Black Tusk Completes Reprocessing of Geophysical Data for the Goldsmith Property
Vancouver, August 13, 2018 - Black Tusk Resources Inc. ("Black Tusk" or the "Company) (C:TUSK) has recently received the results of geophysical data processing by Salt Spring Imaging. The work was conducted by world renowned geophysicist Dr. Fred Cook, who completed reprocessing and preliminary interpretation of high resolution airborne and ground-based magnetic data for the Goldsmith Property. The airborne electromagnetic and magnetic data was acquired by Aeroquest in 2006 for a previous operator of the property. Ground-based geophysics was conducted by Black Tusk in 2017. Dr. Cook utilized enhanced processing to create greater detail imaging of the geophysical data. The goal of this work was to assist in mapping features that may help delineate structures related to gold mineralization on the property. The imaging shows large linear anomalies that are associated with the general geologic trend of the area, with transverse anomalies that cut across the general trend. Both of these orientations may be associated with gold-bearing structures. Preliminary interpretation indicates coincident high gold in soil with some of the geophysical anomalies.
The enhanced geophysical data processing has produced intriguing geometries that may be related to structural complications associated with vein development. Black Tusk intends to continue exploration on the property with geologic mapping and rock and soil geochemistry to establish correlations that may exist with the geophysical anomalies.
