TORONTO, Aug. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Churchill Resources Inc. ("Churchill" or the "Company") (TSXV: CRI) is pleased to announce early results from its regional soil sampling work this summer on the Taylor Brook Project. The soil program this year was designed as a first pass survey along ~ 8km of the unsampled Layden Intrusive Trend ("LIT"), as well as the adjacent ~ 12km long western margin of the Taylor Brook Gabbro Complex ("TBGC") with 50m spaced sample stations on 200m spaced grid traverses.
多倫多,2023 年 8 月 16 日(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)— 丘吉爾資源公司(”丘吉爾“或者”公司“) (TSXV:CRI)很高興地宣佈其今年夏天在泰勒布魯克項目上進行的區域土壤採樣工作的早期結果。今年的土壤計劃旨在對未採樣的 Layden Intrusive Trend(“LIT”)的大約8公里以及泰勒布魯克·加布羅綜合體(“TBGC”)相鄰的約12公里長的西緣進行首次通過調查,在間隔200米的網格穿越上有50米間隔的樣本站。
Soil sample 884693 located on the margin of the TBGC South Lobe returned highly anomalous values of 584 ppm Ni, 1172 ppm Cu and 0.064% Co, per Figure 1.
根據圖1,位於TBGC南葉邊緣的土壤樣本884693返回了高度異常的值,分別爲584 ppm Ni、1172 ppm Cu和0.064%的Co。
Paul Sobie, CEO of Churchill stated, "This soil anomaly is the first sign of the TBGC South Lobe being mineralized, as it has never been explored. We have been intrigued since initial review of the project with Altius in 2020, by the very strong magnetic and gravity signatures of the South Lobe, and its rifted continental margin setting. Subsequent work by Churchill has defined similar age and petrographic relationships between the South Lobe and the LIT, host to the high-grade magmatic nickel mineralization at the Layden Gabbronorite. The Ni, Cu and Co results for Sample 884693 represent the best soil assays acquired to date on the project, with the cobalt assay equalling tenors seen previously only in the Layden high-grade massive sulphide samples. The Cu and Co ratios to Ni are dramatically different from those in soils and rocks elsewhere along the LIT, suggesting a different mineralization style from the nickel-dominated magmatic conduit-type at Layden."
丘吉爾首席執行官保羅·索比表示:“這種土壤異常是TBGC南葉礦化的第一個跡象,因爲它從未被勘探過。自從2020年與Altius一起對項目進行初步審查以來,我們一直對南半葉非常強的磁力和重力特徵及其裂谷大陸邊緣環境很感興趣。丘吉爾隨後的研究定義了南葉和LIT之間相似的年齡和岩石學關係,LIT是萊登輝長岩高品位岩漿鎳礦化的所在地。樣本884693的Ni、Cu和Co結果代表了該項目迄今爲止獲得的最佳土壤分析結果,其中鈷測定與以前僅在Layden高品位塊狀硫化物樣本中看到的含量相同。銅和鈷與鎳的比率與LIT沿線其他地方的土壤和岩石中的比率截然不同,這表明礦化風格與Layden以鎳爲主的岩漿管道類型不同。”

The sample 884693 result has been re-assayed with Co, Cu and Ni concentrations validated, and Pt, Pd and Au analyses have been requested. Results have been received for the first ~1000 samples of the ~5000 sample 2023 program (see Figure 2). In-fill sampling will be carried out on anomalies of interest. A follow-up soil grid over the new anomaly designated TBSL-1, with 50m lines and 25m sample stations, is commencing this week along with prospecting. Similar follow-up work carried out on the LIT-1 anomaly has confirmed the nickel tenors in soil over a wider area, and gabbronorite rocks have been found. The LIT-1 soil anomaly will be stripped and channel sampled, with TBSL-1 to follow as in-fill sampling and prospecting results are received.
對884693樣本的結果進行了重新測定,並驗證了Co、Cu和Ni的濃度,並要求進行鉑、鈀和金分析。2023 年大約 5000 個樣本計劃的前 1000 個樣本的結果已經收到(參見圖 2)。將對感興趣的異常情況進行填充採樣。本週將開始對名爲 TBSL-1 的新異常進行後續土壤網格,該異常包括5000萬條線和2500萬個樣本站,同時進行勘探。對 LIT-1 異常進行的類似後續工作證實了更廣泛區域的土壤中的鎳基含量,並且已經發現了輝長岩。LIT-1 土壤異常將被剝離並進行通道採樣,在收到填充物採樣和勘探結果後,將緊隨其後的是 TBSL-1。

Taylor Brook Project
The Taylor Brook Project consists of 9 map-staked licenses containing 705 claims totalling 176.25 km2, of which seven licenses are 100% Churchill-owned, and two small licenses totalling 4.75km2 are in the 3rd year of 3-year options to earn 100% ownership. Altius retains a 1.6% gross sales royalty on the Churchill licenses. Churchill's 2023 program includes property-wide soil sampling and prospecting, a CSAMT survey over the Layden Gabbronorite, completing the high-resolution detailed aeromagnetic coverage of the South Lobe area, stripping/trenching, and diamond drilling.
泰勒布魯克項目
泰勒布魯克項目由9個附有地圖的許可證組成,其中包含705份索賠,總長176.25公里2,其中七個許可證由丘吉爾百分之百擁有,兩個小許可證總長度爲4.75公里2 都在 3第三方 獲得 100% 所有權的三年期權期權。Altius保留了丘吉爾許可證的1.6%的總銷售特許權使用費。丘吉爾2023年的計劃包括全物業的土壤採樣和勘探、CSAMT對Layden Gabbronorite的調查、完成南葉地區的高分辨率詳細航空磁覆蓋範圍、剝離/挖溝和鑽石鑽探。

The soil samples were placed in labelled, sealed kraft bags and delivered to Eastern Analytical of Springdale, NL, an ISO/IEC 17025 certified facility. OREAS Standards and blanks were inserted in the sample batches. The samples were analysed using ICP 34 (inductively coupled plasma) analytical protocols. Samples with over limit Co contents were re-assayed using Eastern's Ore Grade Assay (multi acid digestion) overlimit method. Quality control results, including the laboratory's control samples, were evaluated immediately.
