Triumph Gold Announces Completion of Exploration Drilling at the Freegold Mountain Project, Yukon
08 September 2021 - 10:00PM
Triumph Gold Corp. (TSX-V: TIG | OTCMKTS: TIGCF)
(“Triumph Gold” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the
completion of a 19 hole, 6,615 metre diamond drilling program (“the
Program”) focused on the Nucleus and Revenue areas of the Freegold
Mountain Project (“the Project”) located in Yukon, Canada (Figure
1). All of the drill core has been cut, sampled, and submitted to
ALS Global for analysis. Final assay results are expected to return
in regular batches throughout September and October.
Initial highlights of the Program include:
-
Confirmation of two styles of overlapping mineralization forming
the Nucleus gold-silver-copper deposit with flat-lying skarn
mineralization cut by epithermal mineralization associated with
steeply-dipping fault zones within schists and gneiss of Yukon
Tanana Terrane (“YTT”) and felsic intrusive rocks (Photos 1 and
2).
-
Intersection of sulphide-replacement and epithermal mineralization
proximal to the regional South Big Creek Fault within YTT and
felsic intrusive rocks in step-out drilling south of the Nucleus
gold-silver-copper Deposit (Photo 3). New mineralization was also
intersected southeast of the Nucleus resource area (Photo 4).
-
Expansion of porphyry-related and epithermal mineralization at the
WAu and Blue Sky Zones hosted in the Revenue
gold-silver-copper-molybdenum-tungsten Deposit (Photo 5). Drilling
also expanded a zone of porphyry-style mineralization proximal to
the southern contact of the WAu Zone. (Photo 6).
Additional exploration activities have advanced
mineral prospects on the Freegold Mountain Project outside of the
Nucleus and Revenue Deposit areas. This portion of the 2021
exploration season is ongoing and includes geological mapping and
prospecting, 37 line-kilometres of soil geochemical surveying, 100
line-kilometres of ground magnetic surveying, and 6 line-kilometres
of HLEM surveying, all of which are expected to be completed by
mid-September.
“Triumph Gold has used improved deposit and
geophysical modeling along with AI vectoring to identify and target
underexplored areas of the Freegold Mountain Project. We are very
excited to receive assay results to confirm drillcore observations
from all areas, including newly identified mineralization
intersected south and east of Nucleus.” says Jesse Halle, VP
Exploration for Triumph Gold. Halle adds “Work on our pipeline
prospects is ongoing and preliminary results from these efforts are
very encouraging.”
