approximately 825 meters apart. The deposit is wide open for expansion along strike and to depth.

Wolf Vein furthest Northeast: DV22-329: 1,499 g/t Ag, 1.89 %Pb, 0.46% Zn over 15.94 meters (8.77 meters estimated true width), including 23,997 g/t Ag, 1.24% Pb, 0.34% Zn over 0.35 meters (0.19m estimated true width).
Wolf Vein furthest Southwest: DV22-320: 321g/t Ag, 0.84 %Pb, 0.84% Zn over 12.85 meters (6.81 meters estimated true width) including 664 g/t Ag, 1.24% Pb, 3.54% Zn over 1.63 meters (0.86 meters estimated true width).

Similar step out drilling will follow up on high grade silver mineralization at the Kitsol Vein, where drill hole DV22-323 demonstrated the continuity of steeply plunging, high-grade silver mineralization with results of 301g/t Ag, 0.23 %Pb, 0.56% Zn over 15.00 meters (9.60 meters estimated true width) including 434 g/t Ag, 0.41% Pb, 0.69% Zn over 5.90 meters (3.78 meters estimated true width).

Homestake Ridge: Main and Silver

The 2023 exploration drilling at the Homestake deposits are influenced by the structural information gained from the infill drilling at Main where two main plunge directions have been identified; a shallow, northerly plunge and a steep southerly plunge, where NE-SW structures crosscut the main Homestake trend. The planned drilling will target the down plunge extensions of higher grade and wider zones of gold mineralization such as 2022 drill hole HR22-333 which intersected 46.31 g/t Au, 70 g/t Ag and 0.19% Cu over 25.00 meters including 1,145 g/t Au, 826 g/t Ag and 0.51% Cu over 0.48 meters core length.

Drilling at Homestake Silver will prioritize step out holes where 2022 expansion drilling had success at the southern extent, with HR22-362, a 200 meter step out that intersected 1,252 g/t Ag, 0.81 g/t Au and 0.14% Cu over 2.50 meters, including 3,330 g/t Ag, 0.75 g/t Au and 0.38% Cu over 0.75m.

Discovery Focused Exploration

The Moose Vein is a 2023 exploration drill target, testing an historic prospect with small exploration adit from the 1920s. It is located 1,500 meters north of the Wolf Deposit within the Potassic alteration halo associated with the Torbrit, Dolly Varden and Wolf silver deposits to the south. The Moose vein strikes east-west, similar to the Dolly Varden Vein, hosting silver grades and mineralization styles similar to areas of the Wolf vein, proximal to the high-grade plunge zone. The depth extent and projected extension of the Mooise Vein under the mid-valley sediment cap will be tested in the 2023 program.

Several blind drill targets under the 5.4 kilometer long mid-valley sediment cover will be better defined for later summer drill testing, after a planned ground IP survey is completed

Additional exploration targets will include parallel structural zones to the west of Homestake Main trend, coincident with a broad gold in soils anomalous zone overlying a quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration zone.

Goldshore Expands Gold Mineralization Along Strike and at Depth at the Southwest Zone; Includes Intersects 2.17 g/t Au over 50.35m and 6.96 g/t Au over 15.05m

Post author By admin
Post date April 20, 2023

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 20, 2023) – Goldshore Resources Inc. (TSXV: GSHR) (OTCQB: GSHRF) (FSE: 8X00) (“Goldshore” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce assay results from its recently completed drill program at the Moss Lake Project in Northwest Ontario, Canada (the “Moss Gold Project“).

Highlights:

Results from seven holes testing the extension of the Southwest Zone toward the Main Zone have delineated a new high-grade lens, including visible gold, northeast of the Southwest Zone resource that extends from surface to at least 250 meters depth with best intercepts of:
6.96 g/t Au over 15.05m from 189.4m depth in MMD-22-105, including
- 54.4 g/t Au over 1.6m from 189.4m
2.17 g/t Au over 50.35m from 103.55m depth in MMD-23-114, including
- 3.47 g/t Au over 26.05m from 120.35m

1.30 g/t Au over 21.35m from 214m depth in MMD-22-108, including
- 2.60 g/t Au over 7.35 from 228.0m
These drill results prove that the Southwest Zone is a continuation of the Main Zone and not a fault offset as previously interpreted. They also show that the Southwest Zone extends to depth and is potentially as large as the Main Zone.
With drilling recently completed, the Company is preparing an updated mineral resource expected in May. The updated resource will use data from an additional 72 holes compared to the November 2022 resource. Mineralization in the resource area remains open in multiple directions.

President and CEO Brett Richards stated: “These results continue to support our belief that the size and scale of the Moss Gold Project is much larger and continues to be open at all directions, along strike both to the northeast and southwest, as well as our understanding of lateral mineralized targets to the south-east of the Southwest Zone and the Main Zone. For now, we have halted the program to step back; understand the quantum of this resource, and prepare for a mineral resource update in early May, we can now see a viable path to a meaningful project PEA (preliminary economic analysis). We look forward to those results in the coming months, as we start to plan for an infill drilling program working towards a pre-feasibility study in the future.”

