Exciting Drilling Results at the Trapper Gold Target
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Brixton Metals Corporation (TSX-V: BBB, OTCQB: BBBXF) is thrilled to share noteworthy advancements from its drilling campaign at the Trapper Gold Target, located within its wholly owned Thorn Project. This project is located in a strategically promising region of Northwest British Columbia.
Highlighting Noteworthy Results
The recent drill results have been particularly impressive. For instance, Hole THN24-304 recorded a substantial span of 227.50m with an average of 0.50 g/t Au, commencing at a depth of 40.00m. Among the intercepts, several high-grade sections were observed, specifically:
High-Grade Gold Intercepts
1. A significant 82.00m portion grading 1.27 g/t Au
2. Additional intervals included 49.00m of 2.02 g/t Au
3. Plus, high-grade core intervals comprising 27.00m of 3.49 g/t Au, with a standout 2.00m tagged at 44.43 g/t Au. This encapsulates the exciting potential of the Trapper Gold Target.
Understanding the Geological Context
Gold mineralization at the Trapper site is notably linked to structural features along the Lawless Fault. Observations present a northwest-southeast trend with a moderate dip to the north, showcasing a variety of underlying geological formations. The nature of the gold here is associated with base metals, often found alongside galena, sphalerite, and controlled by the volcanic rock structures.
Potential for Future Discoveries
The comprehensive 2024 drill program has spanned 2,745.60m over a series of 11 HQ-sized diamond drill holes. Christina Anstey, Vice President of Exploration, expressed enthusiasm over these high-grade findings, remarking on the sizeable footprint of the mineralization zone, which stretches 600 meters wide across a wider 4km gold geochemical anomaly. This promising horizon holds potential for future exploration and expansion of the Trapper footprint.
Additionally Noteworthy Drilling Information
Even with the success recounted in Hole 304, the subsequent Hole 305 faced challenges and had to be abandoned after the drill rods became lodged. Nevertheless, the findings from Hole 304 significantly bolster the anticipated outcomes of this ongoing drilling campaign.
Future Drilling Plans
Future explorations will continue to focus on the existing gold-bearing zones at Trapper, aiming to expand the known areas of mineralization. The geological team is preparing to delve deeper, incorporating a combination of mapping and geophysics, along with further drilling assays.
