CORRECTION: Sokoman Hits 69.48 g/t Gold Over 4.85 m at Moosehead Gold Project in Central Newfoundland
Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) has reported significant gold drilling results from its Western Trend program at the Moosehead Project. Key highlights include intersections of 69.48 g/t Au over 4.85m (including 176.47 g/t Au over 1.90m), 40.89 g/t Au over 4.30m, and 26.72 g/t Au over 3.10m.
The drilling program completed 19 holes totaling 1,325m before the Christmas break, with assays reported for 13 holes. Notably, 9 of 13 holes contained visible gold. The Western Trend drilling has tested 100m of strike to 80m down dip, with the zone remaining open. The next phase of drilling will target deeper holes up to 165m down plunge and 100m vertically.
The company plans to resume drilling on January 27 with a minimum 10-hole program. Additionally, Sokoman is in discussions with Novamera for a surgical bulk sample at the Footwall Splay using proprietary technology in Q3 2025.
Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) ha riportato risultati significativi di perforazione in oro dal suo programma Western Trend presso il progetto Moosehead. I punti salienti includono intersezioni di 69.48 g/t Au su 4.85m (incluso 176.47 g/t Au su 1.90m), 40.89 g/t Au su 4.30m, e 26.72 g/t Au su 3.10m.
Il programma di perforazione ha completato 19 fori per un totale di 1.325m prima della pausa natalizia, con analisi riportate per 13 fori. È degno di nota che 9 dei 13 fori contenevano oro visibile. La perforazione nella Western Trend ha testato 100m di strike fino a 80m in profondità, con la zona che rimane aperta. La prossima fase di perforazione mirerà a fori più profondi fino a 165m in pendenza e 100m verticalmente.
La società prevede di riprendere la perforazione il 27 gennaio con un programma minimo di 10 fori. Inoltre, Sokoman è in discussioni con Novamera per un campione chirurgico in grandi quantità presso il Footwall Splay utilizzando tecnologia proprietaria nel terzo trimestre del 2025.

El programa de perforación completó 19 agujeros totalizando 1,325m antes del receso navideño, con análisis reportados para 13 agujeros. Notablemente, 9 de los 13 agujeros contenían oro visible. La perforación de Western Trend ha probado 100m de strike hasta 80m de profundidad, siendo la zona aún abierta. La próxima fase de perforación se enfocará en agujeros más profundos hasta 165m en pendiente y 100m verticalmente.
La empresa planea reanudar la perforación el 27 de enero con un programa mínimo de 10 agujeros. Además, Sokoman está en conversaciones con Novamera para una muestra quirúrgica a granel en el Footwall Splay utilizando tecnología propietaria en el tercer trimestre de 2025.
Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF)는 Moosehead 프로젝트의 Western Trend 프로그램에서 중요한 금 탐사 결과를 보고했습니다. 주요 하이라이트에는 69.48 g/t Au over 4.85m (여기에는 176.47 g/t Au over 1.90m 포함), 40.89 g/t Au over 4.30m, 그리고 26.72 g/t Au over 3.10m가 포함됩니다.
탐사 프로그램은 크리스마스 휴식 전에 1,325m에 달하는 19개의 구멍을 완료했으며, 13개의 구멍에 대한 분석 결과가 보고되었습니다. 특히 13개 구멍 중 9개는 가시적인 금을 포함하고 있었습니다. Western Trend 탐사는 수평으로 100m, 수직으로 80m를 시험했으며, 해당 지역은 여전히 열려 있습니다. 다음 탐사 단계는 깊이가 최대 165m에 이르는 구멍을 목표로 할 것입니다.
회사는 1월 27일 최소 10개 구멍 프로그램이라고 한 뒤 탐사를 재개할 계획입니다. 또한 Sokoman은 Novamera와 2025년 3분기에 독자적인 기술을 사용하여 Footwall Splay에서 외과적 대량 샘플에 대해 논의 중입니다.

Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) hat bedeutende Bohrergebnisse aus dem West-Trend-Programm des Moosehead-Projekts gemeldet. Zu den wichtigsten Ergebnissen gehören Schnittstellen von 69.48 g/t Au über 4.85m (einschließlich 176.47 g/t Au über 1.90m), 40.89 g/t Au über 4.30m und 26.72 g/t Au über 3.10m.
Das Bohrprogramm umfasste 19 Löcher mit einer Gesamtlänge von 1.325m vor der Weihnachtspause, wobei für 13 Löcher Analysen gemeldet wurden. Bemerkenswert ist, dass 9 von 13 Löchern sichtbares Gold enthielten. Die Bohrungen im West-Trend haben 100m Strike bis zu 80m abwärts getestet, wobei die Zone offen bleibt. Die nächste Bohrphase wird sich auf tiefere Löcher mit bis zu 165m Neigung und 100m vertikal konzentrieren.
Das Unternehmen plant, die Bohrarbeiten am 27. Januar mit einem Mindestprogramm von 10 Löchern wieder aufzunehmen. Darüber hinaus befindet sich Sokoman in Gesprächen mit Novamera für eine chirurgische Großprobe am Footwall Splay unter Verwendung proprietärer Technologie im dritten Quartal 2025.

Western Trend Orogenic Gold Mineralization Exhibits High Grades and Strong Continuity
ST. JOHN'S, NL / ACCESS Newswire / January 22, 2025 / Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC)(OTCQB:SICNF) ("Sokoman" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following results from the ongoing Western Trend diamond drilling program at the
MH-24-649 69.48 g/t Au over 4.85m incl. 176.47 g/t Au over 1.90 m from 41.60 m
MH-24-648 40.89 g/t Au over 4.30m incl. 74.08 g/t Au over 2.35 m from 47.20 m
MH-24-646 26.72 g/t Au over 3.10m incl. 40.56 g/t Au over 1.90 m from 28.30 m
Assays are uncut with core lengths shown; the estimated true thickness is believed to be 80 to
Timothy Froude, P.Geo., President and CEO, states, "This is a great way to start the year! We are incredibly pleased with the high grades, with visible gold (including abundant visible gold) in 9 of 13 holes from the Western Trend (Photo 1). The success of the drilling was the result of using what we learned from the Western Trend trenching program last November, which included input from structural consultant Dr. David Coller, who mapped the trench. The Western Trend drilling is scheduled to resume on January 27 with a minimum 10-hole program to further expand the high-grade mineralization in the trench (Figure 1), the site of the planned conventional (drill and blast) bulk sample. We are also in discussions with Novamera to finalize an agreement for a surgical bulk sample at the adjacent Footwall Splay utilizing their proprietary technology in Q3 2025, so it will be a pivotal and very busy 2025 at Moosehead."
The recent Western Trend drilling has tested 100 m of strike to 80 m down dip, with the zone remaining open. The remaining assays are expected in 3-4 weeks. The next phase of drilling will be mainly deeper holes targeting the high-grade plunge of the intersection point between the east-west trending splay and the main north-trending vein system (down plunge from MH-24-648 and 649) to a depth of 165 m down plunge and 100 m vertically. This area is a key target as it is a location where rock preparation is ideal for gold deposition with the potential to be where there is dilation zone. We will also be testing to the south of the trench (south of MH-24-646) to extend the strike to 145 m.
