Drilling Scheduled to Begin Early June at MOR
Tarsis Resources Ltd. (TSXV: TCC) (“Tarsis”) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling is scheduled to begin on its 100% owned MOR property, located near Teslin, Yukon in early June.
Tarsis has engaged Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited (“Archer Cathro”) to manage and implement the program, which will consist of diamond drilling and soil geochemical sampling. Archer Cathro have managed the exploration of the MOR property for Tarsis over the last three years. Tarsis has also engaged Top Rank Diamond Drilling Ltd. which conducted the 2007 and 2008 diamond drilling on the property.
The drill program will consist of two or three diamond drill holes totalling 450 meters, designed to test a combined gravity plus induced polarization (IP) anomaly. The anomaly, which is located at the eastern end of the Discovery Zone is located proximal to and upslope from a strong auger soil geochemical anomaly. Copper values range from 41 ppm (parts per million) to 1,631 ppm copper with an average of 391 ppm copper over a zone of 80 meters by 150 meters interpreted as draining the area covered by the gravity and IP anomaly.
Previous exploration at MOR has discovered accumulations of massive and semi-massive sulphide mineralization in several stacked horizons within the Discovery Zone. Full details of prior exploration results are listed on the Tarsis website (