Continued infill of the Southwest Zone has delineated a new continuous high-grade structure over a 250m strike length from near surface to 200m depth immediately northeast of the historical Southwest Zone. Holes MMD-22-105, -108, -109 and MMD-23-113, and -114 intersected this structure along with previously released holes MMD-22-031, -042, -063, and -064. The newly understood zone orientation was tested against the phase 1 drill results and confirmed the continuity of the high-grade structures controlling the mineralization.

The mineralized zone occurs within an albitite+hematite altered diorite intrusion complex cut by closely spaced, texturally destructive sericite+chlorite+carbonate altered shears. Additional shearing, and subsequent alteration, is seen extending into the neighboring intermediate volcanics but is poorly mineralized.

The gold mineralization appears more nuggety than elsewhere in the deposit with a greater portion of the mineralization attributed to pyrite±chalcopyrite bearing quartz-carbonate veins within the sheared intervals. Mineralization includes visible gold (Figure 4). Several very high-grade intercepts include:

54.4 g/t Au over 1.6m from 189.4m depth in MMD-22-105

11.3 g/t Au over 0.5m from 147.7m depth in MMD-22-108 and
11.5 g/t Au over 0.7m from 232.35m
10.6 g/t Au over 0.95m from 323.3m depth in MMD-23-112

19.0 g/t Au over 0.65m from 54m depth in MMD-23-114 and
22.9 g/t Au over 1m from 128m depth and
14.4 g/t Au over 1m from 137m depth

Holes MMD-22-109 and MMD-23-113 intersected the high-grade structure but encountered lesser vein mineralization resulting in more modest grade intercepts including:

0.44 g/t Au over 81.2m from 298.8m depth in MMD-22-109, including
- 1.08 g/t Au over 8.60m from 335.35m

0.63 g/t Au over 29.5m from 129.55m depth in MMD-23-113, including
- 4.76 g/t Au over 2.0m from 140.0m and
0.51 g/t Au over 58m from 204.0m depth, including
- 1.92 g/t Au over 4.0m from 205.0m and
- 1.84 g/t Au over 3.0m from 229.0m

Holes MMD-22-106, and MMD-23-112 were focused on infilling the drill spacing of the existing Southwest Zone. All three holes intercepted broad zones of mineralization hosted primarily within altered granodiorite containing narrow higher grade shear zones. Best intercepts include:

Pete Flindell, VP Exploration for Goldshore, said, “These results show that the Southwest Zone is much larger and better mineralized than historical drillholes suggested; and is potentially as large as the Main Zone. We await the results from the final batch of assays that are expected to provide critical infill beneath the heart of the Southwest Zone.”

Analytical and QA/QC Procedures

All samples were sent to ALS Geochemistry in Thunder Bay for preparation and analysis was performed in the ALS Vancouver analytical facility. ALS is accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for the Accreditation of Mineral Analysis Testing Laboratories and CAN-P-4E ISO/IEC 17025. Samples were analyzed for gold via fire assay with an AA finish (“Au-AA23”) and 48 pathfinder elements via ICP-MS after four-acid digestion (“ME-MS61”). Samples that assayed over 10 ppm Au were re-run via fire assay with a gravimetric finish (“Au-GRA21”).

In addition to ALS quality assurance / quality control (“QA/QC”) protocols, Goldshore has implemented a quality control program for all samples collected through the drilling program. The quality control program was designed by a qualified and independent third party, with a focus on the quality of analytical results for gold. Analytical results are received, imported to our secure on-line database and evaluated to meet our established guidelines to ensure that all sample batches pass industry best practice for analytical quality control. Certified reference materials are considered acceptable if values returned are within three standard deviations of the certified value reported by the manufacture of the material. In addition to the certified reference material, certified blank material is included in the sample stream to monitor contamination during sample preparation. Blank material results are assessed based on the returned gold result being less than ten times the quoted lower detection limit of the analytical method. The results of the on-going analytical quality control program are evaluated and reported to Goldshore by Orix Geoscience Inc.

Collective Mining Begins Mobilizing a Fourth Drill Rig to Test Six New High-Grade Porphyry Targets Within a 400 Metre Radius of the Apollo System

