Origen Mobilizes Field Crew to the Wishbone Property
Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) has initiated exploration on its 100% owned Wishbone Property in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. The property, adjacent to Teck and Newmont's Galore Creek project, boasts high-grade gold and silver potential. Key highlights include:
- Gold in soil samples up to 8.5 ppm
- Rock grab samples exceeding 100 ppm gold
- 9 km strike of gold and silver-rich surface samples
The 2024 work program will focus on soil sampling along the 'Windy Target' and prospecting newly exposed areas around the 'Central Glacier'. Previous drilling in 1987 intersected gold in veins, with one interval returning 7.7 metres of 3.2 ppm gold. Recent samples from glacier-edge boulders yielded 203 ppm and 175.5 ppm gold, with the source yet to be identified.
Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) ha avviato l'esplorazione sulla sua proprietà Wishbone, di cui detiene il 100%, nel Golden Triangle della Columbia Britannica. La proprietà, adiacente al progetto Galore Creek di Teck e Newmont, vanta un alto potenziale di oro e argento. I punti salienti includono:
- Oro nei campioni di suolo fino a 8,5 ppm
- Campioni di roccia superiori a 100 ppm di oro
- 9 km di campioni superficiali ricchi di oro e argento
Il programma di lavoro per il 2024 si concentrerà su campionamenti di suolo lungo il 'Windy Target' e su prospezioni di aree recentemente esposte intorno al 'Central Glacier'. I precedenti fori di sondaggio del 1987 hanno intercettato oro in vene, con un intervallo che ha restituito 7,7 metri di 3,2 ppm di oro. Campioni recenti prelevati da massi ai bordi del ghiacciaio hanno fornito 203 ppm e 175,5 ppm di oro, con la fonte ancora da identificare.

