Highlights:
-
Adds 6 claims (3.34 km), expanding the Beschefer Project to the North-West
-
Geophysics signature similar to Beschefer context, 2 kilometres westward
-
Intercept of 0.16% Copper over 1.5 metres from two historical holes
February 7, 2023 – TheNewswire - London, Ontario – Goldseek Resources Inc.(CSE:GSK)(FSE:4KG) (“Goldseek” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the addition of 6 claims (3.34 km2) expanding the north-west boundary of the Beschefer Project (the “Property"). Goldseek will acquire 100 percent ownership of these claims from Harfang Exploration Inc (“Harfang”) (TSX-V:HAR) for the below terms and conditions.
This new property was historically covered by geophysical surveys such as airborne-electromagnetic, mag, and ground IP surveys. The current interpretation of structures combining historical work indicates these claims are part of the Selbaie Mine structural corridor marked by isolated semi-circular magnetic anomalies, a north-east shear zone and cross-cutting north-west fracture zones. The new property’s main target is located approximately 2 kilometres west of our current Beschefer gold zones.
According to assessment work reports filed on the MERN database, two holes were drilled on the property in 1975 by the Norex-Selco Joint Venture. The best result of 0.16% Cu over 1.5 metres was obtained from 33.5 to 35 metres in drill hole 75-1. The mineralization was hosted in a porphyritic syenite, hematized and affected by sulfide bearing fracturing.

Goldseek's President & CEO Jon Deluce states, “We are very excited to expand our flagship Beschefer Project and to have Harfang as a new shareholder. This expanded ground providesnew targets to investigate fitting the Beschefer model alongside continued drilling to expand our four currently defined gold zones. With the recently completed flow-through of $700,000, we look forward to resuming drilling at Beschefer in the coming months.”

About the Beschefer Project:
-
On March 3rd, 2021, the Company entered into an option agreement on the Beschefer Project to earn 100% over 4 years from Wallbridge (see news release dated March 3, 2021).
-
Advanced gold exploration project with significant near-term resource potential
-
Located in a favourable orogenic gold setting 45 km northeast of the Casa Berardi Mine and 30 km southwest of Wallbridge’s Fenelon Gold Project.
-
Highlights of the best intersections include 4.92 g/t gold over 28.65 metres in hole BE-21-02 (including 11.39 g/t over 9.1m), 55.63 g/t gold over 5.57 metres in hole BE13-038 (including 224 g/t over 1.23m ; 13.95 g/t over 0.68m and 13.70 g/t over 0.73m), 13.07 g/t gold over 8.75 metres in hole B12-014 (including 58.5 g/t over 1.5m), 3.56 g/t gold over 28.4 metres in hole B14-006 (including 7.42 g/t over 5.5m), and 10.28 g/t gold over 8.00 metres in hole B14-35 (including 86.74 g/t over 0.60m). True width in these sections vary between 89% and 99% of the intercepted width.
-
The mineralization shows high-grade gold-bearing structures hosted in a lower grade envelope, highlighting the regional potential along the already defined shear zones on the Property.