Post author By admin
Post date April 18, 2023

Exploration fieldwork has identified six well mineralized and outcropping porphyry and related style targets within a 400 metre radius of the Apollo system with assay results for soil and rock samples as follows:
Surface mapping at all six targets has outlined the same style of porphyry mineralization as the Apollo system, namely altered porphyry with vein stockwork, inter-mineral breccia with oxide followed by sulphides in the matrix and overprinting late-stage porphyry veins (“CBM Veins”).
Although the amount of rock and soil exposure in the sampling radius covering each of the six target areas is limited due to vegetation, historical landslides and volcanic ash cover, the scale of the areas and tenor of the assay results are similar to the original outcrop of the Apollo system. The Company estimates that there is no more than 5% rock exposure anywhere at the Guayabales project.
For comparison, the outcrop of the Apollo porphyry system prior to drilling only measured 10 metres in diameter. Subsequent drilling has outlined a porphyry system that to date measures 150 metres by 130 metres at surface, which then expands in dimensions quickly at depth to up to 500 metres wide and remains open.
Surface sampling was carried out in oxidized material and if the oxidation zone shares similar characteristics to the Apollo system, the copper and silver grades have been reduced by leaching. Recent drill results from Pad 6 and Pad 7 at Apollo corroborates this assertion.
A fourth drill rig is being mobilized to the project and is expected to initiate testing of the six new targets in late Q2, 2023.
Six additional holes have been completed at the Apollo system with assay results expected in the near term. APC-41, APC-42 and APC-45 are shorter holes designed to test the contact zones between the inter-mineral breccia and porphyry host rock in search of higher-grade sub zones. APC-44 and APC 46 are longer holes (up to 425 metres in mineralization) drilled from Pad 6 as part of a fan pattern to assess the shallow mineralization in this area and APC-47 is an exploratory hole drilled to the east from Pad 4 to test for mineralization beginning from below surface.

Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: “The discovery of these new mineralized porphyry outcrops around Apollo are both exciting and significant for the Company. The original discovery outcrop of Apollo only covered a 10 metre radius and subsequent drilling has demonstrated that Apollo has the morphology of an inverted carrot with limited surface expression. This fact puts these new targets into perspective and highlights that the Apollo area is highly prospective for further exploration. We only found these new outcrops because of various recently excavated tracks emplaced to service and supply the drilling pads. I am looking forward to new drill rigs turning at these targets in the near term.”

TORONTO, April 18, 2023 /CNW/ – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce exploration results from six newly generate porphyry and related style targets located within the Apollo target area at the Guayabales project located in Caldas, Colombia. The Apollo porphyry system is a high-grade, bulk tonnage copper-silver-gold system, which owes its excellent metal endowment to an older copper-silver and gold porphyry system being overprinted by younger precious metal rich, carbonate base metal vein systems (intermediate sulphidation porphyry veins) within a magmatic, hydrothermal inter-mineral breccia body currently measuring 395 metres x 385 metres x 915 metres and open for expansion.

Details (See Table 1 and Figures 1-3)

Exploration fieldwork has identified six target areas with outcropping porphyry style mineralization which are located within a 400 metre radius of the Apollo porphyry system. These new targets were generated by geological mapping, soil sampling and most importantly the emplacement of new tracks to enable supplies and equipment to be transported to the current drill pads in the area. Two key characteristics pertinent to understanding the potential impact of the targets and their associated metal values in rock and soil are as follows:

Collectively, the targets consist of all the same mineralization styles observed in the Apollo system, namely early-stage porphyry style with various porphyry veinlets, inter-mineral breccia, and late stage CBM veins which host higher values of gold and silver. The copper values range between 31 ppm and 1,410 ppm and reflect leaching of copper and silver due to surface oxidation. The leaching of copper in oxides at Apollo has been observed in all oxidized material drilled from Pad 6 and Pad 7. Copper values near surface in these drill holes display very similar grades to those observed in the six outcrops outlined in this release. Gold values range from 0.18 g/t to 8.29 g/t and silver values from 0.2 g/t to 346 g/t with variation in both cases related to the mineralization styles encountered.

Cognizance must be taken of the surface area and 3D morphology of the Apollo porphyry system when assessing these new porphyry outcrops. The original Apollo discovery outcrop was only 10 metres in diameter and was the only exposure identified prior to the drilling of discovery hole APC-1. The discovery outcrop had gold, silver, and copper values in the ranges of 0.07 to 4.1 g/t gold, 1.9 to 29 g/t silver and 377 to 1,023 ppm copper. After the erection of multiple drill pads, another two outcrop areas were located at Apollo following the construction of various tracks which were emplaced to service the various drill rigs with equipment and supplies. There is only approximately 5% outcrop exposure at the Guayabales project due to the dense vegetation and the covering of primary rock surfaces by historic landslide fill and young volcanic ash. Furthermore, drilling at the Apollo deposit has demonstrated that the surface expression is relatively small with a maximum known diameter at present of 150 metres whereas at depth this expands quickly to a known diameter of up to 500 metres. The deposit is still open in all directions.

The following brief descriptions and data are summarized for each outcrop target:

Target 1:

This target is located 200 metres west of the Apollo outcrop area. This outcrop has dimensions of 20 metres by 3 metres and hosts early-stage porphyry mineralization as well as clast supported crackle breccia with an iron oxide matrix cement of 3% to 5% in volume. Drusy quartz veining is superimposed on the breccia. Pervasive and strong sericite alteration overprints the rock exposures. Gold grades range from 1.13 g/t to 0.34 g/t with silver ranging from 0.2 g/t to 6.6 g/t and copper in the range of 90 ppm to 224 ppm.

