MONTRÉAL, Feb. 16, 2022 /CNW
Telbec/ - Genius Metals Inc. (TSXV: GENI) (OTCQB:
GNSMF) ("Genius Metals" or the "Company") is
pleased to report the start of a 500m
winter drilling program on the Trans-Taïga showing at Sakami
located in the James Bay Territory of Québec. The intent is to
assess the extension at depth of the gold mineralization discovered
at surface through rock and channel sampling completed in the
Langelier Complex during previous prospecting campaigns. The
Company reported significant gold mineralization at surface
including a channel sample returning 2.62 g/t Au over 7.40 m (including 14.2 g/t over 1m) and rock samples that yielded up to 6.10 g/t
Au and 1.80 % Cu (see Genius' press-release of November 16th, 2021). The
mineralization occurs in association with rusty/pyritized quartz
veins and veinlets possibly associated with a shear zone in a
tonalitic orthogneiss. The drill core will be transported to
Laurentia Exploration's core shack in Jonquière, Québec where it
will be logged, cut and sent for multi-elements analysis to a
certified laboratory.
The company intends to explore the newly acquired ground in the
Langelier Complex through overburden stripping, extensive rock grab
and channel sampling and soil/till geochemistry during the upcoming
summer. A high-resolution heliborne MAG survey was recently
completed over the new claims.
