Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 1, 2021) – Chakana Copper Corp. (TSXV: PERU) (OTCQB: CHKKF) (FSE: 1ZX) (the Company or Chakana“), is pleased to provide results from twelve resource definition holes drilled in Huancarama totaling 2,974.85m at the Soledad project, Ancash, Peru (see table below). The resource drilling is part of a fully funded 26,000m exploration and resource drilling program planned for 2021 (Fig. 1). These results compliment previous results from Huancarama and will increase confidence in the initial resource estimate covering six breccia pipes, which is anticipated to be completed by the end of 2021.

“Results for the resource definition drilling at Huancarama have been outstanding thus far. This is a large breccia pipe that is part of a much larger breccia complex. The resource drilling has focused on the east side of the breccia complex where two breccia pipes coalesce into one larger pipe with excellent grades for copper, gold, and silver. We have additional resource definition drill results to release for Bx 5 and Huancarama as we close in on the first resource ever for this new discovery,” stated President and CEO David Kelley.

No adjustments were made for recovery as the project is an early-stage exploration project and metallurgical data to allow for estimation of recoveries are not yet available. The formulas utilized to calculate equivalent values are Cu-eq (%) = Cu% + (Au g/t * 0.6556) + (Ag g/t * 0.00857) and Au-eq (g/t) = Au g/t + (Cu% * 1.5296) + (Ag g/t * 0.01307).

Huancarama

The Huancarama breccia pipe is in the central part of the project at an elevation of 3,950m and is one of six breccia pipes that will be included in our initial resource estimate (Fig. 1). The breccia pipe is part of a breccia complex with six outcropping breccias over a lateral distance of 200m east-west. Two of the breccias, separated by 50m at surface, coalesce at depth, forming a large breccia pipe approximately 100m x 60m in plan. Breccia has been intercepted to a depth of 492m below surface and remains open.

Drill holes described in this release were drilled from four different platforms and were designed to confirm the geometry and continuity of mineralization within the breccia pipe (Figs. 2 and 3). All holes intersected significant mineralization (see Figure 4 for select core photos of the mineralization). Thirteen additional holes have been drilled as part of the resource definition program; results for these holes are pending.

2021 Resource and Exploration Drill Program

A total of 23,947m (incorrectly reported in previous release) of drilling has been completed in 2021. The objectives of this drill program are to complete resource definition drilling on six initial breccia pipes to an approximate depth of 300m and test several new exploration targets. Breccia pipes that will be included in the initial resource estimate are: Bx 1, Bx 5, Bx 6, Paloma East, Paloma West, and Huancarama (Fig. 1). Additional resource definition drill results for Bx 5 and Huancarama are pending. During 2021 our drilling was focused on the north half of the project where drill permits are in place. Permitting for the south half of the project is well advanced. The southern half of the property hosts several outcropping mineralized tourmaline breccia pipes and has been recently covered by the Company’s ongoing geophysical program. Numerous targets exist, none of which have been drilled previously.

Geophysical Surveys

Gradient-array induced-polarization (IP) surveys have been completed over the entire 12km2 footprint of the Soledad mineral system. Off-set IP surveys are now in-progress covering high priority target areas. This work complements the extensive exploration database that supports our current inventory of 110 exploration targets. This new information identifies both new targets and prioritizes existing targets that will be tested when the exploration drilling programs resume.

Release – Palladium One Reports Four New EM Targets at the Tyko Sulphide Copper- Nickel Project Ontario, Canada


Palladium One Reports Four New EM Targets at the Tyko Sulphide Copper- Nickel Project, Ontario, Canada

 

  • Four significant, multi-line, Electromagnetic (“EM”) anomalies have been identified by a 3,100 line-kilometer Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne (“VTEMmax”) survey conducted during the summer field program.
  • Several single line EM anomalies were also identified.
  • The first EM anomalies identified in the large mafic-ultramafic Bulldozer Intrusion.

October 28, 2021 – Toronto, Ontario – Preliminary results of the recently completed VTEMmax airborne survey have identified four significant multi-line EM anomalies on the Tyko Copper-Nickel Project, said Palladium One Mining (“Palladium One” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PDM, FRA: 7N11, OTC: NKORF) today.