Target 2:

This target is located 300 metres northeast of the Apollo system, has outcrop dimensions of 120 metres by 60 metres and contains a couple of historical and shallow artisanal mines. Geological mapping has identified altered porphyry hosting angular breccia with quartz diorite clasts. The matrix of the breccia has total sulphides of up to 5% which is predominantly pyrite with some chalcopyrite. CBM veinlets overprint the breccia and trend NW and EW. Alteration is strong and defined by sericite and chlorite. Gold values range from 8.29 g/t to 1.51 g/t, silver from 10 g/t to 346 g/t and copper from 72 ppm to 362 ppm.

Target 3:

Target 3 is located 300 metres east-northeast of the Apollo system and has outcrop dimensions of 15 metres by 3 metres. The outcrop area hosts angular breccia with quartz diorite clasts with an iron oxide cement (1%-2%) after sulphides. Strong Sericite-chlorite alteration is observed. The target has subsequently been expanded to 75 metres by 170 metres by anomalous gold in soil values. Rock samples range from 0.18 g/t to 0.63 g/t gold, silver ranges from 2 g/t to 68 g/t and copper from 43 ppm to 277 ppm.

Target 4:

This target is located 250 metres east of the Apollo system with dimensions measuring 20 metres x 4 metres and host crackle breccia of diorite composition and altered porphyry rocks. Breccia cement hosts 2%-3% iron oxide after sulphide while both the porphyry and breccia units are overprinted by CBM veinlets. Strong sericite alteration is observed in the outcrop. The target has been expanded to 150 metres by 100 metres by anomalous gold in soil values. Rock samples range from 0.90 to 4.31 g/t gold, 1 g/t to 56 g/t silver and copper ranges from 125 ppm to 323 ppm.

Target 5:

This target area is located 100 metres due east of the Apollo system and has dimensions measuring 15 metres by 10 metres. Geology observed includes altered porphyry, angular breccia and late stage CBM veinlets. The breccia matrix hosts 3%-5% iron oxides after sulphide with strong sericitic alteration. Anomalous soil sample results for gold have expanded the target area to 200 metres by 100 metres. Rock samples range from 0.56 g/t to 5.59 g/t gold, 6 g/t to 70 g/t silver and copper ranges from 477 ppm to 833 ppm.

Target 6:

This target area is located 400 metres due southeast of the Apollo system and outcrops over a 30 metre diameter area. The outcrop hosts angular, polymictic, clast supported breccia (diorite and quartz diorite) and altered porphyry with quartz veinlets. The matrix cement hosts visible sulphides of 3%-5% and consists of chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena and pyrite. Rock samples range from 0.39 g/t to 1.07 g/t gold, 6 g/t to 20 g/t silver and copper ranges from 32 ppm to 1,410 ppm.

Update on Apollo Drilling Progress

The Phase II drilling program of 2023 is advancing on schedule with thirteen holes completed and a further six holes in the lab awaiting assay results. Since the discovery of the Apollo porphyry system was announced in June 2022, a total of 44 drill holes (approximately 18,978 metres) have been completed and assayed.

Six additional holes have been completed from the three current drill pads with assay results expected in the near term. APC-44 and APC-46 are long holes drilled in westerly direction with continuous visual mineralization of up to 425 metres. APC-41, APC-42 and APC-45 are shorter holes designed to test the contact zones between breccia and porphyry in potentially higher-grade areas. APC-47 is an exploratory hole drilled to the east from Pad 4. Assay results are expected in the near term.

The Company presently has three diamond drill rigs operating at the Apollo project and additional assay results are expected in the near term.

The Apollo target area, as defined to date by surface mapping, rock sampling and copper and molybdenum soil geochemistry, covers a 1,000 metres X 1,200 metres area, and represents a large and unusually high-grade Cu-Ag-Au porphyry system. Mineralization styles include early-stage porphyry veins, inter-mineral breccia mineralization and multiple zones of porphyry related late stage, sheeted, carbonate-base metal veins with high gold and silver grades. The Apollo target area is still expanding as the Company’s geologists have found multiple additional outcrop areas with porphyry veining, breccia, and late stage, sheeted, carbonate base metal veins.

IMF Unveils New Global Currency Known As The “Universal Monetary Unit” To “Transform” World Economy

IMF Unveils New Global Currency Known As The “Universal Monetary Unit” To “Transform” World Economy

Authored by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog,

A new global currency just launched, but 99 percent of the global population has no idea what just happened.

The “Universal Monetary Unit”, also known as “Unicoin”, is an “international central bank digital currency” that has been designed to work in conjunction with all existing national currencies. This should set off alarm bells for all of us, because the widespread adoption of a new “global currency” would be a giant step forward for the globalist agenda. The IMF did not create this new currency, but it was unveiled at a major IMF gathering earlier this week…

Today, at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Spring Meetings 2023, the Digital Currency Monetary Authority (DCMA) announced their official launch of an international central bank digital currency (CBDC) that strengthens the monetary sovereignty of participating central banks and complies with the recent crypto assets policy recommendations proposed by the IMF.
Universal Monetary Unit (UMU), symbolized as ANSI Character, Ü, is legally a money commodity, can transact in any legal tender settlement currency, and functions like a CBDC to enforce banking regulations and to protect the financial integrity of the international banking system.

