(TheNewswire)
Saskatoon, SK / TheNewswire / December 21, 2017 - Canadian Platinum Corp . (“CPC” or
the “Co mpany”-TSXV:CPC) is pleased to announce that it has engaged Axiom Exploration Ltd., of
Saskatoon, SK, to design and carry out the first phase of exploration work on the Company’s 70%-owned Cook Gold Project in Humboldt
County, Nevada, USA.
The initial stage of work, now underway, consists of compiling and digitizing the existing historical data and
integrating that with more recent relevant satellite imagery and other technical data available from various sources. This
baseline work allows for preliminary geological interpretation in advance of field operations, which will commence when ground
conditions permit. The field operations will consist of airborne geophysics, including, but not limited to, magnetometer and
hyperspectral surveys, ground geophysics, geochemistry, geological mapping, verification of historical sampling, prospecting and
new sampling, structural interpretation and selection of drill targets.
The Cook Gold Project consists of 88 lode claims covering 7.4 sq km and located 100 km northwest of
Winnemucca, Nevada. As reported January 9 th , 2017, the historical surface and underground
sampling outlines a mineralized corridor, hosting significant gold, silver and copper results, with a strike length of 2.1 km and a
width of 0.6 km. Within the mineralized corridor, there are 5 historical mine workings where near-surface oxidized
mineralization was mined. The extensive mineralization present on the property, and the project area’s proximity to the
former-producing Sleeper Mine, may indicate that the mineralization on the property represents the northern extension of the Battle
Mountain Eureka trend, but more work and analyses are necessary to make that determination.
Gary Billingsley, President, comments “We are pleased to be working with the newly-formed mineral
exploration arm of Axiom Exploration and their team of experienced professionals. CPC is anxious to commence field work on
what promises to develop into a significant asset for the Company.”
