Ground Geophysical Survey Work Underway In Ontario
Prosper Gold Corp. (TSXV:PGX) is pleased to announce it has commissioned Abitibi Geophysics Ltd. to complete a 58 line-kilometre Induced Polarisation (IP) survey at the Golden Sidewalk Project in the Birch-Uchi region of Red Lake in Ontario.
CEO, Peter Bernier, said the survey will cover the newly identified Golden Corridor extending the historical IP coverage eastward.
“The company engaged a leading geophysical services company Abitibi Geophysics to extend historical IP coverage eastward at the Golden Corridor focusing on the large pristine gold grain-in-till anomaly outlined by our team,” Mr Bernier said.
“The survey will also cover the E-12 till anomaly which is another target identified in 2020 that has not yet seen follow-up groundwork. E-12 lies three-and-a-half kilometres east along-trend from the Golden Corridor.”
Abitibi Geophysics will be utilising its proprietary OreVision technology which can reveal targets at a greater depth than conventional IP without compromising near-surface resolution. The survey will extend eastward from the Golden Corridor to the E-12 till anomaly. The E-12 anomaly, outlined during Prosper Gold’s northern summer 2020 reconnaissance till survey, is defined as a 1,300 m long gold grain-in-till anomaly that is open to the east and west.
The Golden Sidewalk is a district-scale gold exploration project covering over 160 square kilometres of contiguous mineral claims and mining in the western Birch-Uchi Greenstone Belt, approximately 60 km east of Red Lake, Ontario.
The recently identified “Golden Corridor” lies immediately north of the unconformity in the western portion of the property and is characterised as a highly prospective, greater than five kilometre trend of coincident favourable magnetic and resistivity lineaments supported by highly anomalous gold-in-till samples covering 3.3 by 0.5 kilometres.