Derrick Weyrauch, President and CEO “We now have four new multi-line EM anomalies to test, which supports our belief that there are multiple Smoke Lake-type zones yet to be discovered. Of particular interest are two anomalies in the Bulldozer Intrusion. These are the first EM anomalies identified in this large mafic-ultramafic intrusion and hint at potentially large tonnage targets.We are very pleased with these regional results and are awaiting results from the Smoke Lake zone.”

The recently completed 100-meter spaced 3,100 line-kilometer VTEMmax survey is the largest and most sensitive EM survey ever flow on the Tyko Project (Figure 1). The survey easily detected the at surface high-grade Smoke Lake zone producing a 600m (7 lines) EM anomaly (Figure 2). In addition, a weak single line EM anomaly successfully detected the RJ zone, this is noteworthy as the RJ zone hosts blebby to locally net textured sulphide and had not been detected by three previous airborne EM surveys. This speaks to the sensitivity of the VTEMmax system and its potential to identify targets that were missed by less sensitive historic EM surveys.

Bedrock Conductor Picks

The EM anomalies presented below are bedrock conductors selected by Platform Geoscience Ltd. These represent preliminary interpretations based of the response recorded on each VTEMmax flight line. The difference between strong, moderate and weak conductors is not only a measure of massive vs semi-massive vs net-textured sulphide, but also depth where a weak EM response may simply indicate a deeper stronger conductor, whereas a smaller at surface conductor will have a stronger EM response.

The four new multiline EM anomalies are in new areas with no previously known mineralization or drilling, and are described below:

West Pickle Lake Anomaly

A 600-meter multi-line anomaly is located 2.5 kilometers west of the RJ zone and may represent an extension of the RJ zone. The RJ zone consists of blebby, locally net-textured magmatic sulphide and has returned up to 1.04 % Ni and 0.23% Cu over 16.2 meters in hole TK16-002 (see news release April 12, 2016).

Bulldozer South Anomaly

The composite anomaly consists of two clusters which combined are over 800-meters in length. This anomaly is noteworthy as there is a historic anomalous prospecting sample collected in the vicinity, which returned 0.23% Cu with anomalous nickel (144 ppm) and palladium (18 ppb) in melanogabbro, with 5% finely disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite (see Ontario Mineral Deposit Index MDI000000001913). This anomaly also correlates with a very strong magnetic portion of the Bulldozer Intrusion suggesting ultramafic rocks may be present at depth.

Bulldozer North Anomaly

This 200-meter multi-line anomaly is noteworthy as one line contains a strong EM anomaly which is comparable in intensity to the anomalies detected over the Smoke Lake zone. The Bulldozer North, like Bulldozer South anomalies correlate with a very strongly magnetic portion of the Bulldozer Intrusion, potentially representing ultramafic rocks.

The Bulldozer North and South Anomalies represent the first EM anomalies detected within the large mafic-ultramafic Bulldozer Intrusion. The Bulldozer intrusion is host to one historic copper-nickel-cobalt showing, which consists of remobilized disseminated chalcopyrite and pyrite in a shear, suggesting that more widespread copper-nickel-cobalt mineralization may occur within the larger intrusion. Sampling by the Company in 2019 at the historic Bulldozer showing returned 0.91% Cu, 0.05% Ni, and 0.05% Co (see press release January 21, 2020) with historic samples returning up to 3.34% Cu, 0.12% Ni, 0.24% Co, 0.38 g/t Pd, 0.08 g/t Pt (see Ontario Mineral Deposit Index MDI000000001901).

Cupa Lake Anomaly

This anomaly consists of a cluster of two multi-line anomalies which when combined cover 400 meters of strike length. These anomalies are present in an area where previous mapping by the Ontario Geological survey has identified metasediments and mafic volcanics representing remnants of greenstone belt material within the Black Pic tonalite batholith, and hence may represent favourable conditions for the perseveration of magmatic copper-nickel sulphide mineralization similar to the Smoke Lake zone, located only 8-kilometers to the west.

