VANCOUVER, Sept. 24, 2019 - Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SCOT) is pleased to announce that it has commenced its 2,000 metre 2019 drilling program. The 2019 drill program is the culmination of fieldwork conducted over the last two exploration field seasons. Detailed fieldwork included property scale geological mapping at 1:5,000 scale, detailed mapping on selected targets, re-sampling of known mineralization, digitizing historical maps and underground mine workings, and relogging historical drill core. This extensive fieldwork and reinterpretation has enabled Scottie to better assess the controls on mineralization, geochemical tracers, and the orientation of high-grade ore shoots.
The 2019 diamond drill program is designed to expand the known areas of high-grade gold mineralization on the two contiguous properties and test new ideas. The first portion of the drill program will follow up on high-grade mineralization identified through historic shallow drilling on the Bow property, after which drilling will test multiple newly developed targets at the Scottie Gold Mine. The company expects the drill program to be completed by early to mid-October with assay results to follow by late December 2019.
Thomas Mumford, VP Exploration of Scottie Resources commented: “This 2019 diamond drilling program is the culmination of two years of extensive fieldwork and reinterpretation conducted by Scottie Resources and its consultants - we are very excited to expand the known extent of high-grade gold mineralization on the properties. Ultimately, this information will add to our understanding and allow Scottie to better focus exploration and conduct a more extensive and targeted 2020 exploration program that will also include targets on the entire land package.”
