Gold Basin Resources Corp. Geophysical Review Identifies Multiple New Targets and Additional Deposit Styles Potential

02.11.2022  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, November 2, 2022 - Gold Basin Resources Corp. (the "Company" or "Gold Basin") - (TSXV:GXX), (OTC:GXXFF) is pleased to report the summary of an extensive review of multiple sets of geophysical data collected by the Company over the previous 18 months, interpreting Airborne/UAV Magnetic, Radiometric and Induced Polarisation and Electrical Resistivity ("IP/ER") surveys on its 100%-owned Gold Basin Property in Mohave County, Northern Arizona, USA.

The geophysical targeting is dependent on geological deposit models. The conceptual models used are:

  1. EpithermalAualongtheDetachmentFaultsandNormalFaults.

  2. PorphyryCu-Austyleatdepth(>200m).

  3. Ironoxidegold(IOG)deposits,liketheCyclopicandStealthAuMineralisation

The summary report combines and redefines the major geophysical targets within the following areas of the GXX licences:

  • TargetArea1-EastCyclopic.

  • TargetArea2-SEExtensionoftheCyclopicFault.

  • TargetArea3-StealthCyclopicDTF.

  • TargetArea4-WestCyclopic.

  • TargetArea5-SenatorandOwen

GEOPHYSICAL TARGETS

The geophysical targets were taken from three individual reports and are described in detail for two areas of the GXX property: Cyclopic-Stealth Targets and the Senator-Owens targets. Within the Cyclopic and Stealth area, the most detailed geophysics was acquired including an IP/Resistivity survey. As a result, this target area has the most targets, as shown in Figure 1.

TARGET TYPES

The following gold-targeting approaches are:

1. High-Angle and Detachment fault Intersection (HADINT) - Using high-angle "extensional" faults for fluid pathways and where they intersect dilational traps, like the shallow detachment faults. This appears to be mechanism for the Cyclopic epithermal/iron oxide gold deposit.

2. It is interpreted that there may be a stacked series of low angle faults, all of which may also be mineralised in a manner similar to that at the Cyclopic mine area.

3. Antiform hinge-axis and fault Intersection (AINT) - The NS hinge-axis of antiforms, acts as a fluid pathway from the Two Mica Monzogranite Kg. Sills of mineralisation can then deposit in the fold closures, laterally away from Kg. Where these intersect the high-angle faults. The Fry Gold Mine, the gold deposit south of Fry and possibly Senator Gold Mine use this structural setting.

4. High Radiometrics (RAD) - At Cyclopic, this is a good indicator of massive potassium feldspar replacement in the upper plate of the DTF. There are also noticeably less magnetic units within the area. Magnetite destruction? Within the radiometric data, there are other similar areas to Cyclopic, to the west and south. Neither area is covered by the Arizona composite rock samples or drilling.

TARGET AREA 1 - EAST CYCLOPIC

East of the Cyclopic Fault consists of the daylighting of the Cyclopic Detachment Fault (DTF) and a wedge of Cretaceous Km/Kg Monzogranite. The IP chargeability layer SC1, appears to be a broad phyllic alteration zone, with the likely fluid up-flow at the Cyclopic and Cyclopic 2 normal faults. Limited drilling has been completed at this target.

TARGET AREA 2 - SE EXTENSION OF THE CYCLOPIC FAULT

Previous magnetic interpretation (Logan and Tsetsegbayar, 2022) of the southern end of the Cyclopic Fault, has it veering to the east. The IP chargeability and resistivity models clearly have the fault continuing to the south-east, as shown in plan view in Figure 2 and 3D in Figure 2a. This southeast extension remains completely undrilled.

TARGET AREA 3 - STEALTH CYCLOPIC DTF - HANGING WALL

The IP/ER survey inferred a 3km strike of the proposed Stealth DTF, as shown in Figure 3. Detachment-style gold mineralization is likely from Stealth and Red Cloud to the east along this proposed DTF. Figure 4 shows a Stealth to Cyclopic resistivity cross-section which clearly defines the DTF, including the new Stealth DTF which was not previously known.

TARGET AREA 4 - WEST CYCLOPIC

West Cyclopic contains a deep chargeability zone between Cyclopic and Stealth/Red Cloud. This is a potential porphyry Cu-Au centre. It is also anomalous in AZ composite Au rockchip geochemistry.

TARGET AREA 5 - SENATOR AND OWENS (CU-AU DEPOSIT)

The 12 targets in the Senator and Owens area are on the northern portion of the GXX Gold Basin Property and remain largely untested with drilling. These targets are from the Phase 2 UAV Magnetics and Radiometric data.

The Owens Deposit was a small underground mine that, based on historical records, produced copper, iron and possibly gold. Previous exploration in the 1980s was limited to mapping and some shallow drilling, with many drill holes not assayed for gold. Copper grades in historical rock chip sampling are highly encouraging with waste dump samples returning high grade copper up to 6% with gold up to 11 g/t in a single sample. The occurrence of copper and gold at Owens is highly encouraging and further work is planned in the coming months.

SPECIFIC ALTERATION TARGET TYPES FROM THE IP/ER SURVEY

The four alteration types mapped by the survey are:

Shallow chargeability (SC) zone is associated with pervasive clay (sericite) alteration in the DTF upper plate but extends into the footwall containing Km/Kg as possibly pyritic/magnetitie alteration. This zone is wedged between the Gold Basin Shear the Cyclopic Gold deposit and the reverse fault on the east side. It contains two of the other IP interpreted alteration types below, that are potentially gold mineralized.

High Resistivity (R) is most likely associated with quartz or silica. The resistivity ranges for this go from 500 ohm.m to 1000 ohm.m. These all reside in the footwall of the Cyclopic Fault, some within the mineralization of the Cyclopic Fault. There are five of these high resistivity zones.

High chargeability (C) are possible epithermal up-flow zones. There are three such zones within the chargeability zone and they are potentially gold mineralized.

Moderate Chargeability (DC) possible Propylitic Zone at 150 metres depth and below. This consists of two zones that are potentially part of the same zone.
