SLAM Acquires New Gold Project
11 Maio 2023 - 8:30AM
SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“
SLAM” or
the “
Company”
on TSXV: SXL) is
pleased to announce it has entered into an option agreement (the
“
Option Agreement”) to acquire the Shadow Lake
gold property located on the Trans-Canada highway 15 kilometres
west of Saint John, New Brunswick (the
“
Property”). Previous workers reported 7 recent
gold discoveries with grab samples ranging up to 70.4 grams per
tonne (“g/t”) gold at Shadow Lake. On a due diligence visit, SLAM’s
prospecting team collected 5 samples and reported visible gold at
one of these gold discovery sites. The Shadow Lake and adjacent
Jake Lee claims cover gold occurrences associated with the Fundy
fault zone, a broad system of deep-rooted Appalachian structures
centered around the Belleisle bay fault. This is similar to the
setting of the Queensway project adjacent to the Appleton fault in
Newfoundland where recent gold discoveries have been reported by
Newfoundgold (TSXV-NFG).
The Shadow Lake Gold
Project
The Property is host to 7 recent gold
discoveries made in 2021 by previous workers. Six gold discoveries
on the east portion of the claims include one site that returned a
grab sample grading 70.4 g/t gold and 5 sites where grab samples
are grading from 0.396 g/t to 3.03 g/t gold. Approximately 14
kilometres to the west, a similar occurrence returned grab samples
ranging up to 54.9 g/t gold. SLAM’s prospecting team reported a
site of visible gold at this occurrence after a due diligence
visit. Assays are pending on 5 samples collected from the property
during this visit.
The Property comprises 6 claims covering 3782
hectares along a 20 kilometre stretch of granitic and sedimentary
rocks associated with the Fundy fault zone.

To earn a 100% interest, the Company will be

payments and private placements. The Company currently holds an

and Shadow Lake gold projects. These projects are associated with
the Fundy fault zone and located in southwestern New Brunswick
where Galway Metals recently announced a 2.3 million ounce gold
deposit at Clarence stream. The Company plans further work at its
drill-ready Menneval gold project in northern New Brunswick and
intends to explore cobalt, nickel and copper geochemical anomalies
on its Portage project in the Bathurst Mining Camp (“BMC”). The

project in central New Brunswick and the Keezhik gold project in
Ontario.

QA-QC Procedures: Previous
workers collected 261 grab samples including 47 samples from 0.010
to 0.100 g/t gold, 19 samples grading 0.10 to 1.00 g/t gold and 6
samples grading 1.47 to 70.40 g/t gold. According to their reports,
samples were sent to ALS Global and were analyzed for gold using
standard fire assay (30 gram) with Inductively Coupled Plasma
Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES) finish. SLAM has been
provided with an xlsx spreadsheet of this data but does not have
access to the assay certificates.
