Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) has reported new high-grade gold drilling results from the Western Trend at its 100%-owned Moosehead Project. Key intersections include 23.83 g/t Au over 1.67m, 335.98 g/t Au over 0.45m, and 25.50 g/t Au over 1.00m.

The Western Trend mineralization has been defined to a depth of 165m down plunge, 100m vertically, and 145m along strike south of the trench. The company has planned 18 additional holes to expand mineralization depth and strike length. A conventional bulk sample is expected to begin in late Q1 or early Q2 2025.

The company is also working with Dr. David Coller to identify new drill test areas northwest of the Western Trend trench, focusing on historical intersections that didn't match previous geological models.

Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) ha riportato nuovi risultati di perforazione ad alta lega d'oro dal Trend Occidentale del suo progetto Moosehead, di cui possiede il 100%. Le principali intersezioni includono 23.83 g/t Au su 1.67m, 335.98 g/t Au su 0.45m e 25.50 g/t Au su 1.00m.

La mineralizzazione del Trend Occidentale è stata definita fino a una profondità di 165m in discesa, 100m verticalmente e 145m lungo la direzione sud della trincea. L'azienda ha pianificato ulteriori 18 fori di perforazione per espandere la profondità e la lunghezza della mineralizzazione. Un campione di massa convenzionale dovrebbe iniziare alla fine del primo trimestre o all'inizio del secondo trimestre del 2025.

L'azienda sta anche collaborando con il Dr. David Coller per identificare nuove aree di test di perforazione a nord-ovest della trincea del Trend Occidentale, concentrandosi su intersezioni storiche che non corrispondevano ai precedenti modelli geologici.

La mineralización de la Tendencia Oeste se ha definido hasta una profundidad de 165m en descenso, 100m verticalmente y 145m a lo largo de la dirección sur de la trinchera. La compañía ha planeado 18 agujeros adicionales para expandir la profundidad y la longitud de la mineralización. Se espera que una muestra a granel convencional comience a finales del primer trimestre o principios del segundo trimestre de 2025.

La compañía también está trabajando con el Dr. David Coller para identificar nuevas áreas de prueba de perforación al noroeste de la trinchera de la Tendencia Oeste, enfocándose en intersecciones históricas que no coincidían con los modelos geológicos anteriores.

소코맨 미네랄스 코퍼레이션 (SICNF)은 100% 소유하고 있는 무스헤드 프로젝트의 서쪽 추세에서 새로운 고품질 금 시추 결과를 보고했습니다. 주요 교차 지점으로는 23.83 g/t Au over 1.67m, 335.98 g/t Au over 0.45m, 25.50 g/t Au over 1.00m이 있습니다.

서쪽 추세의 광물화는 165m 깊이까지 정의되었으며, 수직으로는 100m, 트렌치의 남쪽에서는 145m까지 이어집니다. 회사는 광물화의 깊이와 범위를 확장하기 위해 18개의 추가 구멍을 계획했습니다. 전통적인 벌크 샘플링은 2025년 1분기 말 또는 2분기 초에 시작될 것으로 예상됩니다.

회사는 또한 데이비드 콜러 박사와 협력하여 서쪽 추세 트렌치의 북서쪽에 새로운 시추 테스트 영역을 식별하고 있으며, 이전 지질 모델과 일치하지 않는 역사적 교차 지점에 집중하고 있습니다.

La minéralisation de la Tendance Ouest a été définie jusqu'à une profondeur de 165m en profondeur, 100m verticalement et 145m le long de la direction sud de la tranchée. L'entreprise a prévu 18 trous supplémentaires pour étendre la profondeur et la longueur de la minéralisation. Un échantillon en vrac conventionnel devrait commencer à la fin du T1 ou au début du T2 2025.

L'entreprise travaille également avec le Dr David Coller pour identifier de nouvelles zones de test de forage au nord-ouest de la tranchée de la Tendance Ouest, en se concentrant sur des intersections historiques qui ne correspondaient pas aux anciens modèles géologiques.

