Satori Resources Inc. (TSXV: BUD) has commenced a drilling campaign and preliminary work to complete an IP survey at the Tartan Lake project, Flin Flon, Manitoba, Canada.
The first 2,000 m of a 5,000 m drilling campaign has commenced at the McFadden Zone, a 30 m by 40 m stripped shear zone outcrop located 1 kilometre south-east of the known Main Zone deposit.
Drilling at McFadden will precede the 3,000+ metre drill programme planned to further test the Main Zone, the South Zone, and the interpreted new Hanging Wall Zone, which returned the second highest value intercept ever recorded at Tartan Lake at hole TLMZ21-12, intersecting 47.56 g/t Au averaged over 5.8 m, within a wider interval averaging 23.76 g/t Au over 12.6 m.
CEO, Jennifer Boyle, said the vompany plans to drill the Hanging Wall Zone and the Main Zone at greater depths with a drill rig that has deep-drilling capacity. The drilling equipment currently on site has depth capacity for South Zone and McFadden Zone and allows Satori to access McFadden at this time by winter road.
“The McFadden Zone has been on our radar for quite some time. Drilling at McFadden provides Satori with the opportunity to make a potential new discovery outside of the known Main Zone and South Zone deposits.
“We are following up on a historical stripped area with surface expressions of extensive quartz-carbonate-tourmaline veining within a significant shear zone, similar to what we are seeing at Main Zone and South Zone.
“Our recently constructed snow-packed trail system to McFadden has provided more efficient access to four drill pad set-ups, which may have otherwise been more difficult during summer months without helicopter support.”
The company has now completed the first phase of a two-phase 45 line kilometre Induced Polarisation survey. The survey shows several narrow resistive zones and corresponding IP chargeability anomalies that could represent quartz veins within a sulphide enriched shear expression at McFadden.
The survey has also produced several anomalies elsewhere and has generated preliminary targets for drill testing. The grid covers the Main Zone, the South Zone, as well as nearby targets of Ruby Lake, McFadden and N229.
