SCOTTIE RESOURCES INTERCEPTS 8.78 G/T GOLD OVER 9.00 M AND 12.2 G/T OVER 3.47 M AT BLUEBERRY CONTACT ZONE
Scottie Resources has reported new assays from its 2024 drill program at the Scottie Gold Mine Project in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. Key highlights include intercepts of 8.78 g/t gold over 9.00 metres and 12.2 g/t gold over 3.47 metres at the Blueberry Contact Zone. The company also reported 12.0 g/t gold over 2.70 metres at a shallow depth of 17.5m in the Road vein zone. These results are part of the initial findings from their 10,000-metre drilling program, with more results pending. The company expects to release its maiden resource estimate in early Q2 2025.

The presented results represent early season, expansionary drill targets along the Blueberry Contact Zone and the D Zone. Expansionary drilling on the Blueberry Contact zone in 2024 targeted projected high-grade structurally hosted mineralization at depths of < 300 metres, in areas that would have a high confidence of being included in the upcoming resource estimate. Drilling of the D Zone sought to both confirm the orientations of previously identified gold bearing vein structures and increase the lateral and downdip drilled extent. The results from these first drill holes improved the understanding of mineralization at both locations and demonstrate the exploration upside of continued work around these two target areas.
About the Scottie Gold Mine Project
Exploration of the Scottie Gold Mine Project over the past 5 years has produced exceptional drill results through the discovery of high-grade gold in four new zones (Blueberry Contact Zone, Domino, D-Zone, P-Zone) and the expansion of previously drill confirmed targets (Scottie Gold Mine, C-Zone, Bend Vein, Stockwork). When depicted on a map of property scale geology (Figure 1) there is a clear spatial relation between the outcropping and drill-confirmed high-grade gold targets and the contact with the Jurassic aged, Texas Creek Plutonic suite intrusion. Geological work in the area has established strong connections between the various deposits. The chemical, mineralogical, structural, and age relationships of the deposits and host rocks support a genetic model whereby all deposits are linked to the same mineralizing event.
About the Blueberry Contact Zone
The Blueberry Contact Zone is located just 2 kilometres northeast of the
About the D Zone
The D Zone is located approximately halfway between the Blueberry Vein and the past-producing Scottie Gold Mine. Prior to Scottie's involvement the historic work on the zone included geological mapping, rock and chip sampling and limited drilling. Mineralization is vein controlled and is comparable to the vein types observed at both the SGM as well as the Blueberry Vein, but is entirely hosted in the andesite (like SGM). Historic drilling on the D Zone failed to produce results comparable to the numerous high-grade surficial samples associated with the zone (up to 53 g/t gold), likely due to poor targeting of the primary mineralized structure which is obscured by steep terrain and heavy vegetation. However, reinterpretation of existing data and exploration drilling by Scottie in 2022 revealed high-grade vein-controlled mineralization at D Zone, returning grades of 31.8 g/t Au over 4.00 metres and 6.82 g/t Au over 6.85 metres. The surficial expressions of the D Zone overlies an access tunnel which connects the A portal to the Scottie Gold Mine, that was put into reduce avalanche risk during the mine's operation (Figure 1).
