Marvel Discovery Corp. (TSXV: MARV | Frankfurt: O4T | MARVF: OTCQB) has initiated its summer 2023 surface exploration programme at Gander East in Newfoundland, Canada.
The focus is to complete a till sampling programme over a high priority target associated with north-northeast-trending structures. The target is one of several that were identified in 2022 by magnetic surveys.
This project is a follow up to preliminary prospecting conducted in late 2022, which identified minimal outcrop and well-developed overburden over the target areas. Further refinement of the targets was completed through review and analysis of geophysical data in preparation for the current programme.
“We initially staked this ground based on the structures we had interpreted within open ground, next to New Found Gold, and continual success within the camp is proof positive of the importance of these deep crustal scale features in the role of movement of mineralizing fluids,” commented Marvel CEO, Karim Rayani.
“The structures we have interpreted from our high-resolution airborne magnetic surveys shows several second and third order splays off regional scale fault zones and our focus is the exploration of these highly prospective structural trends.”
Surface work will include till sampling over what the company considers a priority one target associated with the trending structures. Till sample stations will be collected at 150m stations along lines oriented perpendicular to the structures, at 500m line spacing.
The programme was initiated in late August and is anticipated to complete during the month of September. The work is being completed toward exploring the potential for anomalous gold along the structures, and the results from this study will be used to define targets for follow up exploration work.
