Black Tusk Resources Inc. to Secure Drill Contractor for the McKenzie East Project, Quebec
The company is currently undertaking a 3D Induced Polarization Survey (IP) on the McKenzie East gold property. Abitibi Geophysics will complete their advanced technology OreVision® IP survey over the main target zone on the property within the week. The results of the IP survey will be combined with the results of geological work, MMI soil sample results and magnetometer surveying completed earlier this year in order to locate the best targets for diamond drilling.
The company has acquired a permit that allows for the construction of 18 drill pads with supporting water supply stations and access trails. Black Tusk plans to conduct the initial diamond drill program soon after completion of the ground surveys, expected to be late August to early September.
