Midland Exploration Launches New Gold Prospecting Campaign
Midland Exploration Inc. (“Midland”) (TSX-V: MD) has embarked on an exciting journey, beginning its prospecting campaign in the Didgeridoo area, part of the Willbob-Kan gold project. This project is wholly owned by Midland and represents a promising exploration venture in the Labrador Trough, renowned for its rich gold mineralization.
Key Highlights
- Recent Acquisition: Midland has recently expanded its portfolio with the acquisition of the Kan gold project, enhancing its footprint in the area.
- Impressive Channel Results: Initial results from the Didgeridoo Zone have indicated a grade of 2.30 g/t Au over 8.95 metres, with exceptionally high intervals reaching 3.56 g/t Au over 3.15 metres.
- Rich Gold Occurrences: The project features numerous known gold occurrences, with grades peaking at 9.8 g/t Au over 13.2 metres from a channel sample, alongside other notable results yielding grades of 8.71 g/t Au and 5.24 g/t Au.
2025 Fieldwork Initiatives
The prospecting activities are set to take place in July and will focus on the Didgeridoo claim block, which has remained dormant since follow-up explorations from gold discoveries made in 2019. Midland is keen to re-engage with this area known for its high potential for gold.
Exploring the Didgeridoo Zone
The Didgeridoo Zone, situated in the southern part of the Willbob-Kan project, boasts a defined shear zone approximately 5 to 10 metres wide, exhibiting a northwest to southeast trend. This zone is characterized by abundant quartz-calcite veins filling faults, surrounded by gabbros and quartz diorites. Observations within this region have uncovered up to six occurrences of visible gold, indicating its rich mineral potential.
In 2018, the channel sampling from the Didgeridoo Zone yielded remarkable results:
- Channel DJ-05: 2.30 g/t Au over 8.95 m, including 3.56 g/t Au over 3.15 m (open to the northwest)
- Channel DJ-02: 4.71 g/t Au over 2.90 m, including 9.30 g/t Au over 1.30 m
- Channel DJ-01: 1.67 g/t Au over 8.80 m (an extension of previous findings in 2017)
- Channel DJ-04: 1.45 g/t Au over 6.70 m
Cautionary Notes
It is important to note that the grades obtained from grab samples are not necessarily indicative of the overall mineralized zones.
Commitment to Quality Control
Midland is committed to rigorous quality control processes. During its last prospecting endeavor, all samples were meticulously taken and analyzed by a certified laboratory, ensuring high standards are upheld. This included implementing a strict QA/QC program with the integration of mineralized standards and blank samples in every set of 20 samples processed. The gold analysis used fire assay methods coupled with atomic absorption finish on 50 grams of material.
