Sable Resources Completes VTEM Geophysical Survey
Sable Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SAE | OTCQB:SBLRF) has exciting news to share! The company has successfully completed a VTEM time-domain geophysical survey at its Copper Queen project. This survey is a crucial step in Sable's commitment to exploring and understanding the potential of this promising property.
Survey Overview and Main Findings
The extensive survey covered a remarkable 535 line-kilometers focusing on two significant targets, Breccias 1-2-3 and Roof. Additionally, it extended into the Breccia 4 target area, providing essential data about the subsurface geology. The results have shown interesting conductive and magnetic features at depth just beneath Breccias 1, 2, and near Breccia 3. These observations suggest a possible connection to concealed porphyry centers lurking below the surface.
Interestingly, the data from the survey indicates that the copper-bearing magmatic-hydrothermal breccias visible on the surface actually illustrate magnetic anomalies that might hint at larger systems at depth. Furthermore, two notable conductivity anomalies emerged, located east of the Roof mineralized zone and between Roof and Breccias 1-2-3. These areas are largely unexplored, and a preliminary field review is penciled in for late August to further investigate these anomalies.
Insights from Dr. Ruben Padilla
Dr. Ruben Padilla, the President and CEO of Sable, expressed enthusiasm about the survey results. He stated, “The results of the VTEM survey will be key for the ongoing exploration work at Copper Queen. The geophysics support our initial idea of two different mineralization styles: outcropping Cu-bearing magmatic-hydrothermal breccias and a potential blind Cu porphyry connected to the breccias at depth.” His insights affirm the importance of this project and its potential for discovering valuable mineral resources.
Sample Preparation and Analysis
Sample preparation for the Copper Queen project is handled at ALS Minerals in Kamloops, ensuring high-quality analysis. Samples undergo rigorous processes, including drying, crushing, splitting, and pulverizing. The analytical methods used provide a comprehensive breakdown of numerous elements, essential for understanding the mineral content in the samples collected. Control measures are strictly followed to maintain the integrity of the data, ensuring reliable results that can guide further exploration efforts.
The Copper Queen Project's Potential
Located in central western British Columbia, the Copper Queen project stretches over a substantial area of 15,133 hectares. Historical exploration by Anaconda American Brass unveiled the existence of mineralized breccias and porphyries, setting the stage for Sable's current work. Past drilling attempts indicated copper grades ranging from 0.2 to 0.3% over various intervals. Despite limited exploration since, Sable has revitalized interest in this site, initially staked in May and significantly expanded thereafter.
Sable Resources: A Commitment to Discovery
Sable Resources is not just focused on the Copper Queen project; it’s a committed grassroots explorer embarking on the quest to uncover Tier-One precious metal and copper projects. The company actively explores other notable projects in Argentina, alongside its Canadian endeavors, showcasing a robust portfolio aimed at delivering value through systematic exploration in mining-friendly regions.