As the press release quoted above indicates, this new “Universal Monetary Unit” was created by the Digital Currency Monetary Authority.

So who in the world is the Digital Currency Monetary Authority?

Honestly, I had no idea until I started doing research for this article.

The press release says that the organization consists of “sovereign states, central banks, commercial and retail banks, and other financial institutions”…

The DCMA is a world leader in the advocacy of digital currency and monetary policy innovations for governments and central banks. Membership within the DCMA consists of sovereign states, central banks, commercial and retail banks, and other financial institutions.

Basically, it sounds like a secretive cabal of international banks and national governments is conspiring to push this new currency down our throats.

We are being told that the “Universal Monetary Unit” is “‘Crypto 2.0”, and those that created it are hoping that it will be widely adopted by “all constituencies in a global economy”…

The DCMA introduces Universal Monetary Unit as Crypto 2.0 because it innovates a new wave of cryptographic technologies for realizing a digital currency public monetary system with a widespread adoption framework encompassing use cases for all constituencies in a global economy.

I don’t know about you, but this sounds super shady to me.

Of course the Digital Currency Monetary Authority is not the only one that has been working on a new digital currency.

The UK has also been working on one.

The same is true for the European Union.

And would it surprise anyone that the Biden administration is touting the potential benefits of a “digital form of the U.S. dollar”? The following comes from the official White House website…

A United States central bank digital currency (CBDC) would be a digital form of the U.S. dollar. While the U.S. has not yet decided whether it will pursue a CBDC, the U.S. has been closely examining the implications of, and options for, issuing a CBDC. If the U.S. pursued a CBDC, there could be many possible benefits, such as facilitating efficient and low-cost transactions, fostering greater access to the financial system, boosting economic growth, and supporting the continued centrality of the U.S. within the international financial system.

I don’t think that it is a coincidence that governments all over the western world are simultaneously developing CBDCs.

And the IMF has actually already put together an extensive handbook “to assist central banks and governments throughout the world in their CBDC rollouts”…

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is putting together a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) handbook to assist central banks and governments throughout the world in their CBDC rollouts.
Published publicly on April 10, the “IMF Approach to Central Bank Digital Currency Capacity Development” report outlines the IMF’s multi-year strategy for aiding CBDC rollouts, including the development of a living “CBDC Handbook” for monetary authorities to follow.

A lot of people out there will cheer when these digital currencies are introduced.

But it is imperative to understand that once everyone is using them, your financial privacy will be almost totally gone.

Authorities will be able to track virtually everything that you buy and sell, and I am sure that they won’t hesitate to use that information against you.

Needless to say, the potential for tyranny in such a system is off the charts.

Can you imagine a world in which you are restricted from buying meat for a while because you have already used your “carbon credits” for the month?

Your “financial privileges” could potentially be restricted at any time at the whim of a government bureaucrat, and if you are a big enough troublemaker you could be “deplatformed” from the system permanently.

Of course in order for such a system to have real teeth, cash and other forms of payment will need to be phased out, and that is precisely what is happening right now in Europe. The following comes from the official website of the European Parliament…

To restrict transactions in cash and crypto assets, MEPs want to cap payments that can be accepted by persons providing goods or services. They set limits up to €7000 for cash payments and €1000 for crypto-asset transfers, where the customer cannot be identified.

Ultimately, they will just keep lowering the limits until the use of cash is almost completely eliminated.

Everyone will be slowly but surely forced on to the new digital system, and it will be a system that they control with an iron fist.

And most people will willingly go along with it. These days, most people are just scraping by from month to month and one recent survey found that 70 percent of all Americans are “financially stressed” at this point…

Inflation, economic instability and a lack of savings have an increasing number of Americans feeling financially stressed.
Some 70% of Americans admit to being stressed about their personal finances these days and a majority — 52% — of U.S. adults said their financial stress has increased since before the Covid-19 pandemic began in March 2020, according to a new CNBC Your Money Financial Confidence Survey conducted in partnership with Momentive.

Most Americans simply do not care that these new digital currencies could open a door for great tyranny.

They just want to be able to pay the bills and take care of their families, and if our politicians tell them that this new system is good for the economy they will be all for it.

But those of us that are awake know that more globalism doesn’t lead anywhere good.

Concentrating even more power in the hands of the international elite is always a bad idea, and hopefully we can start to get more people to understand this.

