Sanatana Provides Further Insight on Recently Completed IP Program at the Oweegee Cu-Au Porphyry Project, BC's Golden Triangle
Vancouver, November 28, 2023 - Sanatana Resources Inc. (TSXV: STA) ("Sanatana" or the "Company") is pleased to provide further details about its recently completed IP (Induced Polarization) geophysical program.
As detailed in our News Release of October 4, 2023, Sanatana identified a large (1k by 2k) buried IP chargeability anomaly at the Oweegee Dome project, located within the famous Golden Triangle of British Columbia. The IP work was contracted to Dias Geophysical using their latest 3D system. It is Sanatana's principal exploration premise that the next wave of mineral exploration successes will come through the application of technology; IP was specifically developed to explore for copper porphyry deposits and is especially effective when the system is "blind" or covered.
A recent example of the application of the Dias 3D system is illustrated by the success of Hercules Silver Corp. with their Hercules project located in Idaho, USA.
Hercules undertook a Dias 3D survey on October 18, 2022, and reported the results on December 15, 2022:

This buried IP anomaly was later drill tested and initial results were reported on October 10, 2023.

Peter Miles, CEO, commented, "we are pleased to see another company using the technology of Dias Geophysical to demonstrate how important a tool IP is in the discovery of "blind" or covered drill targets. It is also important to note that the reason we undertook the IP survey was not only to close off the initial Junction anomaly discovery, but to test our theory that potassicaly altered clasts we saw with visible chalcopyrite in several brecciated drill holes (see our NR of December 19, 2022) were being sourced from a buried deeper zone of the porphyry body that was not outcropping. These are important additional clues that lead us to be very excited about our IP results. We look forward to our 2024 drill program that we are currently planning."