Summer Smoke Lake Drill Program

The resumed Phase II drill program at Smoke Lake completed an additional 1,973 meters in 9 holes, assay results are pending. The program included an 800-meter deep hole targeting a large inverted magnetic high located below the Smoke Lake zone. This deep hole was drilled for geophysical surveying and was surveyed by Borehole Electromagnetics (“BHEM”) to help determine the possible presents of massive sulphide mineralization at depth, results are pending. The Company intends to drill additional holes into the inverted magnetic high where it outcrops east of Smoke Lake. An Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey is also planed for the Smoke Lake area to target potential for disseminated Ni-Cu mineralization.

Summer Field Program

Mapping, prospecting, soil sampling, and trenching was completed over the Tyko Project, including the four new high priority multi-line EM anomalies. A total of 1,340 soil samples were collected, results are pending.

*Nickel Equivalent (“Ni_Eq”)

Nickel and copper equivalent is calculated using US$1,600 per ounce for palladium, US$1,100 per ounce for platinum, US$1,650 per ounce for gold, US$3.50 per pound for copper, US$7.50 per pound for nickel and US$20 per pound for Cobalt. This calculation is consistent with the commodity prices used in the Company’s September 2021 NI 43-101 Haukiaho resource estimate.

QA/QC

The Phase II drilling program was carried out under the supervision of Neil Pettigrew, M.Sc., P. Geo., Vice President of Exploration and a director of the Company.

Drill core samples were split using a rock saw by Company staff, with half retained in the core box. The drill core samples were transported by company staff the Company’s core handling facility, to Actlabs laboratory in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Actlabs, is an accredited lab and are ISO compliant (ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 17025:2017). PGE analysis was performed using a 30 grams fire assay with an ICP-MS or ICP-OES finish. Multi-element analyses, including copper and nickel were analysed by four acid digestion using 0.5 grams with an ICP-MS or ICP-OES finish.

Certified standards, blanks and crushed duplicates are placed in the sample stream at a rate of one QA/QC sample per 10 core samples. Results are analyzed for acceptance at the time of import. All standards associated with the results in this press release were determined to be acceptable within the defined limits of the standard used

October 28, 2021 – Toronto, Ontario – Preliminary results of the recently completed VTEMmax airborne survey have identified four significant multi-line EM anomalies on the Tyko Copper-Nickel Project, said Palladium One Mining (“Palladium One” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PDM, FRA: 7N11, OTC: NKORF) today.

Derrick Weyrauch, President and CEO “We now have four new multi-line EM anomalies to test, which supports our belief that there are multiple Smoke Lake-type zones yet to be discovered. Of particular interest are two anomalies in the Bulldozer Intrusion. These are the first EM anomalies identified in this large mafic-ultramafic intrusion and hint at potentially large tonnage targets.We are very pleased with these regional results and are awaiting results from the Smoke Lake zone.”

The recently completed 100-meter spaced 3,100 line-kilometer VTEMmax survey is the largest and most sensitive EM survey ever flow on the Tyko Project (Figure 1). The survey easily detected the at surface high-grade Smoke Lake zone producing a 600m (7 lines) EM anomaly (Figure 2). In addition, a weak single line EM anomaly successfully detected the RJ zone, this is noteworthy as the RJ zone hosts blebby to locally net textured sulphide and had not been detected by three previous airborne EM surveys. This speaks to the sensitivity of the VTEMmax system and its potential to identify targets that were missed by less sensitive historic EM surveys.

Bedrock Conductor Picks

The EM anomalies presented below are bedrock conductors selected by Platform Geoscience Ltd. These represent preliminary interpretations based of the response recorded on each VTEMmax flight line. The difference between strong, moderate and weak conductors is not only a measure of massive vs semi-massive vs net-textured sulphide, but also depth where a weak EM response may simply indicate a deeper stronger conductor, whereas a smaller at surface conductor will have a stronger EM response.

The four new multiline EM anomalies are in new areas with no previously known mineralization or drilling, and are described below:

West Pickle Lake Anomaly

A 600-meter multi-line anomaly is located 2.5 kilometers west of the RJ zone and may represent an extension of the RJ zone. The RJ zone consists of blebby, locally net-textured magmatic sulphide and has returned up to 1.04 % Ni and 0.23% Cu over 16.2 meters in hole TK16-002 (see news release April 12, 2016).

