Sokoman’s Barge Drilling Program Delivers Strong Au Results Moosehead Project, Central Newfoundland
Multiple shallow intercepts including 3.10 m of 100 g/t Au in MH-21-342
ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland and Labrador--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) is pleased to report additional high-grade assays from the Moosehead Project including several barge-based drill holes completed just prior to the Christmas break, which were “super rushed” for metallics assaying at Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, NL.
Assay highlights include:
- MH-21-342 - 5.55 m of 56.58 g/t Au incl. 3.10 m of 100.00 g/t Au from 67.80 m
- MH-21-345 - 4.75 m of 20.75 g/t Au incl. 2.25 m of 39.57 g/t Au from 117.65 m
- MH-21-346 - 9.60 m of 7.33 g/t Au incl. 4.55 m of 12.98 g/t Au from 122.20 m
Also included are drill holes from the 75 Zone which has been extended to the north towards the Main Eastern Trend (MH-21-298), as well as holes from the southern limit of the Eastern Trend (MH-21-259 and MH-21-263) stepping southwards towards the 75 Zone (see attached drill plan). Additional drilling is planned to close the approximately 100 m gap between the two zones. Modelling is suggesting that shallow intercepts in the 75 Zone, including MH-21-298, 17.50 m downhole with 2.30 m at 9.75 g/t in 8.40 m of 3.35 g/t Au, may be a splay off the Eastern Zone and that the 75 Zone actually is the southward extension of the Main Eastern Trend which includes high-grade splays.
The drilling confirms very shallow, high-grade, gold-bearing veins lying in the Main Eastern Trend, as well as in splays or offshoots from it, as shown in an expanded table of results included with this news release. Intersected, downhole, Au values quoted are thought to be 80-90% of true widths.
