22.7.2021 22:11:16 CEST | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
CRANBROOK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 22, 2021 / Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSXV:EPL) and Canter Capital Corp. (a private B corporation) have executed a formal agreement whereby Canter holds the exclusive right to earn a 60% interest in EPL's 100%-owned Schott's Lake copper-zinc project by completing $5,000,000 in exploration expenditures, making $500,000 in cash payments and issuing 1,000,000 common shares to Eagle Plains over a four year period. A 2% NSR is reserved for Eagle Plains, which may be reduced to 1% upon payment by Canter of $1M. The claims cover an area of 2,160ha located in northeastern Saskatchewan, 40 km northwest of Flin Flon, Manitoba. Access to the property is gained via winter road and/or float plane.
Eagle Plains has recently completed a ground-based electromagnetic survey over 6.5 line-kms, covering known mineralization and surveying areas interpreted to have high potential. 3-D modelling of existing drill hole data is now underway. The objective of the 2021program is to identify possible down-plunge extensions of the existing deposit and search for similar mineralization elsewhere in the property.
See Schott's Lake property details here.
Schott's Lake Geology and History
The Schott's Lake property hosts metamorphic and intrusive rocks which are dominantly volcanic in origin and associated with an island arc environment. The rocks are folded into an easterly-dipping synform. Mineralization was first discovered in 1953 by Kay Lake Mines. A total of 79 drill holes have been completed for a total of 9516m (31,200') and a historical resource of 1,983,850 tonnes grading 0.61% copper and 1.35% zinc (Aur Resources, 2003-SDMI 0320). Notably, the historical resource did not include precious metal enrichment and/or cobalt. Eagle Plains' management considers these estimates to be historical in nature and cautions that a Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources or mineral reserves in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. These estimates do not comply with current definitions prescribed by National Instrument 43-101 or the Canadian Institute of Mining and are disclosed only as indications of the presence of mineralization and are considered to be a guide for additional work. The historical models and data sets used to prepare these historical estimates are not available to Eagle Plains, nor are any more recent resource estimates or drill information on the Property.
Mineralization at Schott's Lake consists of semi-massive to massive pyrrhotite and pyrite with associated chalcopyrite (copper) and sphalerite (zinc) mineralization. The Schott's Lake deposit is interpreted to be a typical exhalative massive sulphide zone. The mineralized zone has an average thickness of 20.4m, is overturned and lies on the eastern limb of a major north-easterly plunging fold. The deepest mineralized intercept is at a vertical depth of 266 meters with mineralization open to depth.
The following table outlines significant historical drill intercepts:
