SLAM Samples Assay Up to 31.5 g/t Gold
20 Juli 2023 - 6:01PM
SLAM Exploration Ltd. (TSXV-SXL)
(“
SLAM” or the “
Company”) is
pleased to announce assays ranging up to 31.5 g/t gold from grab
samples collected from a vein on the Shadow Lake gold project
located 30 km west of Saint John, New Brunswick. (The
“
Property”).
SLAM acquired the Shadow Lake gold property
after Company geologists reported the presence of visible gold in 2
grab samples collected from the LLP vein near the west end of the
Property. These 2 samples returned assays of 31.50 g/t gold and
9.93 g/t gold respectively. Previous workers reported a grab sample
grading 54.9 g/t gold from this vein which was traced over a strike
length of 150 metres.
Previous workers reported 6 additional gold
occurrences including a grab sample grading 70.4 g/t gold at a site
15 kilometres east of the LLP vein. Assays are pending on 14
samples collected from multiple sites during a second visit by
SLAM’s advance scout team. The Company has commissioned a soil
geochemical survey on 2 grids to test the strike potential of these
gold veins.
The Shadow Lake Gold Project:
The Property comprises 6 claims covering 3782 hectares along a 20
kilometre stretch of granitic and sedimentary rocks associated with
the Fundy fault zone. The Fundy fault zone is the name for a series
of regional fault structures cutting through SLAM’s Shadow Lake,
Rogers Lake and Jake Lee claim groups. The discovery of gold
mineralization in the vicinity of these faults is similar to recent
gold discoveries by Newfound Gold Corp. along the Appleton and JBP
faults as well as other structures in Newfoundland. SLAM President
Mike Taylor states “Exploration of similar structures in New
Brunswick is generating gold discoveries. The Company has already
identified a 20 kilometre gold generating fault system at Shadow
Lake. This acquisition expands SLAM’s mineral holdings to 1377
claim units covering 37,732 hectares spread along these fault zones
with the possibility for an emerging gold district.”
About SLAM Exploration Ltd:
SLAM intends to complete soil geochemical
surveys to further test the Shadow Lake gold occurrences. These
projects are associated with the Fundy fault zone and located in
southwestern New Brunswick where Galway Metals recently announced a
2.3 million ounce gold deposit at Clarence stream. The Company
plans further work at its drill-ready Menneval gold project in
northern New Brunswick.
Targeting critical elements as well as gold, the
Company aggressively pursues new exploration opportunities such as
the recently staked Highway project with has known occurrences of
cobalt, copper and silver as well as gold. SLAM also intends to
explore cobalt, nickel and copper geochemical anomalies on its
Portage project in the Bathurst Mining Camp (“BMC”). The Company is
evaluating the Cumberland Bay rare earth element (REE) project in
central New Brunswick and the Keezhik gold project in Ontario.
The Company has sufficient funds for the work
currently in progress. To view SLAM’s corporate presentation, click

QA-QC Procedures: Grab
samples were collected and delivered to were sent to ALS Chemex in
Moncton, New Brunswick. The samples were prepared according to ALS
code Prep 31B and were analyzed for gold using standard fire assay
(30 gram) with AAS finish according to ALS code Au-AA23. Samples
over the 10 g/t limit for the AAS method were analyzed by fire
assay with a gravimetric finish.