Metallic Minerals Drills 1,310 g/t Ag Eq within 6.7 Meters of 196 g/t Ag Eq at Caribou Target at the Keno Silver Project in Yukon, Canada and Retains SGS for Inaugural Resource Estimates

Post author By admin
Post date April 10, 2023

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 10, 2023 / Metallic Minerals Corp. (TSX.V:MMG)(OTCQB:MMNGF) (“Metallic Minerals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce final results from the 2022 exploration program at its 100% owned high-grade Keno Silver project in the historic Keno Silver District of Yukon, Canada. A total of 642 meters (m) were drilled in six (6) holes at the Caribou target in the Central Keno area to test extensions of known high-grade and bulk-tonnage mineralization. This work was completed as part of a larger 3,265 m drill program focused on target extension drilling at our advanced-stage “resource-ready” targets (Caribou, Formo and Fox) in anticipation of an inaugural NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate for the Keno Silver project in 2023.

Highlights

Drilling at the Caribou target continues to successfully extend high-grade silver mineralization both down-dip and south along strike of the known extents of the Caribou structure with a total of 71 intercepts in 5,980 meters of drilling to date.
Hole CH22-01 intersected two separate higher grade vein intervals within a broad zone of bulk tonnage mineralization. From 91.5 to 92.0 meters a 0.5 m interval contained 348 (g/t) silver equivalent (“AgEq”) (see Table 1, Footnote 1) and 125.2 to 125.7 m the hole intercepted 0.5 m of 1,201 g/t Ag Eq bounding a zone of 34.2 m grading 38 g/t Ag Eq.
The southernmost drilling at the Caribou target, first drilled in 2021, continues to demonstrate strong potential for further extension with 1,310 g/t Ag Eq encountered over 0.5 m at a near-surface depth of 44 m in hole CH22-05.
The Company has retained SGS Geological Services to complete the inaugural resource estimate and modelling work is underway.

Metallic Minerals President, Scott Petsel, stated, “The Caribou vein target in the Central Keno Area is a classic example of “Keno-style” high-grade Ag-Pb-Zn vein mineralization and shows excellent potential for resources of significant scale. As one of five near-term resource targets on the property, Caribou has consistently returned grades over 1,000 g/t Ag Eq and, more recently, has been recognized as a potential bulk tonnage target returning widths of mineralization up to 34.2 meters of potentially economic grades in a shallowly dipping configuration.”

Metallic Minerals Corp., Monday, April 10, 2023, Press release picture

“With high-grade results at the Caribou, Formo and Fox area targets, along with the continued delineation of broad bulk tonnage mineralization near surface, we are continuing to demonstrate the extensive exploration potential of the district. We look forward to completing a first resource for the Keno Silver project in the second half of 2023 and are also expecting to announce a resource update on our La Plata Project in Colorado in Q2, following the exceptional drill results announced on February 28^th, 2023.”

John Tumazos Virtual Conference

Metallic Minerals will join fellow Metallic Group company, Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE | OTCQB: PGEZF), during John Tumazos’ Very Independent Research virtual conference, with a joint presentation followed by Q&A from 2:15pm – 3:15pm Pacific Time on April 12^th. To register, click here.

Central Keno Hill Silver District

The central part of the Keno Hill Silver District is host to over 100 million ounces of past production and current Indicated resources in shallow deposits that, to date, have not previously seen systematic exploration to depth or along strike. Central Keno was one of the original discovery areas in the region and hosted the historic producing Keno Hill mine, along with eight other high-grade deposits including those on Metallic Minerals land holdings. Metallic Minerals’ work to date in this area shows the presence of a major structural corridor that is comparable in surface expression and structural setting to the +150 million-ounce Bermingham-Calumet system in the extensively explored western part of the district.

Caribou Target Area

The road accessible Caribou target in the central part of the district is one of the most advanced individual targets at the Keno Silver project. Eighty-three (83) drill holes totalling 5,980 m (a 72 m average hole depth), have been drilled since 2008 at Caribou making it the Keno Silver project’s most drilled target area. The Caribou deposit historically produced very high-grade material grading more than 1,000 g/t silver from near surface and is interpreted to be a significant connecting structure between the main shear structures in the Keno Summit structural corridor. The Caribou deposit spatially occurs within a high-level silver-in-soil anomaly of over 10 g/t Ag Eq that extends over 2.5 km long by 1.5 km in width and that remains open to expansion.

Figure 1 – Keno Silver District Geology and Deposits

Mineralization at the Caribou target consists of high-grade, north-striking Ag-Pb-Zn structures with a shallow 34-degree dip. Exploration on the high-grade vein structure has also defined a surrounding envelope of broader bulk tonnage mineralization. These broader zones of mineralization not only include wide veins but also parallel veinlets, stringers and breccia zones. In the 2021 and 2022 drilling of the broader Caribou zone returned intervals up to 34.2 m wide (averaging 18.2 m), with grades between 35.2 g/t Ag Eq and 134 g/t Ag Eq. These wide widths combined with a shallow dip and a near surface environment (deepest intercept is only 120 m from surface), make this bulk tonnage and high-grade mineralization potentially amendable to low cost, bulk tonnage mining methods.

Similarly, the Fox and Formo targets also show broader zones of mineralization that may be amenable to lower cost mining methods, as was successfully demonstrated in the Keno District at the Hector Calumet and Onek deposits by United Keno Hill Mines in the 1980s¹.