Sokoman Minerals Corp. (SICNF) hat neue hochgradige Gold-Bohrergebnisse aus dem Western Trend seines zu 100% im Besitz befindlichen Moosehead-Projekts berichtet. Wichtige Intersektionen umfassen 23,83 g/t Au über 1,67m, 335,98 g/t Au über 0,45m und 25,50 g/t Au über 1,00m.

Die Mineralisierung des Western Trends wurde bis zu einer Tiefe von 165m abwärts, 100m vertical und 145m entlang der Strecke südlich des Grabens definiert. Das Unternehmen hat 18 weitere Löcher geplant, um die Mineralisierungstiefe und den Streckenverlauf zu erweitern. Eine konventionelle Bulkprobe wird voraussichtlich Ende Q1 oder Anfang Q2 2025 beginnen.

Das Unternehmen arbeitet auch mit Dr. David Coller zusammen, um neue Bohrtestgebiete nordwestlich des Western Trend Grabens zu identifizieren, wobei der Fokus auf historischen Intersektionen liegt, die nicht mit den vorherigen geologischen Modellen übereinstimmten.

Western Trend drilling continues to hit high-grade gold

St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador--(Newsfile Corp. - February 6, 2025) - Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) ("Sokoman" or the "Company") is pleased to provide, following the assay results press released on January 22, 2025, the remaining drill results from the Western Trend completed before Christmas 2024 at our 100%-owned Moosehead Project highlighted by the following:

MH-24-650: 23.83 g/t Au over 1.67 m incl. 59.38 g/t Au over 0.60 m from 43.65 m
MH-24-657: 335.98 g/t Au over 0.45 m from 104.55 m
MH-24-658: 25.50 g/t Au over 1.00 m from 92.95 m

(Assays are uncut, and drill lengths are shown. The estimated true thickness is believed to be 80 to 90% of the reported length. All assays were performed at Eastern Analytical in Springdale, Newfoundland. Reported assays are total pulp metallic assays.)

President and CEO Timothy Froude, P.Geo., states, "The Western Trend continues to deliver high-grade results, and the structure is holding up well and remains open to depth. The Western Trend drilling has resumed, and we have 18 holes proposed to expand the mineralization to depth and along strike to the south. The present drilling at the Western Trend will continue until the spring thaw. Drilling to date has defined the Western Trend mineralization to a depth of 165 m down plunge and 100 m vertically, and 145 m along strike to the south of the trench. This area is the proposed site for our conventional bulk sample, which we expect to be actively working on in late Q1 or early Q2 2025. We are working with Dr. David Coller to identify a drill test area northwest of the Western Trend trench. This area contains historical intersections that didn't match previous geological models. With new structural insights from our successful trenching and mapping program in late 2024, we are revisiting these intersections to better understand their potential.

Analytical Techniques / QA/QC

Samples, including duplicates, blanks, and standards, are submitted to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, Newfoundland, for gold analysis. All core samples submitted for assay are saw cut by Sokoman personnel, with one-half submitted for assay and one-half retained for reference. Samples are delivered in sealed bags directly to the lab by Sokoman personnel. Eastern Analytical Ltd. is an accredited assay lab that conforms to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. Samples with visible gold are submitted for total pulp metallics with a gravimetric finish. All other samples are analyzed by standard fire assay methods. Total pulp metallic analysis includes the entire sample being crushed to -10 mesh and then pulverized to 95% -150 mesh. The total sample is weighed and screened to 150 mesh; the +150-mesh fraction is fire-assayed for Au, and a 30 g subsample of the -150-mesh fraction is fire-assayed for Au, with a calculated weighted average of total Au in the sample reported as well. One blank and one industry-approved standard for every twenty samples submitted is included in the sample stream. Random duplicates of selected samples are analyzed in addition to the in-house standard and duplicate policies of Eastern Analytical Ltd. All reported assays are uncut.
