2022 Drill Program Commences At Seventymile Gold Project
VANCOUVER - Tectonic Metals Inc. announced that drilling has kicked off on the Seventymile Gold Project, an underexplored >40 kilometer (km) long late Paleozoic greenstone belt located in eastern Alaska. Tectonic's drill program is specifically designed to test two targets with each drill hole: a. the newly interpreted main gold-bearing shear zone feeding the historically drilled tension veins carrying diamond drill results up to 104.75 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") across 1.52 meters ("m"); b.the true width, scale and continuity of the historically drilled, shallowly dipping tension veins, where select historical vertical drill holes intersected multiple stacked, high-grade gold veins.
Tony Reda, President & CEO, said, "It is extremely rare to come across a cohesive, 40-km long underexplored greenstone belt, such as Seventymile, in a Tier 1 jurisdiction. We begin our 2022 season with a renewed intensity, fueled by the extensive interpretive work undertaken by our team, towards delineating what we believe to be top-tier, discovery-ready drill targets. The Tectonic team is laser-focused on executing an efficient drill program designed to confirm these target settings and create shareholder value. We invite investors who share our enthusiasm to join us as we track down Alaska's next great gold mine."
