Gold Basin Resources Corp. New Drilling Program Commences at Gold Basin Project

17.01.2022  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, Jan. 17, 2022 - Gold Basin Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "Gold Basin") (TSXV:GXX) (OTC:GXXFF) is pleased to announce that a ~10,000m drilling program has started at the Company's 100%-owned Gold Basin oxide gold project in north-western Arizona (the "Gold Basin Project" or the "Project").

Drilling will target the Cyclopic, Stealth and PLM Deposits, following up on the shallow, continuous, gold-bearing mineralisation identified in the first 10,000m program in 2021 and historical drilling that showed significant potential at the Stealth and PLM deposits.


Michael Povey CEO commented:

"We are excited by the potential of the new drill program, especially with the inclusion of the Stealth and PLM deposits. The 2021 exploration program provided a better understanding of the mineralisation at Cyclopic, which in turn showed us how that correlated with what we can see in the historic drilling results at these nearby deposits. Consequently, we are of the opinion that Stealth and PLM have excellent potential to add significant mineralisation to what is being identified at Cyclopic.

We have also been active with detailed geophysical surveys at the Gold Basin Project. High-resolution magnetic and hyperspectral surveys have been completed and we have just commenced the final piece of the geophysical "jig-saw", an IP Survey which we will have a news release on shortly. This information has already generated additional targets and a better picture of the Gold Basin Project geology.

Lastly, metallurgical heap-leach testwork continues. We just received the results of the initial bottle roll tests on drill composites and will report on the result soon. KCA have started work on the PQ core supplied to their laboratories before Christmas.

We move into 2022 with a solid foundation of exploration work and look forward to an exciting year."


2022 Drill Program

The 2020/21 reverse-circulation drill program at the Cyclopic deposit identified oxide gold mineralisation from surface to an average drillhole depth of 90m, along approximately 1.7km of strike length. The current drill program aims to expand the Cyclopic mineralisation and assess several of the known nearby historic gold zones for the first time in decades.

The 2022 drill program includes three main targets:
1. Cyclopic Deposit:

a. North towards the Fry Mine; and

b. East of the Cyclopic Fault;

1. Stealth Deposit - 1km West of Cyclopic; and

2. PLM Target - 3.3km south of Cyclopic.

1. Cyclopic Deposit Drilling Program


Background

Modeling of the drilling data shows that the deposit consists of numerous mineralised flat-lying layers that pinch and swell, blending into each other in many zones. The drilling density along the 1.7km-long N-S axis is greater than that of the 800m E-W orientation and clearly shows the continuity of these mineralised structures both along strike and within their repetitions at depth.

On the E-W axis, where there is less drill coverage, analysis of historical drilling intercepts 300m east (near D in Figure 3) and north of the current drilling also show similar gold mineralisation layering.

The 2022 drilling program will target these "gaps", where little to no historical drilling was done, aiming to confirm the continuity of the mineralisation and expand the boundaries of the known mineralisation.

1. Stealth Deposit Drilling Program


Background

The Stealth deposit lies along the Stealth fault, a parallel structure to the Cyclopic fault that continues both north and south of the Stealth deposit.

Historical drilling at Stealth identified a significant zone of gold mineralisation where similar "layering" is present. The Company confirmed the historical results by drilling two diamond drillholes in 2021, which included the following results (See NR21-15, October 7, 2021):

- STDD001 intersected a broad zone of 55.8m at 0.7 g/t gold from 18.3m
-- Including 23.2m at 1.01 g/t Au from 18.3m
-- and 16.8m @ 0.5 g/t Au from 133.5m

- STDD002 intersected 35.1m at 0.56 g/t Au from 74.4m
-- Including 9.1m at 0.97 g/t Au from 91.1m

The 2022 drill program at Stealth will include coverage of the historical drilled areas and the extension northwards towards the Gold Basin shear ( Figure 1).
