9.8.2021 15:02:17 CEST | ACCESS Newswire | Press release
CRANBROOK, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 9, 2021 / Taiga Gold Corp. (CSE:TGC) ("Taiga") has been notified by partner Tactical Resources Corp. (formerly DJ1 Capital Corp.-a private B.C. company) that a field crew has been mobilized to commence exploration activity at the Company's 100% owned SAM property (the "Property") located in Saskatchewan, approximately 15 km west of Flin-Flon, Manitoba and 10km northwest of the past producing Flexar and Birch Lake mines. The Property is contiguous with Cameco and SSR Mining Inc. (formerly Silver Standard Resources Inc.) and is located within the Trans-Hudson Corridor, a geological belt which has historically been significantly under-explored in Saskatchewan. Fieldwork will be carried out by TerraLogic Exploration Services of Cranbrook, BC
Tactical holds the exclusive option to earn up to a 60% interest in the Property over a four-year period by making cash payments totaling $CDN 500,000; issuing to Taiga 1,000,000 voting class common shares and completing $CDN 4,000,000 in exploration expenditures. Taiga will retain an over-riding 2% NSR on the property and will serve as project operator until the completion of the 60% earn-in by Tactical.
SAM Property History and Geology
A summary map outlining pertinent features of the property may be found here
The property is dominantly underlain by the Amisk Group Collage which forms a major greenstone belt that hosts gold deposits and the majority of base metal deposits in the Flin Flon - Snow Lake areas. Seven documented mineral occurrences are reported on the property including both orogenic gold and VMS style copper-zinc mineralization.
Historical work includes geologic mapping, trenching, soil surveys, airborne and ground geophysical surveys, and 71 short drill holes (6496m total). The first documented work on the property was in 1952-56 when Hudson Bay Exploration completed 43 drillholes targeting VMS mineralization identified by ground EM survey anomalies. Other drill programs in 1978-80 (Granges), 1985 (SMDC) and 2000 (Aur Resources) focused on both VMS and gold targets. St. Eugene Mining completed a heliborne VTEM geophysical survey in 2011. The property was acquired in 2015 by Eagle Plains Resources and later transferred to Taiga as part of a plan of arrangement completed in April 2018.
Taiga completed fieldwork on the property in 2018 including geological mapping, prospecting, rock sampling and soil geochemical surveys, focusing on targets generated by a comprehensive geological compilation of all existing historic data. Historical drill collar locations were surveyed by GPS and a total of 783 soil samples and 59 rock samples were collected. The property area was expanded by staking in 2020.
Historical trench sampling of the Wolverine Zone reportedly returned 24.61 g/t gold over 1.0m (Saskatchewan Mineral Deposit Index "SMDI" 2226), while Golden Bear trenches reported values ranging from trace quantities to a high of 9.61 g/t gold over 1.55m (SMDI 2558).
Much of the historical work was focused on VMS style mineralization though Taiga management considers the project to hold considerable potential for the presence of structurally controlled gold mineralization, which will be the focus of future work. Mineralization at the SAM has been defined over a strike length of 200 m, a width of up to 50 m and has been traced to a depth of 200 m by 19 drill-holes. Gold grades vary with the highest grades associated with sections that contain significant sphalerite. Highlights from historic SAM zone drilling include:
DDH # | Depth (m) | Width (m) | Au (g/t) | Cu (%) | Zn (%) |
SAM 68-80 | 45-47.1 | 2.1 | 2.56 | 3.26 | 0.18 |
SAM 70-80 | 28-29.6 | 1.6 | 1.65 | 4.48 | 0.24 |
SAM 72-80 | 69.4-72.5 | 3.1 | 1.85 | 5.52 | 0.33 |
Mineralization is open to depth and limited drill testing of the prospective conductive trend west and east of the SAM zone intersected low grade sulphide mineralization.
Management cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate land are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the subject properties. The technical information presented above is repeated for historical reference only and cannot be relied upon as the Company's QP, as defined under NI-43-101 has not prepared nor verified the historical information. All drill intercepts are drill indicated lengths. Insufficient technical information exists to demonstrate the true widths of these intersections. All of the technical information is derived from public documents available through the Saskatchewan Government Ministry of the Economy.
Technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by C.C. Downie, P.Geo., a director and officer of Taiga Gold Corp., identified as the "Qualified Person" under N.I. 43-101.

Review of 31 Studies Finds Vegan Dog Food and Vegan Cat Food Are Well Digested30.7.2026 21:00:00 CEST | Press release
LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / July 30, 2026 / A new scientific review has found that nutritionally sound vegan dog food, vegan cat food and vegetarian pet diets are generally well digested and broadly comparable to conventional meat-based diets. The review, published in the journal Animals, examined 31 existing studies assessing the digestibility of vegan, vegetarian and plant-based pet diets and ingredients in dogs and cats. Twenty-two studies focused on dogs, two on cats and seven included both species. The review found that across a wide range of study designs, dietary ingredients and digestibility measures, vegan and vegetarian diets consistently showed high digestibility and were not normally significantly less digestible than conventional meat-based diets. Digestibility is an important factor because it indicates how effectively animals can absorb and utilise nutrients from food. While modern commercial plant-based pet foods are generally formulated to provide all essential nutr

New GTDC Research Illuminates Distribution's Expanding Role in Modern Technology Ecosystems29.7.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
TAMPA, FL / ACCESS Newswire / July 29, 2026 / The Global Technology Distribution Council (GTDC), the world's largest consortium of technology distributors, today released a new research report, The Evolving Role of Distribution in Technology Go-To-Market Models, developed in partnership with Channelnomics. The study examines the shift in distribution from a traditional channel intermediary into a strategic operating platform that helps vendors and partners scale, increase support and overcome the complexities associated with innovation (i.e., AI and cybersecurity) and integration. According to the research, customer expectations are rising rapidly as organizations seek integrated outcomes across AI, cybersecurity, hybrid cloud, automation, analytics and managed services. Vendors and partners increasingly struggle to meet those market demands independently with solutions requiring cross-platform integration, multi-vendor coordination, lifecycle support and operational consistency.
