Murchison Acquires 11 Claims Totaling 123.9 Km(2) at Brabant Lake, Saskatchewan

03.02.2020  |  Accesswire

TORONTO, February 3, 2020 - Murchison Minerals Ltd. ("Murchison" or the "Company") (TSXV: MUR) is pleased to announce it has acquired an additional 12,391 hectares (123.91 km2) of mineral claims located southwest and contiguous to the existing Brabant Lake project in northern Saskatchewan (see Figure 1). These 11 claims making up the Wierzycki Lake Project, were acquired from MAS Gold Corp. ("MAS") in exchange for a 1% NSR royalty. Murchison's land position in the area now stands at 554 km2.

The new claims which host 6 mineral showings, cover the same prospective geological unit that hosts the Brabant-McKenzie VMS deposit (Figure 2). The area covered by these claims has seen limited historic exploration and represents a promising exploration opportunity to employ modern geophysical and other exploration techniques.

Murchison currently has one VMS deposit that remains open to expansion and 12 high-priority targets which are being drilled this winter.

Murchison's priority drill targets, namely Brabant South and Main West are located on the edge of the common boundary with the MAS claim block. The acquisition ensures that systematic exploration efforts can continue unimpeded.

Three prospective electromagnetic (EM) conductors have already been identified next to the Brabant South drill target as shown on the following map.

BS-8A:
Strike Length: 557m
Depth Extent: 70m
CT: 250 S

BS-8B:
Strike Length: 250m
Depth Extent: 50m
CT: 350 S

BS-8C:
Strike Length: 387m
Depth Extent: 68m
CT: 355 S

The purchase price is satisfied by granting a 1% Net Smelter Return royalty granted in favour of MAS applied to the mineral rights (claims and claim cells) retained by Murchison after May 6, 2020, the date at which the claims would otherwise have lapsed. Should Murchison elect to release any claims or claim cells subsequent to that date, title to these cells will be offered to be transferred back to MAS. Failure of MAS to accept the transfer of the title within 30 days' notice by Murchison to relinquish title to specific cells, the latter will be allowed to lapse and the 1% NSR attached to these cells and/or claims will become extinguished. Murchison will post a $185,867 bond with the Government of Saskatchewan to cover the assessment work required to keep the claims in good standing past May 6, 2020. Exploration expenditures made by Murchison can be allocated to any contiguous claims within a 18,000-hectare radius. Murchison has one year to complete the minimum expenditures and recover the assessment bond.
