Fancamp Initiates IP Survey on its Clinton and Stoke Projects

30.01.2023  |  GlobeNewswire

VANCOUVER, Jan. 30, 2023 - Fancamp Exploration Ltd. ("Fancamp" or the "Corporation") (TSX Venture Exchange: FNC) is pleased to announce the initiation of a 45-line-kilometre ground Induced Polarization ("IP") geophysical survey on its Clinton and Stoke Projects, located in the Eastern Townships of Quebec (Figure 1). Both Clinton and Stoke Projects have been subject to recent drilling campaigns; a total of 1,294 metres across 6 holes were drilled during Q1-2022 in the northern part of the Clinton property with success validating the extension of historical lens "A" to a minimum of 100 metres along strike and at shallow depth, and 1,119 metres across 3 holes were drilled during Q2-2022 at the Stoke property which successfully intersected a mineralized trend to a vertical depth of approximately 250 metres.

The intended IP surveys will be conducted in areas where known copper mineralization had been identified during past exploration work, including, and following on the recent drill programs completed during Spring 2022 on both respective properties (Figure 1). Refer to press releases dated June 14th, 2022, August 17th, 2022, and September 8th, 2022, for previous exploration program results.

Notably, drilling over the historical copper rich AB lens at the Clinton Project had delineated the extension of mineralization along strike, while drilling at the Stoke Project identified a large VMS type hydrothermal system that could be related to historical copper rich intersections defined during past drilling (Refer to press releases dated June 14th, 2022, and August 17th, 2022).

The IP survey at Clinton will target the Southern extension of a favorable geological horizon which hosts the past producing Clinton "O" mine and the known massive sulphide lenses containing historical non-compliant NI 43-101 resources of 1.52Mt at 2.02% Cu and 1.54% Zn (MRNFQ Fiche de Gite 21E07-0007) (Figure 2).

The IP survey at Stoke will target the North-East extension of known mineralization observed at the Copper Zone (7.29% Cu over 6.40 metres in ST-2011-06 - GM66485) (Figure 3).

The IP results will be incorporated into 3D models for both Clinton and Stoke, respectively. This work will pave the way for Fancamp to generate greater interpretation of geological data and a comprehensive work plan of the unique Stoke-Weedon and Clinton volcano sedimentary VMS rich sequences.

About the Induced Polarization Method

IP survey is a geophysical method that injects electrical current into the ground through electrodes and measure the voltage response through electrodes. The method allows the measurement of chargeability and resistivity of the rock surveyed. Greater content of metallic sulphides, such as volcanic massive sulphides, will typically generate a stronger response than the host rock. IP surveys are thus a great tool to locate buried deposits in geological environment such as Clinton and Stoke.

Geosig Inc. of Quebec City, Quebec, is conducting the IP geophysical survey using a pole-dipole array along 200 metres spaced lines with readings every 37.5 metres (n=1 to 16 or 20).
