Starcore Completes 2023 Exploration at Its Ajax Property, Golden Triangle Area, British Columbia
Starcore Completes 2023 Exploration at Its Ajax Property, Golden Triangle Area, British Columbia
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 20, 2023) - Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) ("Starcore" or the "Company") has completed the field component of the 2023 exploration program at the 100%-owned Ajax Property located 12 km north of Alice Arm in northwestern B.C. at the southern end of the mineral belt known as the "Golden Triangle". The Company contracted Auracle Geospatial Science Inc. to complete a subsurface structural interpretation and an apparent resistivity study of the Ajax Property using satellite borne radar imaging. This imaging penetrates ground cover and assists in delineating bedrock formations, geological structures and potential mineralizing faults. The results of the work generated several targets that will continue to be explored on the property and used to supplement detailed geological mapping. Field work has focused on the continued discovery of regular, mineralized quartz veins peripheral to the porphyry system. These veins appear to be what brought early exploration to the property, beginning during the mid-1920's, prior to the discovery of the large molybdenum porphyry system, and present an attractive target for precious metals mineralization.
不列顛哥倫比亞省溫哥華--（Newsfile Corp.，2023年11月20日）-星科國際礦業有限公司（多倫多證券交易所股票代碼：SAM）（“Starcore” 或 “公司”）已完成2023年勘探計劃的油田部分，位於不列顛哥倫比亞省西北部愛麗絲阿姆以北12公里處，被稱爲 “金三角” 的礦帶南端。該公司與Auracle Geospatial Science Inc.簽訂合同，使用衛星載雷達成像完成對阿賈克斯地產的地下結構解釋和表觀電阻率研究。該成像穿透地被，有助於描繪基岩地層、地質結構和潛在的礦化斷層。這項工作的結果產生了幾個目標，這些目標將繼續在該物業上進行探索，並用於補充詳細的地質測繪。實地考察的重點是繼續發現斑岩系統周圍的規則礦化石英脈。這些礦脈似乎是促使人們對該礦產進行早期勘探的原因，這種勘探始於20世紀20年代中期，當時發現了大型鉬斑岩系統，爲貴金屬礦化提供了一個有吸引力的目標。
The 1,718 hectares Ajax property was acquired by Starcore in 2015 through its purchase of Creston Moly Corp. and its subsidiary Tenajon Resources Corp. The property hosts the large Ajax porphyry molybdenum developed prospect that has been tested by 48 drill holes, beginning in the mid 1960's. The secure drill core from the 2005, 2006 and 2007 drilling programs was selectively resampled during the 2023 fieldwork and will be assayed for additional elements including gold, silver, cobalt, tungsten and rhenium. The drill core was also sampled by the British Columbia Geological Survey for critical mineral assays, fluid inclusion and age of mineralization work. Results are expected to be released in January, 2024.
2015年，Starcore通過收購Creston Moly Corp. 及其子公司Tenajon Resources Corp. 收購了佔地1718公頃的阿賈克斯斑岩鉬礦產。該物業擁有大型的阿賈克斯斑岩鉬開發區從1960年代中期開始經過48個鑽孔的測試。在2023年實地考察期間，對2005、2006和2007年鑽探計劃中的安全鑽芯進行了有選擇的重新採樣，並將進行包括黃金在內的其他元素檢測、銀、鈷、鎢和。不列顛哥倫比亞省地質調查局還對鑽芯進行了採樣，以進行關鍵礦物分析、液體包裹體和礦化年齡研究。結果預計將於2024年1月公佈。
The Ajax property is located approximately 12 km to the south south-east of Dolly Varden Silver, 7 km south of Big Bulk, 17 km east of Goliath Resources Golddigger/Surebet property. The Ajax is located within 1 to 3 km of the Triassic - Jurassic contact, termed the Red Line in this area, near which many of the Golden Triangle's mineralized systems occur.
阿賈克斯物業位於 Dolly Varden Silver 東南約 12 公里處，Big Bulk 以南 7 公里處，Goldigger/Surebet 物業以東 17 公里處。阿賈克斯位於三疊紀-侏羅紀接觸點（該地區的紅線）不到1至3公里處，金三角的許多礦化系統都位於該接觸點附近。