La propiedad, adyacente al proyecto Galore Creek de Teck y Newmont, cuenta con alto potencial de oro y plata. Los aspectos destacados incluyen:
- Oro en muestras de suelo de hasta 8.5 ppm
- Muestras de roca que superan los 100 ppm de oro
- 9 km de muestras superficiales ricas en oro y plata
El programa de trabajo para 2024 se centrará en muestreo de suelo a lo largo del 'Windy Target' y en exploración de áreas recién expuestas alrededor del 'Central Glacier'. Los trabajos de perforación previos en 1987 intersectaron oro en venas, con un intervalo que devolvió 7.7 metros de 3.2 ppm de oro. Muestras recientes de rocas en el borde del glaciar arrojaron 203 ppm y 175.5 ppm de oro, y la fuente aún no ha sido identificada.
오리젠 리소스 주식회사 (CSE: ORGN)는 브리티시 컬럼비아의 골든 트라이앵글에 위치한 100% 자산인 위시본 재산에서 탐사를 시작했습니다. 이 자산은 테크와 뉴몬트의 갈로어 크릭 프로젝트와 인접해 있으며, 고등급 금과 은의 잠재력을 자랑합니다. 주요 하이라이트는 다음과 같습니다:
- 토양 샘플에서 최대 8.5 ppm의 금
- 100 ppm 이상의 금이 포함된 암석 샘플
- 9 km에 걸쳐 금과 은이 풍부한 표면 샘플
2024년 작업 프로그램은 '윈디 타겟'을 따라 토양 샘플링에 집중하고, '중앙 빙하' 주위의 새로 노출된 지역 탐사에 중점을 둘 것입니다. 1987년의 이전 드릴링에서는 금이 포함된 정맥과 교차하였으며, 한 구간은 7.7m에서 3.2ppm의 금이 확인되었습니다. 최근 빙하 가장자리에 있는 바위에서 203ppm과 175.5ppm의 금 샘플이 나왔으나, 원천은 아직 확인되지 않았습니다.
Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) a initié des explorations sur sa propriété Wishbone, dont elle détient 100%, dans le Golden Triangle de la Colombie-Britannique. La propriété, adjacent au projet Galore Creek de Teck et Newmont, possède un fort potentiel en or et en argent. Les points forts incluent :
- Or dans des échantillons de sol jusqu'à 8,5 ppm
- Échantillons de roche dépassant 100 ppm d'or
- 9 km de samples en surface riches en or et en argent
Le programme de travail 2024 se concentrera sur le prélèvement d’échantillons de sol le long de la 'Windy Target' et la prospection de nouvelles zones exposées autour du 'Central Glacier'. Des forages antérieurs en 1987 ont intersecté de l'or dans des veines, avec un intervalle reportant 7,7 mètres de 3,2 ppm d'or. Des échantillons récents de roches au bord du glacier ont donné 203 ppm et 175,5 ppm d'or, la source n'ayant pas encore été identifiée.
Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) hat die Erkundung begonnen auf seinem 100% im Besitz befindlichen Wishbone-Gelände im Golden Triangle von British Columbia. Das Gelände, das an das Galore Creek-Projekt von Teck und Newmont angrenzt, weist hochgradiges Gold- und Silberpotential auf. Zu den wichtigsten Höhepunkten gehören:
- Gold in Bodenproben von bis zu 8,5 ppm
- Felsproben mit über 100 ppm Gold
- 9 km Streifen von gold- und silberreichen Oberflächenproben
Das Arbeitsprogramm 2024 wird sich auf Bodenproben entlang des 'Windy Target' konzentrieren und neu freigelegte Bereiche rund um den 'Central Glacier' prospektieren. Bei früheren Bohrungen im Jahr 1987 wurden Goldadern durchbohrt, wobei ein Intervall 7,7 Meter mit 3,2 ppm Gold ergab. Jüngste Proben von Gletscherrandblöcken ergaben 203 ppm und 175,5 ppm Gold, deren Quelle noch identifiziert werden muss.
- 100% ownership of high-grade gold and silver project in the Golden Triangle
- Gold in soil samples up to 8.5 ppm, indicating strong mineralization potential
- Rock grab samples exceeding 100 ppm gold from both sides of a receding glacier
- 9 km strike of gold and silver-rich surface samples, suggesting extensive mineralization
- Previous drilling intersected gold in veins, with one interval returning 7.7 metres of 3.2 ppm gold
- Source of high-grade gold boulders (203 ppm and 175.5 ppm) not yet identified
- Exploration is still in early stages, with no defined resource estimates
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 29, 2024) - Origen Resources Inc. (CSE: ORGN) (FSE: 4VXA) (the "Company" or "Origen") Origen is pleased to announce the start of exploration on its
Project Highlights
100% owned high grade gold and silver project located in the centre of the Golden Triangle in northwestern BC.- Gold in soil samples of up to 8.5 ppm gold with the underlying source currently unknown.
- Rock grab samples1 of greater than 100 ppm gold coming from both sides of a rapidly receding glacier.
- 9 km strike of gold and silver rich surface samples.
Field teams will conduct a soil sampling program that aims to test along strike of the 'Windy Target', where 2023 soil samples returned strongly anomalous values highlighted by one sample returning 8.5 ppm gold. All nine drill holes completed in 1987 on the Windy Target intersected gold in a series of veins with one interval returning 7.7 metres of 3.2 ppm gold. Subsequent soil sampling revealed an area to the south of the 1987 drilling area with very high values of gold in soil - the extent of this southern soil anomaly will be in the focus of the upcoming work program.

The team will also prospect newly exposed areas around the 'Central Glacier' testing large scale structures that were identified by interpretation of 2020 aerial geophysics and extend underneath ice cover. 2023 field samples from boulders found along the southern edge of the Central Glacier returned 203 ppm gold in an area that was previously identified as being a primary silver rich zone1. This sample is compared to the 175.5 ppm gold sample collected from a glacial boulder on the northern edge of the same glacier in 20211. No source has been found for these high-grade boulders to date.

1Grab samples are by definition selective. Grab samples are solely designed to show the presence or absence of mineralization, and are not intended to provide nor should be construed as a representative indication of grade or mineralization at the Project.
2 Referenced nearby historic resources, deposits and mines provide geologic context for the Project, but are not necessarily indicative that the Project hosts similar potential, size or grades of mineralization.
