CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / August 13, 2024 / Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the "Company") (CSE:TOC)(OTCQB:TCVNF)(FSE:TV3), is pleased to provide an update from its gold-silver projects in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. The Company will refer to the consolidated area that includes the Pilar Main Zone and the adjacent 22 km2 as Gran Pilar. This signifies the broader scale project size the Company is focusing on as it advances to a maiden resource at the Pilar Main Zone as well as defining large-scale targets beyond.
艾伯塔省卡尔加里/ACCESSWIRE/2024年8月13日/Tocvan Ventures Corp.(“公司”)(CSE: TOC)(OTCQB: TCVNF)(FSE: TV3)很高兴提供其在墨西哥索诺拉矿业友好型的金银项目的最新情况。该公司将把包括皮拉尔主区和邻近的22平方公里在内的合并区域称为大皮拉尔。这表明公司在向皮拉尔主区的首个资源开发以及确定其他大规模目标的过程中,正在关注更大规模的项目规模。
Based on management's strong belief in the project's potential, the Company is outlining a permitting and operations strategy for a pilot facility at Pilar. The facility would underpin a robust test mine scenario with aims to process up to 50,000 tonnes of material. Timelines and budget are being prepared with the aim of moving forward with the development early in 2025. With gold prices hitting all-time highs, the Company believes the onsite test mine will provide key economic parameters and showcase the mineral potential of the area. In 2023, the Company completed an offsite bulk sample that produced important data showcasing the potential to recover both gold and silver through a variety of methods including heap leach, gravity and agitated leach (see August 22, 2023 news release for more details).
基于管理层对该项目潜力的坚定信念,该公司正在概述皮拉尔试点设施的许可和运营战略。该设施将为稳健的试雷情景提供支持,目标是处理多达50,000吨的材料。正在编制时间表和预算,目的是在2025年初推进开发。随着黄金价格创下历史新高,该公司认为,现场试矿将提供关键的经济参数,并展示该地区的矿产潜力。2023年,该公司完成了场外批量样本,该样本生成了重要数据,显示了通过堆浸法、重力和搅拌浸出法等各种方法回收黄金和白银的潜力(更多细节见2023年8月22日新闻稿)。
Surface sampling has been ongoing across the Gran Pilar project area with a focus on the northern and eastern extensions of the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-T trends. To date, over 200 surface samples have been collected by technical staff with results pending. The sampling will provide key information for defining target areas for future drilling campaigns and outlining areas appropriate for future mine-infrastructure. The Company is encouraged by the initial surface results released early this year that identified several high-grade gold and silver zones east of the Main Zone highlighted by 7.3 g/t Au with 177 g/t Ag and 5.5 g/t Au with 80 g/t Ag (see Figure 1 and April 18, 2024 news release) and the continued work of small, placer miners in the area which continue to report positive results from several areas of interest. These results are coupled with high-grade gold and silver results associated with a large footprint of hydrothermal alteration five kilometers north of the Main Zone (5.6 g/t Au in the October 19, 2023 news release and 3.2 g/t Au with 1,225 g/t Ag in the March 8, 2024 news release).
Gran Pilar项目区域的地表采样一直在进行中,重点是主区域的北部和东部延伸、北山和4吨趋势。迄今为止,技术人员已经收集了200多个表面样本,尚待结果。抽样将为确定未来钻探活动的目标区域和概述适合未来采矿基础设施的区域提供关键信息。令公司感到鼓舞的是,今年年初公布的初步表面结果确定了主区以东的几个高品位金和银矿区,重点是7.3克/吨金含量为177克/吨银和5.5克/吨金含80克/吨银(见图1和2024年4月18日新闻稿),以及该地区小型砂矿开采商的持续工作,这些矿商继续报告多个利益领域的积极业绩。这些结果与主区以北五公里处的大量热液蚀变相关的高品位金和白银结果相结合(2023年10月19日新闻稿中为5.6克/吨金,2024年3月8日新闻稿中为3.2克/吨金和1,225克/吨银)。
As a result of the surface findings, a detailed review of Gran Pilar spanning over 6 weeks of on-site due diligence has been completed by a regional major producer. Once data has been processed and reviewed both parties will discuss next steps later in the fall.
根据表面调查结果,该地区一家主要生产商已经完成了对Gran Pilar的详细审查,该审查历时6周的现场尽职调查。数据经过处理和审查后,双方将在秋季晚些时候讨论下一步行动。
Also, preparations are being made for the next phases of core and RC drilling that will focus on resource definition. Between 1,200 to 2,000 meters of core drilling are being considered along with 1,700 to 2,500 meters of RC drilling before the end of the year. Additional drilling of exploration targets across Gran Pilar will be considered later in the year. Core drilling will focus on building a robust geological model across Pilar with emphasis on the Main Zone. RC drilling will concentrate on additional infill and step-out targeting across the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-T trends. Upon completion of drilling the Company anticipates a maiden resource estimate will be finalized for the initial Pilar Main Zone and adjacent trends providing an initial step of showcasing the full potential of the project area.