Bulldozer South Anomaly

The composite anomaly consists of two clusters which combined are over 800-meters in length. This anomaly is noteworthy as there is a historic anomalous prospecting sample collected in the vicinity, which returned 0.23% Cu with anomalous nickel (144 ppm) and palladium (18 ppb) in melanogabbro, with 5% finely disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite (see Ontario Mineral Deposit Index MDI000000001913). This anomaly also correlates with a very strong magnetic portion of the Bulldozer Intrusion suggesting ultramafic rocks may be present at depth.

Bulldozer North Anomaly

This 200-meter multi-line anomaly is noteworthy as one line contains a strong EM anomaly which is comparable in intensity to the anomalies detected over the Smoke Lake zone. The Bulldozer North, like Bulldozer South anomalies correlate with a very strongly magnetic portion of the Bulldozer Intrusion, potentially representing ultramafic rocks.

The Bulldozer North and South Anomalies represent the first EM anomalies detected within the large mafic-ultramafic Bulldozer Intrusion. The Bulldozer intrusion is host to one historic copper-nickel-cobalt showing, which consists of remobilized disseminated chalcopyrite and pyrite in a shear, suggesting that more widespread copper-nickel-cobalt mineralization may occur within the larger intrusion. Sampling by the Company in 2019 at the historic Bulldozer showing returned 0.91% Cu, 0.05% Ni, and 0.05% Co (see press release January 21, 2020) with historic samples returning up to 3.34% Cu, 0.12% Ni, 0.24% Co, 0.38 g/t Pd, 0.08 g/t Pt (see Ontario Mineral Deposit Index MDI000000001901).

Cupa Lake Anomaly

This anomaly consists of a cluster of two multi-line anomalies which when combined cover 400 meters of strike length. These anomalies are present in an area where previous mapping by the Ontario Geological survey has identified metasediments and mafic volcanics representing remnants of greenstone belt material within the Black Pic tonalite batholith, and hence may represent favourable conditions for the perseveration of magmatic copper-nickel sulphide mineralization similar to the Smoke Lake zone, located only 8-kilometers to the west.

Summer Smoke Lake Drill Program

The resumed Phase II drill program at Smoke Lake completed an additional 1,973 meters in 9 holes, assay results are pending. The program included an 800-meter deep hole targeting a large inverted magnetic high located below the Smoke Lake zone. This deep hole was drilled for geophysical surveying and was surveyed by Borehole Electromagnetics (“BHEM”) to help determine the possible presents of massive sulphide mineralization at depth, results are pending. The Company intends to drill additional holes into the inverted magnetic high where it outcrops east of Smoke Lake. An Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey is also planed for the Smoke Lake area to target potential for disseminated Ni-Cu mineralization.

Summer Field Program

Mapping, prospecting, soil sampling, and trenching was completed over the Tyko Project, including the four new high priority multi-line EM anomalies. A total of 1,340 soil samples were collected, results are pending.

Release – Great Bear Reports 95.2% to 99.2% Gold Recoveries in Preliminary LP Fault Metallurgical Tests


Great Bear Reports 95.2% to 99.2% Gold Recoveries in Preliminary LP Fault Metallurgical Tests – Gold is Free Milling and Readily Soluble at All Grades

October 25, 2021
– Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
– Great Bear Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Great Bear”, TSX-V: GBR; OTCQX: GTBAF) today reported gold recovery test results from its 100% owned flagship Dixie Project, in the Red Lake district of Ontario.

Chris Taylor, President and CEO of Great Bear said, “We selected what were anticipated to be the ‘most difficult’ mineralized domains to extract gold from at the LP Fault, and are pleased to report very high gold recoveries at all grades.  This has strong positive implications for the future development potential of the Dixie project.  Similar very high gold recoveries from the Dixie Limb and Hinge zones using comparable grinding and cyanidation protocols indicates mineralized material
from all gold zones is likely amenable to processing through the same
extraction circuits
.  Initial LP Fault cyanidation gold recovery tests confirm that non-refractory,
free gold
dominates all low to high-grade domains tested to-date.  All Dixie gold zones have excellent potential for significant gravity circuit gold recoveries, which will be investigated in the next phase of metallurgical testing.”

