During the Quarter White Rock (
RED MOUNTAIN PROJECT, ALASKA
Six new, potentially significant, mineralised massive sulphide targets have been identified in the emerging Last Chance "VMS" camp from the follow-up of stream sediment anomalism during the 2020 field season, and returned promising assays results including:
- Horseshoe (up to 8.3% Zn, 0.3% Pb, 1.1% Cu, 12g/t Ag & 3.6g/t Au).
- Bib (up to 7.3% Zn, 5.1% Pb, 0.3% Cu, 40g/t Ag & 0.3g/t Au).
- Bib West (up to 5.7% Zn, 1.4% Pb & 0.2% Cu)
- Grapple (up to 3.6% Zn, 1.9% Pb, 0.7% Cu & 40g/t Ag).
- Peaches (up to 2.9% Zn, 2.8% Pb, 0.2% Cu, 46g/t Ag & 1.5g/t Au).
- Ringer (up to 1.0% Cu, 26g/t Ag & 0.4g/t Au).
Drilling during the 2021 field season will focus on:
- The potential of the high-grade silver-zinc Dry Creek VMS deposit to grow to a size that could support a standalone development opportunity;
- Drill testing of conductivity targets proximal to the Dry Creek and WTF deposits within the Red Mountain VMS "camp";
- New VMS prospects with outcropping mineralisation not yet drill tested in the emerging Last Chance VMS "camp", and
- Follow-up drill testing at the large Last Chance IRGS/orogenic gold target, with a combination of shallow drilling of surface geochemical anomalies and multi-disciplinary targeting of deeper structural positions likely to offer
