Pistol Bay Acquires Nevada Vanadium Project
10 April 2019 - 9:15AM
Pistol Bay Mining Inc. (TSX-V - PST; Frankfurt - OQS2, OTC/Pink
Sheet symbol SLTFF) (“Pistol Bay” or the “Company’) wishes to
announce that it has acquired a Vanadium project totaling 980 acres
in Clark County, Nevada.
Pistol Bay Mining Inc. has signed an agreement
with arm's-length third parties to acquire, subject to TSX Venture
Exchange approval, a 980 acre land package covering two properties
known as the Vanadium Claims Group (VCG) project. The VCG project
is located in Clark County, Nevada; a historical mining district
with 34 reported occurrences of vanadium mineralization. Vanadium
is a strategic mineral critical to steel strengthening and utility
scale battery technology.The mining district was mapped by the USGS
in the 1920’s. The USGS report makes the following comment
“Vanadates are uncommonly widespread in the district” and that
significant concentrations of vanadium were shipped from the
district in the form of mine concentrates and bulk shipments. The
USGS report also mentions a number of other references to vanadium
mineralization in the district:a) concentrates reported to contain
15% V2O5b) 3.75% V205 over 2.3mc) 3m wide zone estimated to run up
to 10% V2O5
The USGS described the styles of mineralization
within the district and recorded a significant number of vanadium
occurrences containing vanadinite, descloizite, cuprodescloizite,
psittacinite and other unnamed vanadium minerals.The USGS reported
that a number of outcrops from within the two areas covered by the
VCG project contained vanadium mineralization and that shipments of
vanadium mineralization were made from one of the areas now covered
by the VCG project.Charles Desjardins, President & CEO of
Pistol Bay, stated, “We are excited to make this acquisition as it
provides the Company exposure to the District Scale Potential of
the area for high grade Vanadium mineralization, low cost
exploration as well as potential for significant by-product credits
( lead, zinc, silver) from related mineralization in a district
that not been systematically explored for
vanadium.”Vanadium Deposits and Target GradesThe
most important vanadium bearing minerals are vanadinite (19% V2O5),
descloizite (22% V2O5), cuprodescloizite (17-22% V2O5), carnotite
(20% V2O5), roscoelite (21-29% V2O5), and patronite (17-29%
V2O5).
The vanadium mineralization exposed within the
VCG project belongs to the Exogenic type vanadium deposits
characterized by typically higher grade (2-10% V2O5)
mineralization; the vanadium minerals descloizite, cuprodescloizite
and vanadinite and occur in oxidation zones of lead-zinc and copper
mineralization. Details
on the Vanadium ProjectClaims Group
#1:Measures approximately 1.6 km by 1.0 km covering a
number of reported vanadium showing exposed in outcrop and in old
mine workings. The USGS report states: “One mine (located within
the claim group) however did ship 14 tons of material to the
American Vanadium Company.” Information on the vanadium content of
the shipment is not available.
Claims Group #2:Covers an area
measuring approximately 1.6 km by 1.0 km with reported vanadium
mineralization and a significant number of old workings. No
exploration has been completed on the two groups.
