Core Viewpoint - Metals Creek Resources Corp. has successfully completed a surface trenching program in the Naybob West Zone, expanding mineralization and further defining gold mineralization in the Ogden Gold Project, a joint venture with Discovery Silver Corp [1][5]. Group 1: Trenching Program Details - The trenching program followed a prospecting/mapping initiative that revealed high-grade gold mineralization ranging from 0.054 grams per tonne (g/t) to 12.3 g/t [2]. - The program aimed to define the orientation and nature of gold mineralization while expanding the strike extent of the mineralization zone both east and west [2][3]. - Trenching successfully expanded mineralization along strike for approximately 70 meters, with structural folding indicating a change in orientation from easterly to north-easterly [3]. Group 2: Geological Characteristics - The mineralization is hosted within a broad zone of strong to intense alteration, characterized by fuchsite, sericite, silicification, and iron carbonate, with a minimum width of 30 meters [2]. - The alteration zone includes quartz flooding, disseminated pyrite, arsenopyrite, and local galena, indicating potential for gold mineralization [2][3]. - The presence of tourmaline veinlets is noted as a key indicator for potential gold mineralization [3]. Group 3: Additional Exploration Activities - Six lines of soil sampling were conducted along the interpreted strike of the alteration package, although additional trenching could not be completed due to winter conditions [4]. - All samples from the trenching program were sent to Activation Laboratories in Thunder Bay, Ontario, with assay results pending [9]. Group 4: Project Overview - The Ogden Gold Project is located within the Timmins Gold Camp and covers an 8 km strike length of the Porcupine-Destor Break, a significant conduit for gold mineralization [5][10]. - Metals Creek Resources holds a 50% interest in the Ogden Gold Property, which includes the former Naybob Gold mine [10].
