Hanna to Drill to Test VMS Target
March 23 2021 - 7:00AM
Hanna Capital Corp. (the “Company”), a publicly traded company
focused on raising capital for exploration mainly in the base metal
and resource sectors to provide investors with long-term capital
growth by investing in a portfolio of undervalued companies and
assets. One such asset is the Jasper Property which is wholly owned
by the Company. The property is located in west-central Vancouver
Island, British Columbia, and consists of 4 mineral claims covering
3978 hectares.
Recent geophysical work has suggested the
presence of a strong near horizontal unit which has been described
(Houle and Pezzot, 2018) as:
“a pervasive
near-surface high resistivity layer across the property, locally
underlain by a flat-lying to undulating but overall, gently
south-dipping low resistivity (conductive) layer at depths of 500
to 750 metres from surface may represent a metallic sulphide
target, possibly a VMS, epithermal or volcanic horizon that acts as
the source of the massive sulphide mineralization.”
The low resistivity geophysical signature could
either be a measure of:
- Soils and clays which are of no economic importance.
- A black argillacerous sedimentary horizon beneath the Bonanza
Group volcanics.
- Skarn mineralization, known to occur regionally.
- High sulphidation structurally controlled epithermal
mineralization, known to occur regionally.
- Volcanic hosted massive sulphide mineralization, known to occur
regionally.
Low resistivity geophysical signatures are shown
in the three selected sections and the location plan below.
The latter three of these possibilities
represent excellent exploration target. On this basis, the Company
has decided to initiate a drill program to test the target. It is
planned to drill at least 3 diamond core holes (with deflections if
necessary) to intersect the low resistivity zone at about 750m from
surface. A drill program of 3,000 meters has been proposed. The
Company will be finalizing a comprehensive budget and drill program
in the very near future.
Herb Brugh, President of the Company, says, “We
are looking forward to drilling these exciting targets on the
property, and the Company believes with these geophysical models,
and historical data from our dedicated, and experienced team, and
with the price of the copper and base metal market points to
nothing but a promising future for the the Company and its
shareholders.”
