Abitibi Metals Identifies New Drill Targets from Gravity Survey


Highlights:

  • Prospective Down-Dip Anomaly: A new excess mass has been identified at a depth of 800m on the eastern side of the B26 Deposit, indicating strong sulfide and copper-zinc mineralization potential in an area outside the current resource. This new target has a diameter of 400–500 metres, with nearby drill holes containing semi-massive mineralization.
  • Along-Strike Targets: Eight shallow targets have been identified along-strike of B26, extending up to 6-km west. These targets are within the 8.3 km property-wide contact that hosts the B26 Deposit and where there has been limited historical exploration.
  • Northwest Targets: Four targets were identified to the northwest of B26, providing high-priority exploration targets along trend with the Selbaie Mine.
  • Applying New Geophysical Techniques: Historical electrical surveys failed to differentiate mineralization from pyritic/graphitic rock. However, new data processing tools and down hole gravity surveys using Gravilog improve target discrimination at depth. Abitibi aims to integrate these with other tailored geophysical methods to better target the high-grade expansion of B26.