Highlights of Gold
Recovery Results

Ten one kilogram representative samples were analyzed at Blue Coast Research Ltd. (“Blue Coast”) of Parksville, British Columbia (Table 1).  Samples were composited from 10 to 13 metre long core intervals and were processed through a standard 48 hour bottle roll procedure at 40% solids, using a 1.0 g/L sodium cyanide solution.

  • All tested combinations of
    grades, host rocks, sulphide content and alteration styles recovered a
    very high percentage of total gold, within a four percent range from 95.2%
    to 99.2%.
      While high-grade gold samples recovered the highest percentage of total gold during cyanidation, sub-gram low-grade gold mineralization nonetheless achieved excellent recoveries of greater than 95 percent.  Table
    2
    and Figure
    1
    .
  • LP Fault gold mineralization is
    not refractory. 
    All samples, regardless of grade, were described as “free-milling”, indicating gold is not encapsulated in sulphide accessory minerals.  Free gold mineralization has repeatedly been observed and reported by Great Bear, including during petrographic/microscope analysis (see news release of September 22, 2020).

Ongoing Metallurgical Testing
The samples reported here represent the most
mineralogically complex
intervals drilled to date at the LP Fault and have higher accessory sulphide content than the zone’s average.  In most gold deposits, zones with higher sulphide content have lower gold recoveries than zones with lower sulphide content.

  • Accessory sulphide content had
    no measurable effect on gold recoveries
    , confirming that gold is not present within sulphide mineral crystal structures.
  • Autoclave processing will not
    be required
    for LP Fault mineralized material.

Additional gold recovery testing of low-sulphide material is now also
underway, which is expected to yield comparable high gold recoveries
.

  • Great Bear management notes that current cyanidation gold recovery results are in line with the high reported operational gold recoveries at mines in the Red Lake district, which generally recover +90%.
  • Ongoing testing also includes “gold-only” LP Fault mineralization such as that observed within high-grade intervals in LP Fault discovery drill hole DNW-011 (see news release of May 28, 2019) where gold is observed without significant accessory sulphides in many samples.   In most gold deposits, gold-only mineralization yields the highest gold recoveries.

Gravity gold recovery circuits are important, low-cost components of many gold processing operations.  Due to the free gold character of all grade ranges of LP Fault mineralization, the mineralized material is expected
to be amenable to gravity-based gold separation
.  Gravity amenability is currently being tested by Great Bear.

Results of ongoing metallurgical testing will be reported periodically as completed through 2022.

Gold recoveries from the
Hinge and Dixie Limb zones
were originally disclosed by the Company on November 12, 2020 and January 27, 2021, and are provided in Table 3.

About the Dixie Project

The 100% owned flagship Dixie project boasts one of the largest recent gold discoveries in a Canadian mining jurisdiction.  Proximal to major infrastructure near the town of Red Lake, Ontario, the Dixie property comprises over 91.4 square kilometres of contiguous claims that extend over 22 kilometres with a paved highway and provincial power and natural gas lines.  The property also hosts a network of well-maintained logging roads which facilitate access.

The 23 high-grade domains discussed in this release are structurally and geologically distinctive from the surrounding lower grade, bulk tonnage style gold mineralization.  Together, they span a strike length of 4.2 kilometres and occur within larger stratigraphically controlled lower grade domains.  They are characterized by high degrees of strain and/or transposed quartz vein zones following two distinct structural fabrics and  transition from upper greenschist to lower amphibolite facies metamorphism.  Gold in the high-grade domains is generally observed as free gold, is often transposed into, and overgrows the dominant structural fabrics, and is higher-grade on average than the surrounding bulk tonnage gold zones.

