GOLDEN SABLE OVERVIEW

PROPERTY SIZE:

1,537 hectares over two claim blocks (East & West)


DEPOSIT MODEL:  

Intrusive-related gold (low-grade bulk-tonnage)


EXPLORATION STAGE:  

Drill-Ready


LOCATION & INFRASTRUCTURE: 

Great access via numerous well maintained active logging roads. The city of Kamloops is only a 175 km drive from the property (2.5 hours).


GEOLOGICAL SETTING:

The property lies within the Quesnel tectonic terrane that hosts many of British Columbia’s active and past-producing gold mines. Middle to Upper Triassic volcanics and sedimentary rocks of the Nicola Group underlie the claim blocks. The property straddles the margin of a large early Jurassic hornblende-biotite granodiorite pluton with prevalent younger mafic and andesite dikes.    


This property represents a brand-new gold discovery (2018) in the under-explored heavily glaciated Bonaparte Plateau. The past producing Vidette Lake gold mine is the closest significant deposit, located 15 km south of the Tulox property. 


EXPLORATION HISTORY AND HIGHLIGHTS:

A 3-kilometer-long gold-in-soil anomaly that remains open to south-east was established between 2006 – 2013 by Amarc Resources. 


An inaugural drill program (1,339 meters) by Sable Resources in 2018 encountered gold mineralization in 5 of 7 blind drill holes testing the soil anomaly. The best intersection was 24 m @ 0.83 g/t Au, incl 10 m @ 1.4 g/t Au, incl 4 m @ 2.4 g/t Au. 


Gold mineralization is hosted in mafic and intermediate dyke swarms tending northwest – southeast and closely associated with a Cretaceous age granitic contact. 


No follow-up drilling has been conducted to date and the majority of the 3-kilometer-long gold-in-soil anomaly remains un-tested. 


RECOMMENDED WORK:

The recent construction of both wildfire and logging road networks near hole T-DDH-18-002 (which encountered the best gold mineralization in 2018) has exposed a significant amount of bedrock that should be sampled and mapped. In particular, the orientations of the mineralized mafic and andesite dyke swarms should be determined and used for planning a detailed follow up diamond drill program.   


Furthermore, a large-scale, cost-effective revere circulation (RC) drill program is recommended to test the length of the gold-in-soil anomaly. Continued soil sampling to the south-east should be completed with intentions of extending the known the gold-in-soil anomaly.
