Rackla Metals to Commence Exploration Program at its Rivier Gold Project, Yukon
Vancouver, August 19, 2020 - Rackla Metals Inc. (TSXV:RAK) is pleased to announce the Company is commencing a ground geophysical EM survey and geological mapping program at its Rivier Project in the Yukon. The Company has contracted Precision GeoSurveys Inc. of Langley BC to conduct the work programs at Rivier. The Yukon government has recently relaxed its COVID-19 restrictions and Rackla plans to mobilize work teams to the Project in the coming weeks. The consolidated Rivier Project (116 claims) cover lode gold mineralization of the Motherlode type. Geochemical results from soil sample programs have defined a strong broad gold anomaly along a plus two kilometre long faulted contact of an ultramafic body. The anomalous gold in soils appear to be associated with mapped Listwanite alteration. The strength of the anomaly, with several soil samples running over 2 grams per tonne gold, indicates potential for significant gold mineralization. The EM survey should better define the alteration zone and help select areas for further exploration.
