Troubadour Resources Inc. Provides Update on Status of Drill Results for Texas Gold Project
Drill Result Update
All of the core samples from the Company's 2,090m phase 1 drill program are now at the analytical lab and being processed. Results are expected to be received in the next few weeks and will be released once received and compiled by Troubadour's geological team. The phase 1 drilling focused on the area of the Doorn and Cabin targets where exceptional grades were encountered in surface rock sampling.
Next Steps
The Company will be mobilizing a geological crew to the Texas project in the coming weeks to extend the known geophysical and geochemical corridor between the Doorn and Cabin targets. Work will focus on soil and rock sampling and a ground magnetometer survey to the north of the Cabin and south of the Doorn to extend data coverage and refine drill targeting in advance of a phase 2 drill program. The Doorn and Cabin remain the primary focus for the Company's exploration efforts.
"As we eagerly await results from phase 1 drilling, we are excited to get crews back to the Texas to complete necessary field work in advance of a phase 2 drill program. Extending the Cabin and Doorn targets will remain our primary focus in our upcoming phase 2 drilling," states Geoff Schellenberg, Company President.
About the Texas Project
The road accessible Texas property covers historical mineral showings and is located 3 km southwest of the town of Beaverdell and in close proximity to the past producing Beaverdell Mine1 that was in operation from 1896 to 1991. The property covers ground prospective for vein hosted and bulk tonnage precious metal deposits, based on at least seven historical and newly discovered gold occurrences on the property and geological comparisons with the nearby Beaverdell Mine1. Several showings are present on the property, including two old mines and many older trenches, pits and adits that expose mineralized veins. The Beaverdell mining camp is predominately known for its silver production and the presence of high-grade gold occurrences makes the Texas property unique and significantly more attractive.
- Referenced nearby historic resources, deposits and mines provide geologic context for the Project, but are not necessarily indicative that the Project hosts similar potential, size or grades of mineralization.
