Stone Gold Inc. Announces 4,000 Metre Diamond Drilling Program at Copper Road Project, Batchewana Bay, Ontario
30 March 2022 - 10:00PM
Stone Gold Inc. (TSX-V: STG) ("Stone Gold" or the "Company")
announces that diamond drilling will commence on the Copper Road
Project in mid-April. The Company is fully permitted for up to
4,000 metres of diamond drilling at the company’s 21,000-hectare
Batchewana Bay District located approximately 80 km. north of Sault
St. Marie, Ontario.
The Batchewana Bay District is situated on the
eastern edge of the Late Proterozoic (1050-1115 Ma) Midcontinent
Rift, most of which now lies beneath Lake Superior. The western and
central part of the property (Copper Road) straddles the NNW
trending unconformity between the Mamainse Point Formation to the
west and rocks of the Batchewana Greenstone Belt of the Archean
Superior Province to the east. The Copper Road Project inclusive of
two former copper mines (Coppercorp and Tribag) consists of
Keweenawan Proterozoic volcanic-sedimentary rocks intruded by
multiple mineralized breccia and porphyry bodies and historical
estimates.
The former Tribag Mine (“Bretton Breccia”) was
closed to staking from 1974-2008, in legal dispute from 2008-2016,
has not been drilled in almost 50 years and was never tested for
additional mineralization (Au,Re,Mo,Ag,W) discovered in the area.
The former mine (operated by Teck Resources Limited) produced
approximately 1.2 million tonnes @ 1.5% Cu from 1966-1972.
Stone Gold President/CEO John Timmons comments,
“Our goal is to establish the grade and depth potential of the
Breton and East Breccias at the Tribag Mine Zone, while performing
full spectrum assay analysis to test for additional mineralization
known in the
area.”
The information in this press release has been reviewed and
approved by Dr. Trevor Boyd, P. Geo., and a Qualified Person for

uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing
needed in the future, changes in equity markets, inflation, changes
in exchange rates, fluctuations in commodity prices, delays in the
development of projects, capital and operating costs varying
significantly from estimates and the other risks involved in the
mineral exploration and development industry, and those risks set
out in Stone Gold's public documents filed on SEDAR.
Although Stone Gold believes that the
assumptions and factors used in preparing the forward-looking
information in this news release are reasonable, undue reliance
