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.
不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华--（Newsfile Corp.，2023年11月20日）-星科国际矿业有限公司（多伦多证券交易所股票代码：SAM）（“Starcore” 或 “公司”）已完成2023年勘探计划的油田部分，位于不列颠哥伦比亚省西北部爱丽丝阿姆以北12公里处，被称为 “金三角” 的矿带南端。该公司与Auracle Geospatial Science Inc.签订合同，使用卫星载雷达成像完成对阿贾克斯地产的地下结构解释和表观电阻率研究。该成像穿透地被，有助于描绘基岩地层、地质结构和潜在的矿化断层。这项工作的结果产生了几个目标，这些目标将继续在该物业上进行探索，并用于补充详细的地质测绘。实地考察的重点是继续发现斑岩系统周围的规则矿化石英脉。这些矿脉似乎是促使人们对该矿产进行早期勘探的原因，这种勘探始于20世纪20年代中期，当时发现了大型钼斑岩系统，为贵金属矿化提供了一个有吸引力的目标。
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通过收购Creston Moly Corp. 及其子公司Tenajon Resources Corp. 收购了占地1718公顷的阿贾克斯斑岩钼矿产。该物业拥有大型的阿贾克斯斑岩钼开发区从1960年代中期开始经过48个钻孔的测试。在2023年实地考察期间，对2005、2006和2007年钻探计划中的安全钻芯进行了有选择的重新采样，并将进行包括黄金在内的其他元素检测、银、钴、钨和。不列颠哥伦比亚省地质调查局还对钻芯进行了采样，以进行关键矿物分析、液体包裹体和矿化年龄研究。结果预计将于2024年1月公布。
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.
阿贾克斯物业位于 Dolly Varden Silver 东南约 12 公里处，Big Bulk 以南 7 公里处，Goldigger/Surebet 物业以东 17 公里处。阿贾克斯位于三叠纪-侏罗纪接触点（该地区的红线）不到1至3公里处，金三角的许多矿化系统都位于该接触点附近。
