Prospector Metals has completed a VTEMTM geophysical survey and 2-week prospecting program at its Devon Nickel-Copper Project in Northwest Ontario. The survey identified 44 high-priority Ni-Cu targets as late-time conductors within or near Pigeon River ultramafic dykes. Field sampling yielded up to 0.46% Cu and 0.172% Ni from previously unrecognized targets. The 12,200-hectare project, located 50km SW of Thunder Bay, is road accessible and hosts numerous mafic-ultramafic intrusions. Previous 2023 sampling returned up to 1.125% Cu, 0.53% Ni, and 3.54 g/t Pd+Pt. Detailed 3D modeling is underway to refine drill targets.
Prospector Metals Corp. (TSXV: PPP) (OTCQB: PMCOF) reports significant assay results from its 2024 exploration program at the ML Project in Yukon Territory. Key findings include:
1. Extended high-grade Ag-Pb-Zn footprint at the Lorrie Lake area, with samples yielding up to 2,049 g/t Ag, 34.26% Pb, and 5.08% Zn.
2. The known Ag-Pb-Zn mineralized area potentially extends up to 1 km.
3. 18 grab samples assaying above 100 g/t Ag were found across numerous areas.
4. New surface discoveries in various zones, including Vary Zone (up to 79.96 g/t Au) and Russer Zone (up to 16.22 g/t Au).
The exploration program included 520 rock grab and chip samples, geologic and structural mapping, and high-resolution LiDAR surveys. The results suggest a large mineralized system at ML, with potential for both intrusion-hosted and structurally-controlled mineralization.
Prospector Metals Corp. (TSXV: PPP) (OTCQB: PMCOF) has been awarded a $200,000 grant from the Ontario Junior Exploration Program (OJEP) for its Devon Ni-Cu Project in NW Ontario. The grant covers 50% of eligible exploration expenditures. Prospector has already incurred $250,000 in eligible expenditures for a property-wide VTEM geophysical survey and plans to spend an additional $150,000 on prospecting and ground truthing of geophysical anomalies.
The Devon Project, covering 12,200 hectares, is located 50km SW of Thunder Bay and is road accessible. Recent field work has yielded samples with up to 1.125% Cu, 0.53% Ni, and 3.54 g/t Pd+Pt. The project targets deposits analogous to Eagle & Eagle East (MI, USA), Tamarack (MN, USA), and Voisey's Bay Reed Brook Zone (NL). A 2-week field program to test geophysical targets has commenced, with results to be announced when available.
