Targa Exploration Strengthens Drilling Initiatives
CSE: TEX | OTCQB: TRGEF | FRA: V6Y
Overview of the Drill Expansion
Targa Exploration Corp. has recently unveiled plans to expand its diamond drilling program at the Opinaca Gold Project. This initiative aims to enhance the potential for gold discoveries at the site.
Highlights of the Drilling Program
As part of the ongoing drilling efforts, significant progress has been reported. The company has completed 2,513 meters of drilling across five drill holes. Notably, this drilling is ahead of schedule and remains under budget.
Key Accomplishments
The company has officially approved an increase in the drilling program from 2,500 meters to 3,250 meters, facilitating the exploration of additional areas of interest.
Remarks from Company Leadership
According to Cameron Tymstra, CEO of Targa Exploration, "Drilling at Opinaca has been progressing exceptionally well. With five drill holes already finished, we are ahead of expectations. The efficient work by our partners allows us to broaden our drilling plans without exceeding our budget. Our objective is to identify the specific bedrock lithology units that contain gold across the expansive area of till cover. The more we drill, the better our chances are for discovery, and we've already found numerous mineralized rock units with significant indicators such as pyrite, pyrrhotite, and arsenopyrite."
Details of the Expanded Drill Program
The revised drill program involves extending the initial approach from 2,500 meters and is set for completion shortly. The first five drill holes have been executed with great efficiency, and Targa plans to add extra holes to capitalize on its findings so far.
New Drilling Strategy
The sixth hole has been repositioned to target promising areas identified from previous work, with a planned depth of 575 meters, situated where multiple gold-bearing boulders were discovered recently. Additionally, a seventh hole will aim for a depth of 525 meters to assess a quartz-rich meta-arenite unit that was observed previously. Should time and budget allow, an eighth hole might be added to explore further geological structures.
Mineralization Insights
Further exploration has unearthed several noteworthy mineralized intervals across the drill sites. Notably, Hole #2 and Hole #3 have shown sections of metawacke with intriguing textures and mineral compositions, contributing to the quest for gold. Sample results from core testing are anticipated by mid to late November.
About the Opinaca Gold Project
The Opinaca Gold Project, spanning over an extensive area, includes features typical to the James Bay region, known for its geological richness. The project covers over 85,267 hectares, and recent geological assessments have identified a significant 7 km-long gold target based on earlier sampling efforts that pointed towards promising gold values.
The Company’s Vision
Targa Exploration Corp. operates with a vision focused on exploration and development of gold mineral properties. With its headquarters located in Vancouver, the firm places significant emphasis on identifying high-value exploration opportunities. The company is keen on expanding its footprint further based on the results from the drilling efforts at Opinaca.
