Friday, March 1, 2024

Shallow High-Grade Intersections Include 23.5m @ 1.18% Cu, 1.46% Zn, 6.8 g/t Au (7.4% CuEq)

Key Points: 
  • The intersection lies only 20m below surface and includes some of the highest gold grades ever discovered at Sherridon.
  • The high gold and copper grades over a broad interval highlight the potential of VHMS style of mineralization in complexly folded host rocks.
  • Gold results in hole SHN23005 were re-checked with screen fire assay to overcome potential coarse gold analytical issues.
  • The most significant drill intersections of copper ("Cu"), zinc ("Zn"), gold ("Au"), and silver ("Ag") are provided below and in Table 2.

Thursday, February 8, 2024

Near Surface High Grade Intersections Include 10.0 m @ 2.74% CuEq

Key Points: 
  • The high grades demonstrate the potential provided by the VHMS style of mineralization which is common throughout the region.
  • These high grades will provide Sherridon a momentum not seen for many years, as we are encouraged to expand our exploration programs.
  • The current T2 Metals drilling campaign further delineates shallow-dipping and plunging massive sulphide lenses and extends the historical drilling results by the previous explorers.
  • Many geophysical follow-up opportunities and key VHMS-associated structural controls exist at Sherridon which provide additional high-value targets for planned 2024 drill programs.

Thursday, January 25, 2024

Near Surface High Grade Intersections Include 9.3 m @ 3.09% CuEq

Key Points: 
  • The 2023 Q4 drill program was the first completed by T2 Metals at the project, and the first at Sherridon in over a decade.
  • The most significant sulphide-mineralized drill intersections of copper ("Cu"), zinc ("Zn"), gold ("Au"), and silver ("Ag") are listed below and provided in Table 2.
  • = Zn(%) + ((Cu(%) * Cu(USD/t)) + (Pb(%) * Pb(USD/t)) + (Ag(g/t) * (Ag(USD/oz)/31.1) * 100) + (Au(g/t) * (Au(USD/oz)/31.1) * 100)) / Zn(USD/t)
    Mark Saxon, CEO of T2 Metals Corp., said, "We are very pleased with these first drill results from the Sherridon drilling program.
  • They can be very high grade and are regularly gold enriched, with large very long-life deposits being "company-makers" (eg the founding of Rio Tinto).

Monday, July 10, 2023

The inferred mineral resource in this resource estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an indicated mineral resource and must not be converted to a mineral reserve.

Key Points: 
  • The inferred mineral resource in this resource estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an indicated mineral resource and must not be converted to a mineral reserve.
  • It is reasonably expected that a majority of the inferred mineral resource could be upgraded to an indicated mineral resource with continued exploration.
  • Copper equivalent resources for the Pine Bay Project were calculated using the following metal prices: Cu at US$3.25/lb, Zn US$1.20/lb, Au at US$1,850/oz, Ag at US$22.50/oz.
  • The Pine Bay Project, consists of a group of 77 contiguous mineral claims (dispositions) and one Mineral Lease totaling 6,795 hectares.