To date, Great Bear has completed a total of 672 drill holes, identifying three high-grade gold discoveries.  The most significant discovery is the large-scale “LP Fault” zone, which comprises high-grade disseminated gold mineralization within broad moderate-to-lower-grade envelopes in felsic volcanic and sediment units.  LP Fault drilling has identified gold mineralization along 11 kilometres of strike length to date, and a detailed drill grid is being completed along approximately 4 kilometres of strike length.  The nearby “Hinge” and “Limb” gold zones are more characteristic of the renowned Red Lake mined deposits, comprising gold-bearing quartz veins and silica-sulphide replacement zones hosted by mafic volcanic units.  Over 80% of the Company’s drill holes into the LP Fault, Dixie Limb and Hinge zones contain visible gold mineralization.  Gold occurs mainly as free gold, neither bound to nor within sulphide minerals.

Great Bear adheres to industry-leading quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) practices in data collection, analysis and disclosure, and detailed assays including all historical LP Fault drill hole data are available on the Company’s website at https://greatbearresources.ca/projects/overview/dixie-project-data/.

About Great Bear

Great Bear Resources Ltd. is a Vancouver-based gold exploration company focused on advancing its 100% owned Dixie project in Northwestern Ontario, Canada.  A significant exploration drill program is currently underway to define the mineralization within a large-scale, high-grade disseminated gold discovery made in 2019, the LP Fault.  Additional exploration drilling is also in progress to expand and infill nearby high-grade gold zones, as well as to test new regional targets.  The Company is currently in the process of compiling all historical data together with incoming assay results, with the goal of publishing an initial NI 43-101 compliant multi-million ounce mineral resource estimate for the Dixie project in early 2022. 

Great Bear is a committed partner to all stakeholders, with a long-term vision of sustainable exploration to advance the Dixie project in a manner that demonstrates good stewardship of land, operational excellence and accountability.

QA/QC and Core Sampling
Protocols

Drill core is logged and sampled in a secure core storage facility located in Red Lake Ontario.  Core samples from the program are cut in half, using a diamond cutting saw, and are sent to Activation Laboratories in Ontario, an accredited mineral analysis laboratory, for analysis. All samples are analysed for gold using standard Fire Assay-AA techniques. Samples returning over 10.0 g/t gold are analysed utilizing standard Fire Assay-Gravimetric methods.  Pulps from approximately 5% of the gold mineralized samples are submitted for check analysis to a second lab.  Selected samples are also chosen for duplicate assay from the coarse reject of the original sample.  Selected samples with visible gold are also analyzed with a standard 1 kg metallic screen fire assay.  Certified gold reference standards, blanks and field duplicates are routinely inserted into the sample stream, as part of Great Bear’s quality control/quality assurance program (QAQC).  No QAQC issues were noted with the results reported herein.

About FenixOro Gold Corp.

FenixOro Gold Corp is a Canadian company focused on acquiring and exploring gold projects with world class exploration potential in the most prolific gold producing regions of Colombia. FenixOro’s flagship property, the Abriaqui project, is the closest project to Continental Gold’s Buritica project. It is located 15 km to the west in Antioquia State at the northern end of the Mid-Cauca gold belt, a geological trend which has seen multiple large gold discoveries in the past 10 years including Buritica and Anglo Gold’s Nuevo Chaquiro and La Colosa. As documented in “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Abriaqui project Antioquia State, Colombia” (December 5, 2019), the geological characteristics of Abriaqui and Buritica are similar. Since the preparation of this report a Phase 1 drilling program has been completed at Abriaqui resulting in a significant discovery of a high grade, “Buritica style” gold deposit. A Phase 2 drilling program has recently commenced.

FenixOro’s VP of Exploration, Stuart Moller, led the discovery team at Buritica for Continental Gold in 2007-2011. At the time of its latest public report, the Buritica Mine contains measured plus indicated resources of 5.32 million ounces of gold (16.02 Mt grading 10.32 g/t) plus a 6.02 million ounce inferred resource (21.87 Mt grading 8.56 g/t) for a total of 11.34 million ounces of gold resources Buritica began formal production in November 2020 and has expected annual average production of 250,000 ounces at an all-in sustaining cost of approximately US$600 per ounce. Resources, cost and production data are taken from Continental Gold’s “NI 43-101 Buritica Mineral Resource 2019-01, Antioquia, Colombia, 18 March, 2019”). Continental Gold was recently the subject of a takeover by Zijin Mining in an all-cash transaction valued at C$1.4 billion.
