Core Viewpoint - Melkior Resources Inc. is set to initiate a follow-up exploration drill program at the Carscallen Gold Property, focusing on expanding gold mineralization in the 1010 Zone and exploring new opportunities at the Northwest Prospect, located approximately 25 kilometers west of Timmins [1][2]. Exploration Program Highlights - The upcoming drill program will consist of 6 holes totaling approximately 1,725 meters, targeting the NNW-SSE trend and the 1010 Zone structural corridor [1]. - The 1010 structural-mineralized corridor has the potential to extend over 1,500 meters in length, similar to the Zamzam-Jowsey-Shenkman Zone, and aims to test high-grade ore shoots at depth [2]. The 1010 Gold Zone - The 1010 gold zone features multiple shear-hosted quartz-sulphide veins, with significant gold mineralization often steeply dipping and reaching over 500 meters in length [3]. - Recent surface exploration is focused on expanding gold-bearing mineralization outside the main zones, with additional high-grade ore shoots identified [4]. Northwest Zone - The Northwest Zone, located about 500 meters north of the 1010 gold showings, is characterized by gold-in-soil anomalies and geophysical signatures similar to known mineralized zones [5]. - Two shallow drill holes are planned to assess the gold mineralization potential in this unexplored area [5]. Significant Historical Intercepts - Notable historical intercepts from the Zamzam and Shenkman Zones include: - CAR-19-03A: 23.5 g/t Au over 8 meters - CAR-20-05: 25.7 g/t Au over 6 meters - CAR-71-2011: 5.1 g/t Au over 13.25 meters [6]. Drill Permit Status - The drill permit application for the proposed drilling has been submitted to the Ontario Government and is currently awaiting approval [6].
