Northern Shield Resources Inc. Commences Phase 2 Drilling at Shot Rock Gold Property in Nova Scotia

09.07.2020  |  CNW
OTTAWA, July 9, 2020 - Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield" or the "Company") (TSXV: NRN) is pleased to announce that crews and a drill rig have been mobilized for the second phase of drilling at the Shot Rock Property ("Shot Rock") in Nova Scotia. Shot Rock is being explored for low sulphidation epithermal (LSE) gold mineralization. Northern Shield can earn up to an 80% interest in Shot Rock.

The phase two diamond drilling program is designed to follow up on the discovery of high-grade gold mineralization intersected during the maiden drilling program on the Highway Zone at Shot Rock (see press release dated April 29, 2020). The maiden drilling program was highlighted by a 2.45 metre intersection of 12.6 g/t Au including a 1.0 metre interval of 17.3 g/t Au and 2.4 g/t Ag over 3.15 metres including 22.1 g/t Au over 0.4 metres.

The phase two program will consist of eight to ten drill-holes totalling 2,500 to 3,000 metres. Drilling will focus on four target components (see maps for locations):

  1. High-grade intersection from Phase 1 (Figure 1)
    Phase two drilling will aim at intersecting the structure that hosts the high-grade mineralization at deeper and shallower levels.

  2. Zone of Reduced Magnetic Signature (Figure 1 & 2)
    Alteration associated with the mineralization is now known to degrade the magnetism of the hosts rocks. Several drill holes will test an area of reduced magnetic signature that coincides with structures deemed to be of importance.

  3. Crystal Hill Magnetic Anomaly (Figure 1)
    One hole will test a pocket of lower magnetic signature located between the Highway Zone and Crystal Hill.

  4. Southern-most Stockwork Zone (Figure 1)
    One drill-hole will test the southern-most mineralized structure in the Highway Zone. Abundant mineralized stockwork veining is exposed on the southeast flank of the hill at the Highway Zone. This zone was targeted in the first phase of drilling but it is now believed that drill-hole undercut this structure.

"We are eager to get back to Shot Rock and follow up on the high-grade intercepts from the first phase of drilling. Hitting those grades in the maiden drill program bodes well for phase 2 and provides confidence that there is a lot more to be found at depth in the Highway and Crystal Hill area."

- Northern Shield President and CEO, Ian Bliss

The drilling program is contracted to Logan Drilling Group based in Stewiacke, Nova Scotia, and will be overseen by Christine Vaillancourt, P. Geo., the Company's Chief Geologist and a Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.
