Rackla Metals Commences 2024 Exploration Program on Yukon and NWT Projects

03.06.2024  |  The Newswire
"Hit and Peak discoveries are the priority drill targets in 2024"

Vancouver, June 3, 2024 - Rackla Metals Inc. (TSX-V: RAK) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that field crews will be mobilizing to the Company's Yukon and NWT projects, including the Company's flagship Astro Plutonic Complex (APC), on June 6. The APC is located at the Yukon-NWT border and the project is road accessible, 240 km north of Ross River along the North Canol road.

The crews are looking forward to an exciting and promising season of exploration and discovery on its Tombstone Gold Belt properties. The 2024 exploration plans include:

Hit Target

The Hit target is hosted within a prominent corridor of intense sheeted quartz-sulphide veins within the 2.5 sq km Canol Trail Stock. In 2023, drill hole HIT-003 intersected 0.248 g/t Au over 129.8 m including 0.668 g/t gold over 16.5 m and 0.607 g/t gold over 13.5 m. Hole HIT-004 drilled from the same drill pad in the opposite direction intersected 0.516 g/t gold over 45.5 m. Both holes encountered sheeted quartz-sulphide veins throughout the full length of the holes and the gold intercepts had a strong gold-bismuth-tellurium-arsenic correlation, typical of a Reduced Intrusion mineralizing system.

Rackla plans to expand on the geological mapping, prospecting and soil sampling program from 2023 to further define and expand on this target. The Company will also conduct 3,000 m diamond drilling to vector in on the core of the Reduced Intrusion-Related Gold System (RIRGS).

Peak Target

The Peak target is hosted in the Kelvin Stock 11 km south of the Hit target. At Peak, on the eastern flank of the intrusion a soil anomaly measuring 1.5 km by 1.0 km has been defined. It is a robust anomaly with coincident gold, arsenic and bismuth, typical of a RIRGS target. Prospecting and rock sampling at Peak returned a high percentage of samples containing greater than 1.0 g/t gold. Twenty percent, or 49 out of 237 rock samples collected on the property have returned >1.0 g/t gold with the highest value being 17.8 g/t gold. The gold occurs primarily in sheeted quartz-arsenopyrite-bismuth veins that occur in the sedimentary rocks along the eastern margin of the Kelvin Stock. The veins trend north-northeasterly and individual veins can be traced for hundreds of meters. The vein system has been traced for 1 km along strike and 1.5 km across strike.

In 2024, Rackla will undertake a maiden drill program at Peak with a first phase consisting of 1,000 m in 6 to 7 holes. The geophysical signature at Peak indicates that the intrusive contact dips shallowly eastward, under the sediments. Rackla will be testing this with the drill holes and is hopeful that the underlying intrusion hosts gold-bearing sheet quartz veins that are feeding the veins observed in the sediments on surface. The Company will also be expanding on the mapping, prospecting and soil sampling coverage in 2024.

Simon Ridgway, CEO commented: "Our team is excited to be getting back into the field following the RIRGS discoveries at HiT and Peak in 2023. The priority for the 2024 exploration program is a significant drill program on HIT, to vector towards the heart of the RIRGS target, and a maiden drill program on Peak to test the high-grade gold bearing sheeted veins identified last season. The Company will also be advancing several of its other 100% owned earlier stage projects in the belt."