此外,正在为下一阶段的岩心和钢筋混凝土钻探做准备,这些阶段将侧重于资源定义。正在考虑在年底之前进行1,200至2,000米的岩心钻探,以及1,700至2,500米的钢筋混凝土钻探。今年晚些时候,将考虑在Gran Pilar上进一步钻探勘探目标。岩心钻探将侧重于在皮拉尔建立一个稳健的地质模型,重点是主区域。反渗透钻探将集中在主区、北山和4吨趋势的额外填充和踏出目标上。该公司预计,钻探完成后,将最终确定最初的皮拉尔主区和邻近趋势的首次资源估算,这是展示该项目区域全部潜力的第一步。
In addition, Tocvan has been invited to present at the annual Congreso Internacional Minero held in Hermosillo, Sonora. The mining conference sees over 10,000 attendees, showcasing the resource industry in Mexico.

"Making the most of the rain season in Sonora, our field crews have been hard at work advancing our understanding of the broader mineralized footprint that extends out from Pilar" commented Brodie Sutherland, CEO. "We are excited to review the results of their initial work as it will provide key information in drill targeting across the broader Gran Pilar property. We are also preparing for the next phases of drilling which will include important core drilling through our Main Zone and other prospective trends. The last core program we completed in 2022 was a huge success, giving us a better understanding of the host rocks and the pervasive alteration and brecciation one would expect from a robust mineralized system. Drilling completed before the end of the year will go into a maiden resource estimate for Pilar, a starting point for establishing initial resources for development. Along with these preparations the Company is evaluating a pilot mine facility to process material at site. A logical step-forward as we showcase the accessibility of gold and silver whilst taking advantage of current market prices for the commodities. The Company anticipates necessary equipment setup and permitting can be completed by early 2025, with the objective of processing up to 50,000 tonnes of material directly from Pilar. A key differentiator for the Company and project. Our core objective is to unlock the potential of the greater project area while advancing mine development. The work completed to date has sparked interest from producers on the project potential and the immense upside to resource expansion we have shown quickly through exploration. We expect discussions to increase leading up to Mexico's biggest mining conference in October. The Company maintains a positive outlook on the future of mining in Mexico and looks forward to advancing its initiatives of transitioning to producer. Taking full advantage of the excellent infrastructure and talented work force Sonora provides."
首席执行官布罗迪·萨瑟兰评论说:“我们的现场工作人员充分利用了索诺拉州的雨季,努力增进我们对皮拉尔以外的更广泛矿化足迹的理解。”“我们很高兴审查他们初步工作的结果,因为这将为更广泛的Gran Pilar地产的钻探目标提供关键信息。我们还在为下一阶段的钻探做准备,其中包括通过我们的主区域进行重要的岩心钻探和其他前景趋势。我们在2022年完成的最后一个核心项目取得了巨大成功,这使我们更好地了解了宿主岩石以及人们对强大的矿化系统所期望的普遍蚀变和角砾岩。年底之前完成的钻探将进入皮拉尔的首次资源估算,这是建立初始开发资源的起点。除了这些准备工作外,该公司还在评估一个试点矿山设施,用于现场处理材料。这是合乎逻辑的向前迈出的一步,因为我们展示了黄金和白银的可及性,同时充分利用了大宗商品的当前市场价格。该公司预计,必要的设备安装和许可可以在2025年初完成,目标是直接从皮拉尔加工多达50,000吨的材料。公司和项目的关键差异化因素。我们的核心目标是在推进矿山开发的同时,释放更大项目区域的潜力。迄今为止完成的工作激发了生产商对该项目潜力的兴趣,以及我们通过勘探迅速显示出的资源扩张的巨大好处。我们预计,在10月墨西哥最大的矿业会议之前,讨论将增加。该公司对墨西哥采矿业的未来保持乐观的展望,并期待推进其向生产商过渡的举措。充分利用索诺拉提供的卓越基础设施和才华横溢的劳动力。”

About the Pilar Property
关于皮拉尔房产
The Pilar Gold-Silver property has returned some of the regions best drill results. Coupled with encouraging gold and silver recovery results from metallurgical test work, Pilar is primed to be a potential near-term producer. Pilar is interpreted as a structurally controlled low-sulphidation epithermal system hosted in andesite rocks. Initially three primary zones of mineralization were identified on the original property from historic surface work and drilling and are referred to as the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-T. Each trend remains open to the southeast and north and new parallel zones have been discovered. Structural features and zones of mineralization within the structures follow an overall NW-SE trend of mineralization. Mineralization extends along a 1.2-km trend, only half of that trend has been drill tested so far. The Company has now expanded its interest in the area by consolidating 22 square-kilometers of highly prospective ground where it has already made significant surface discoveries.
Pilar Gold-Silver地产已返回该地区一些最佳的钻探结果。再加上令人鼓舞的冶金测试工作得出的黄金和白银回收结果,皮拉尔有望成为潜在的短期生产商。皮拉尔被解释为位于安山岩岩石中的结构受控的低硫化超热系统。最初,通过历史地表工作和钻探在原始地质上确定了三个主要矿化区域,被称为主区、北山区和4-T。每种趋势都向东南和北部开放,并发现了新的平行区域。结构特征和结构内的矿化区域遵循西北东南部的整体矿化趋势。矿化沿着1.2千米的趋势延伸,到目前为止,只有一半的趋势经过了钻探测试。该公司现已通过整合22平方公里的极具前景的地面扩大了对该地区的兴趣,该公司已经在那里进行了重大地表发现。
