Tudor Gold Corp. (TSXV: TUD) (Frankfurt: TUC) has identified strong mineralisation in its eighth set of drill results for the 2022 exploration programme at Treaty Creek, located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia.
“Our entire team is very pleased to see the continued success of the exploration programme in the northern-most limits of the Goldstorm Deposit within domain CS600,” President and CEO, Ken Konkin, said.
“We continue to intersect pulses of very strong gold and copper mineralisation with 1.82 g/t AuEQ (1.04 g/t Au, 5.17 g/t Ag and 0.61% Cu) over a 114-m) intercept. Precious and base metal values were equally impressive over double this same intercept averaging 1.50 g/t AuEQ over 235.5 m in hole GS-22-158 and values were comparable to the hole above this, GS-22-151-W1 with 1.27 G/T AuEQ over 300 m.
“GS-22-158 successfully undercut GS-22-151-W1 by approximately 100-150 m and ended in strong copper-gold mineralisation as did GS-22-151-W1. In-fill drilling successfully added confidence with our resource model as GS-22-156 intersected 1.0 g/t AuEQ over 294 m within the 300H domain.
“This intercept was punctuated by a high-grade gold intercept of 28.7 g/t Au and 16.2 g/t Ag (28.9 AuEQ) over 1.5 m near the bottom of the composite. In addition to increasing our deposit foot-print northwards, we were also successful in expanding mineralisation to the southwest with a 100 m step-out drill hole CB-22-01 which intersected significant near-surface gold values over 168 m that averaged 0.68 g/t AuEQ.
“This hole was drilled well outside the area of the 2021 initial resource model for the Goldstorm Deposit demonstrating that mineralisation remains open in all directions and to depth.
“Crews will be wrapping up the exploration programme this week and will be collecting several new composites for metallurgical tests with samples for petrographic and ore microscopy studies from our Stewart-based core facility.
“Our drills have been de-mobilised and both upper and lower camps have been shut down. We have several drill holes awaiting results from the lab and we will announce these results shortly after we receive them.
“The Programme at the Treaty Creek property includes an aggressive resource expansion and delineation plan for several areas, including the Goldstorm Deposit and the Eureka and Calm Before the Storm Zones.
“Results included in this press release are reported from five diamond drill holes that were drilled on the Goldstorm Deposit, Copper Belle Deposit, and Konkin Zones (Sections K, L, 98+50 NE and 94+50 NE). At Goldstorm, one out of two holes were drilled partially or completely outside the 2021 NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate area.”
