St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. [CSE-[CSE-SX; OTCQB-SXOOF; FSE-85G1]reported outcomes of the 2023 drilling program at the business’s Manicouagan important and tactical mineral task within the Nitassinan of Pessamit on the Quebec North Shore. An overall of 5 holes were finished in addition to one hole extension that was deepened from the 2022 drilling program. All for an overall of 1,421 metres.
Holes MN23-1 through MN23-3 checked the analyzed eastern astrobleme recognized by geophysical reactions. The large spaced holes converged 2 to 3 zones of distributed nickel-cobalt-chrome mineralization with periodic Platinum Group Elements worths.
Thick intercepts as much as 87 metres grading 0.28% nickel, 0.11% chromium and 0.012% cobalt from surface area in hole MN23-1.
Hole MN23-2 was drilled 360 metres southwest of MN23-01. Hole 2 converged 91.3 metres from surface area grading 0.24% nickel, 0.29% chromium, 0.011% cobalt and consisted of a 5-metre area grading 0.46% nickel, 0,12% chromium, and 0.012% cobalt with 0.515 g/t integrated platinum & & palladium.
Hole MN23-03 converged 56.4 metres grading 0.21% nickel, 0.21% chromium and 0.011% cobalt from surface area. Each hole consisted of 20 to 24% magnesium within the host rock recommending an ultramafic origin.
Anomalous PGEs were discovered periodically throughout each of the 3 holes.
Holes 4 and 5 targeted abnormalities recommended from the downhole electro-magnetic (EM) studies carried out in early 2023.
MN23-04 did not converge substantial nickel however did experience a 1-metre period of anomalous copper at 0.14%, and more significantly, 1 metre grading 1.35 g/t PGE without any connection to any base metals. This period might recommend possible for distributed PGE mineralization in other places in the system which has actually not formerly been recognized. The EM conductor was not apparent within the developments came across.
Hole MN23-05 converged 2 reasonably narrow, low-grade zones of nickel-chrome-cobalt at around the best elevation showed as an EM conductor. 2 thick strong zones (57 and 43 metres) of iron were converged in between the Ni-Cr-Co zones recognized above. These worths depended on 34% Fe over 1 metre and balanced 17% Fe and 13% Fe respectively.
Due to the substantial worths in the whole PGE suite (platinum, palladium, iridium, osmium, rhodium and ruthenium), St-Georges has actually pulled samples from historical drilling to re-assay for the whole suite of PGEs. A number of zones of top-quality mineralization including Ni-Cu-Co-As were discovered to consist of substantial worths in the remainder of the PGE suite.
An overall of over 600 core samples are being checked for the complete PGE suite. The substantial included worth to mineralization discovered on the Project might assist offer more meaning to targeting of future drill holes.
Herb Duerr, president, commented: “… I am delighted by the newest drill results for Manicouagan. … There is a tested passage a minimum of 7 kilometers in length and 2 km in width with both shared and huge base and rare-earth elements. … Further work will be performed in a future drill program that is currently being created and allowed.”
St-Georges checks out for nickel & & PGEs on the Manicouagan and Julie Projects on Quebec’s North Shore and has numerous expedition jobs in Iceland, consisting of the Thor Gold Project.
