Great Atlantic Completes Maiden Diamond Drilling Program at Mascarene Copper, Cobalt, Nickel, Zinc, Gold Property

30.03.2021  |  Accesswire
VANCOUVER, MARCH 30, 2021 - Great Atlantic Resources Corp. (TSXV.GR) (the "Company" or "Great Atlantic") is pleased to announce it has completed the fourth and final drill hole (MA21-4) of its maiden diamond drilling program at its Mascarene Property, located in southwest New Brunswick. This hole was drilled into an untested magnetic high anomaly in the east region of the property. It was drilled at an 80-degree dip and deeper (hole length of 315 meters) relative to the first three holes. MA21-4 intersected local narrow veins containing sulfide mineralization (including copper sulfides) and intervals with magnetite mineralization. Drill core from all four holes is currently being sampled.

The maiden diamond drilling program was conducted in the east region of the property testing within and adjacent to a broad magnetic high trend (identified during a 2001 government airborne magnetic geophysical survey) and an area of anomalous rock samples. Rock samples collected by Great Atlantic during 2020 in this area returned highly anomalous zinc values (including outcrop grab samples returning 5800 ppm and 7810 ppm zinc) and anomalous copper and gold values. The four drill holes, MA20-1 to MA20-4, totaled 717 meters. The drilling program was supervised by a Qualified Person.

Drill core from program is being geologically logged and selectively sampled under the supervision of a Qualified Person. Sampling will include select sulfide bearing veins, a 5.2-meter core length interval in hole MA20-1 with zinc mineralization (sphalerite) and select intervals with magnetite mineralization. Samples will be submitted to a certified laboratory for gold assay and multi-element analysis.

Gold, silver, copper, nickel, cobalt and / or zinc mineralization is reported locally within and / or adjacent to the magnetic high trend which transects the property. This includes two mineral occurrences with historic workings (Oliver Cameron Mine and Wheal Louisiana Mine occurrences) and within a small quarry referred to as the North Pit. Great Atlantic's management speculate this magnetic high trend to be associated with a buried mafic intrusion(s) and a possible target for mafic intrusive hosted copper-nickel-cobalt deposits. A 2020 rock sample collected from a rubble pile at the Wheal Louisiana workings returned 6.19% copper and 0.40 g/t gold (see Company News Release of March 3, 2021). Rubble samples collected during 2018 at the Oliver Cameron workings returned up to 5.02% copper and 2.0 g/t gold (see Company News Release of October 17, 2018).

The Mascarene Property covers an area of approximately 2,080 hectares. The property is located approximately 6 kilometers southwest of the town of Saint George. Access is excellent with paved provincial roads transecting the property and / or being close to the property.

David Martin, P.Geo., a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and VP Exploration for Great Atlantic, is responsible for the technical information contained in this News Release.
