Fancamp Exploration Ltd. announced that the drilling program at the Clinton project is scheduled to start in mid-February. Based on the 3D modelling by Mira Geosciences and Fancamp, the Clinton drilling program aims to test a VTEM plate anomaly situated some 100 m NE of a copper bearing mineralized lens. The VTEM anomaly also coincides with exhalate marker horizons identified through historical data compilation and modelling.

The “favorable horizon” will be tested by 3 fences along a strike extension of about 500 meters of a minimum of 2 holes to visualize the potential extension of the mineralized horizon. The targeted plate is interpreted to follow a “favorable” horizon identified in the compilation as a chemical exhalative unit, often associated to volcanism produced during deposition of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide deposits. Previous historical drilling as well as mining records have reported significant copper intersections along this unit and the Fancamp exploration program aims to identify further potential mineralization along this trend.