Notes to reported values:

Ag equivalent is presented for comparative purposes using conservative long-term metal prices (all USD): $20.0/oz silver (Ag), $1,800/oz gold (Au), $1.00/lb lead (Pb), $1.40/lb zinc (Zn).
Recovered Silver Equivalent in Table 1 is determined as follows: Ag Eq g/t = [Ag g/t x recovery] + [Au g/t x recovery x Au price/ Ag price] + [Pb % / 10,000 x recovery x Pb price / Ag price] + [Zn% / 10,000 x recovery x Zn price / Ag price].
In the above calculations: 1% = 10,000 ppm = 10,000 g/t.
The following recoveries have been assumed for purposes of the above equivalent calculations: 95% for precious metals (Ag/Au) and 90% for all other listed metals, based on recoveries at similar nearby operations.
Intervals are reported as measured drill intersect lengths and may not represent true width.

Recap of 2022 Exploration at the Keno Silver Project

Metallic Minerals completed 3,265 m meters of diamond drilling in 23 holes at the Keno Silver Project during 2022 with the aim of extending advanced-stage “resource-ready” targets in anticipation of an inaugural resource estimate for the project in 2023. Additionally, LiDAR data collection and ground based geophysics were completed to further support project advancement and target generation.

These final Caribou results from drilling during the 2022 field exploration program caps-off what was an exceptional year at the Keno Silver Project with 138 significant intervals of greater than 100 g/t Ag Eq and 22 intervals over 500 g/t Ag Eq drilled within 23 holes. A robust drill program focused on continued resource expansion and to test new targets is being planned for 2023.

Silver Hammer Identifies 15 New Priority Exploration Targets from Recent Geophysical Compilation At its Silver Strand Project

Post author By admin
Post date April 3, 2023

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 3, 2023) – Silver Hammer Mining Corp. (CSE: HAMR) (OTCQB: HAMRF) (FSE: 7BW0) (the “Company” or “Silver Hammer“) is pleased to announce that it has recently completed a property-wide geophysical compilation at its Silver Strand Project in Idaho. Results were very positive and highlighted multiple new priority targets for the Company’s 2023 exploration program.

“Silver Hammer is excited to discover 15 new priority exploration target zones from our recently completed geophysical compilation using data from 2004 to 2022,” commented President & CEO, Peter A. Ball. “Most of the new targets within the property are located in the Revett Formation, which hosts our Silver Strand Mine. The same silver belt is within the renowned Coeur d’Alene mining district in Idaho that has produced over 1.2 billion ounces of silver and is host to some of the world’s largest silver mines. We are currently finalizing our submission of a Plan of Operations to the United States Forest Service, and with the new target zones, we anticipate an active year of exploration at our Silver Strand project.”

Geophysical Compilation Summary

Fifteen moderate to priority exploration target zones were identified from the geophysical surveys. The highest ranked targets are associated with chargeability anomalies and moderate to low conductivity. Most of the targets are located within the Revett Formation, which hosts the Silver Strand Mine.

The targets primarily identified from the Direct Current Induced Polarization (“DCIP“) results are considered moderate to high priority for follow-up, because these areas most closely resemble the responses identified around the Silver Strand Mine. These targets will be scheduled for ground follow-up to investigate the geological sources of the responses, and further geological interpretation of the geophysical surveys may identify further structural information in the data.

Technical Overview

Geophysical Compilation Overview

In 2004, DCIP and Very Low Frequency (“VLF“) surveys were conducted by Lou O’Connor and Minex Exploration for New Jersey Mining Company at the Silver Strand property.
In 2021, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (“UAV“) magnetic survey was completed by MWH Geo-Surveys International Inc.
In 2022, Big Sky Geophysics completed a DCIP survey.

The geophysical compilation and interpretation study was completed by Condor North Consulting ULC. The study was focused on investigating the resistivity and chargeability models along with the magnetic data to determine geophysical responses to help highlight areas of interest on the project area. The 2004 DCIP and VLF survey consisted of 4 line-kilometres (“km”) of surveying over five lines. The DCIP survey used 50 metre (“m”) dipoles in a dipole-dipole electrode configuration. VLF readings were taken along the same lines at 12.5 m intervals using three stations, Jim Creek, Lualualei and Cutler. The 2022 DCIP survey consisted of 4.5 line-km of surveying over 3 lines. A 100 m dipole spacing was used with a dipole-dipole electrode configuration.

“The geophysical results compared to the known geological model appear to highlight key features of the Silver Strand deposit, and have generated some exciting new previously unknown targets,” commented Phil Mulholland, Chief Geologist. “After working on the Silver Strand Project for two years, the geophysical study clearly indicates the potential of the property and provides additional information to execute an aggressive property-wide exploration program.”

The conductivity results in Figure 1 show that the southern half of the survey area is more conductive than the northern half. The strongest conductivity feature runs along the south edge of the 2004 survey area. Several chargeability anomalies are present within the central portion of the surveys, including the Silver Strand Mine.

