Interesting drill targets in Val-d’Or $TUSK Good Luck All Black Tusk Resources Inc. has received preliminary results from the 3-D induced polarization survey at the McKenzie East gold property, located north of Val d'Or. The company contracted Abitibi Geophysics in Val d'Or, Que., to undertake an OreVision IP survey over the main target zone on the property.
The IP survey lines were located within the northwest area of the McKenzie East property in order to trace possible gold-bearing structures similar to those located on the McKenzie Break property, located two kilometres west of the Black Tusk claims. A series of 1.5-kilometre-long lines were tested by the IP survey for a total of 7.5 kilometres.
The results of the IP survey are very encouraging, with Abitibi providing five new targets for potential drill testing. The targets have been modelled as high-relative gold index on the resulting profiles. The IP targets are also supported by magnetic anomalies produced from the drone magnetic survey completed earlier this year. Soil sample MMI (mobile metal ion) results also indicate the potential for gold and copper to be associated with the geophysical targets.
Abitibi will continue to process and model the 3-D IP survey results to provide more detailed visualization of the underlying bedrock and associated structures for drilling.
The company expects to begin diamond drill testing the best targets defined by the data obtained so far within the following months. The current permit allows for the completion of 18 drill pads on the property.
