The district scale property is road accessible, located near
Renforth's field crew prospected across the entire property, with several targets. All of the targets were visited with samples taken and submitted to the assay laboratory, it is anticipated receipt of results will be several months. The nature of the sulphide mineralization present on the Victoria Structure and at Lalonde allows the recognition of the presence of mineralization in the field, in some instances confirmed by an XRF, the amount of minerals present will be determined by the lab analysis, which will be released once received.
'Our first round of prospecting our district scale Surimeau property this year went very well, our EM survey is proving to be an excellent road map to mineralization. High level observations are presented in this press release, you can appreciate that lots of data has been generated and will be assimilated into our growing project model, with more to come once assays are received. Everything we are learning will be utilized in the next round of prospecting at Surimeau and, eventually, our next drill program. We have new targets for the next round, based on what we learned this round, which we will target as we continue to learn about and develop Surimeau,
20km Victoria Structure
Successful prospecting of the central portion of the Victoria Structure proves the presence of battery metal mineralization in outcrop, which, along with the EM anomalies demonstrating the presence of surface/near surface sulphides, allows Renforth to conclude that the Victoria Structure is mineralized. Work will continue to define the grade and amount of mineralization. The red lines are the gps recorded tracks of our field crew this program, the grey lines are their earlier tracks, showing both what has been uncovered but also how much ground has yet to be explored, even within the Victoria Structure and along strike of Lalonde.
Calc-silicate Surface Mineralization
The calc-silicate altered unit was originally identified as quartzite. It is usually found in the contact zone between the sediments and ultramafics either directly at or on the contact, or proximal to it. This unit resembles quartzite but is green to brown in colour, fine to medium grained with a plagioclase matrix containing bands and crystals of Cr-diopside - Cr-tremolite and occasional bright green Cr-grossular garnets. This unit seems to be an alteration of the ultramafics themselves and is generally very well mineralized with wide disseminations of coarse clotty sulfide, often 5-15% sulfide overall within these zones. It is also often quite foliated. XRF scans while logging core indicated the presence of
This unit was also observed at surface in the
EM Survey Results
As indicated in the prospecting progress map above many of the EM anomalies were visited, numerous had outcrop present. There are still a few anomalies to visit on the Victoria Structure to search for outcrop, this will be done in the next prospecting program at Surimeau. It is anticipated this second campaign will commence in the next few weeks.