UAV Magnetic Survey

The UAV magnetic survey was completed from August 3rd to 19th, 2021. A total of 521 line-km was collected with a line spacing of 25 m (MWH, 2021).

The measured magnetic data reveals a small variation in magnitude throughout the survey area. This small range indicates there is a low variation in the magnetic susceptibilities of the underlying rocks. The magnetic data shows several west-northwest trending narrow magnetic highs, predominately along the southwest half of the grid. These highs may indicate the presence of mafic dikes, which is of interest due to the proximity of these dikes to mineralization found in the Silver Strand Mine. These magnetic lineaments are displayed along with faults from geologic maps in Figure 2.

VLF Results

The 2004 VLF data identified several conductors, which corresponded with conductive areas in the DCIP conductivity model. The VLF conductors appear to correlate with magnetic highs to the northeast of the mine area, while the southern conductive trend shows a more variable magnetic response. The two VLF anomalies to the southwest of the mine area are associated with a broad magnetic low.

Target Zones Study

The purpose of this study was to compare DCIP, VLF and UAV magnetic data of a known mineral occurrence located at the Silver Strand Mine. Target zones would have similar geophysical characteristics and may include areas of anomalous conductivity, chargeability and/or susceptibility.

The 50 m draped depth slices from these two products are shown in Figure 3 with the mapped mafic dikes at the mine site shown in black. From these images a chargeability anomaly and low conductivity are located along the western half of the dike location and extending further to the northwest. The conductivity low may be related to silicification observed at the mine site, while the chargeability anomaly is likely caused by disseminated sulphides that are also present at the mine site. These observations indicate that other chargeability anomalies in the survey area, especially where they are coincident with conductivity lows, are of interest for further investigation.

The target zones are based on the DCIP results along with the magnetic trends. The geophysical responses observed in the area of the Silver Strand Mine were used to prioritize the targets.

Lion One Commences High Grade Gold Mining at Tuvatu

Post author By admin
Post date April 3, 2023

North Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 3, 2023) – Lion One Metals Limited (TSXV: LIO) (OTCQX: LOMLF) (ASX: LLO) (“Lion One” or the “Company”) announces a significant milestone at Tuvatu. Initial mining of near-surface, high-grade gold bearing mineralization has commenced from a recently discovered mineralized lode. To date, strike driving along the new lode totals 14 cuts for an estimated 475 tonnes, much of which has already been added to the Company’s mining inventory stockpile. The high-grade inventory stockpile will constitute the initial feed for the Company’s custom-designed-for-purpose processing facility, currently under construction.

New Gold Lode

The new lode was discovered in late 2022, 75 meters into the new development decline, and was subsequently defined by underground mapping, chip-channel sampling, and diamond drilling.

Development along the strike has since been extended by 13m, by way of 7 separate cuts, each cut representing approximately 30 tonnes of material. Vertical development of 9m as a 1.5 x 1.5m rise has been completed, as well as an additional 7 cuts, for a total of approximately 475 tonnes of gold mineralized material, to date. Tuvatu has implemented airleg mining, which allows for flexibility and optionality to deliver low-cost tonnage at minimum mining widths of 1.8m and a rate of advancement of 4m/day.

Several recent drillholes have intersected multiple high grade intercepts. Systematic face sampling provides detailed information that compare favourably with previous drill results.

The material extracted from this drive represents the first modern extraction from the Tuvatu deposit, and as such represents a significant milestone for the company.

Geology

The well-defined structure consists of a quartz vein array with minor to trace pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and bornite, as well as coarse native gold (Figures 4a, b), typically in association with roscoelite. Late carbonate veinlets crosscut the structure. The vein is hosted by monzonite, with well developed symmetric bleached alteration. The highly visible alteration envelope has rendered advancement on this mineralized structure very straight-forward by way of visual identification alone.

The Company utilizes its own fleet of diamond drill rigs, using PQ, HQ and NQ sized drill core rods. Drill core is logged and split by Lion One personnel on site. Samples are delivered to and analyzed at the Company’s geochemical and metallurgical laboratory in Fiji. Duplicates of all samples with grades above 0.5 g/t Au are both re-assayed at Lion One’s lab and delivered to ALS Global Laboratories in Australia (ALS) for check assay determinations. All samples for all high-grade intercepts are sent to ALS for check assays. All samples are pulverized to 85% passing through 75 microns. Gold analysis is carried out using fire assay with an AA finish. Samples that have returned grades greater than 10.00 g/t Au are then re-analyzed by gravimetric method. For samples that return greater than 0.50 g/t Au, repeat fire assay runs are carried out and repeated until a result is obtained that is within 10% of the original fire assay run. Lion One’s laboratory can also assay for a range of 71 other elements through Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES), but currently focuses on a suite of 9 important pathfinder elements. All duplicate anomalous samples are sent to ALS labs in Townsville QLD and are analyzed by the same methods (Au-AA26, and Au-GRA22 where applicable). ALS also analyses 33 pathfinder elements by HF-HNO3-HClO4 acid digestion, HCl leach and ICP-AES (method ME-ICP61).
