Brixton Metals Corp (TSXV: BBB | OTCQB: BBBXF) has announced further drill results from its 2022 drill programme at the company’s wholly owned Thorn Project located in the Golden Triangle trend of British Columbia. The Project is located within the Taku River Tlingit and Tahltan First Nation’s traditional territory.
Highlights of the drill results include:
- Further drilling at the Trapper Target has yielded numerous visible gold hits
- Hole THN22-206 intercepted 47m of 1.10 g/t Au
- Hole THN22-207 intercepted 47m of 1.06 g/t Au
- Hole THN22-208 intercepted 32m of 1.04 g/t Au
- Hole THN22-209 intercepted 146m of 0.63 g/t Au including 48m of 1.05 g/t Au
Vice president of exploration, Christina Anstey, said, “The Trapper target continues to demonstrate encouraging results within near-surface epithermal style mineralization. The addition of oriented core to our 2022 drill campaign has significantly increased our understanding of the structurally complex discovery which we look forward to testing with additional step out holes.”
A total of approximately 10,665m have been drilled by Brixton Metals this season to date, including 4,919m at the company’s Camp Creek Porphyry target, 3924m at the Trapper target, and 290m at the Metla target. Brixton currently has drills turning at its Camp Creek and Metla targets. To date, field crews have collected 1126 soil samples and 476 surface rock samples for analysis.
This season, extensive mapping, soil sampling, and prospecting has reportedly identified a multikilometer scale alkalic porphyry system in the Metla Target area. Bornite, chalcopyrite, and visible gold have been sampled and alkalic-style porphyry alteration zonation has been mapped on surface.
Brixton has mobilized a drill to test this newly identified surface mineralization. Upon completion of drilling at Metla, the drill will return to the Trapper Target for a phase two drilling.
A third drill is being mobilized to site for the Camp Creek Target drilling. The third drill will be located at significant step-out (200-300m) northwest of THN22-221. Hole THN22-221 at the Camp Creek Target is currently at approximately 1,200m depth, drilling a 275m step-out to the northeast from the collar for holes 184-201 and known porphyry mineralization.
