04 Março 2025 - 12:48PM
Urbana Corporation (TSX & CSE: URB & URB.A)
Urbana Corporation is pleased to provide an
update on its current drill program underway on its 100% owned
“Urban Township Project” located in the Urban-Windfall area,
Quebec.
Summary Highlights:
- Drilling in an
emerging major gold mining camp.
- Five holes
totalling 1,503 metres were completed as of yesterday, all in the
southeast sector.
- Area targeted
covers the Bank-Mazeres fault, the same fault associated with gold
mineralization at the nearby Windfall and Barry gold deposits.
- All holes have
intersected a sequence of volcanics lithologies consisting of
tuffs, rhyolites, dacites and andesites. Gabbros were also
intersected in a few of the holes.
- Mineralization
intersected in several holes consisting of iron sulphides and/or
visible gold.
- The core showed
areas of strong alterations, consisting mostly of sericitization
and silicification in some areas.
- The drill is
scheduled to be moved to the central-south portion of the project
area upon completion of the current drill hole.
- The program is
on track to be completed in mid-March.
Geology
The drilling to date has concentrated on an area
with no historical drill holes and little bedrock exposure. The
current drill program intersects a sequence of volcanic rocks,
including tuffs and rhyolite and gabbros. The lithologies are
considered important as these are the same that host large portions
of the nearby world-class Windfall deposit. The presence of visible
gold, pyrite and pyrrhotite associated with faulting and alteration
is also of keen interest and will form part of the basis on
planning follow-up drilling in the area.
The program, which consists of up to 4,150
metres of drilling, is concentrating on the southern sector of the
project where gold mineralization has been encountered near the
claim boundary by adjacent explorers Osisko Mining and Bonterra
Resources. The area is known to host the Mazere fault, a major
structure associated with most of the gold mineralization of
importance in the region.
The project is located between the nearby
Windfall and Barry gold deposits, along the same geological
feature. It is situated near existing infrastructure and is
accessible by road.
A review of additional data located in the
northern sector of the project is underway. Data collected shows
numerous gold prospects throughout the area which warrant a
potential second drill program in late summer.
