Brixton Metals Corporation
(TSX-V: BBB, OTCQB:
BBBXF) (the “
Company” or
“
Brixton”) is pleased to announce that it has
received the third payment in the amount of USD$500,000 for the Hog
Heaven Project, which is currently being operated under a
definitive earn-in JV Agreement with Ivanhoe Electric Inc.
(NYSE/TSX: IE; see news release dated March 2nd, 2021). Ivanhoe
Electric holds the option to acquire up to 75% interest by
completing USD$44.5 million of total project spending. Hog Heaven
is an advanced-stage, high-sulphidation, epithermal
copper-silver-gold project with porphyry potential and historical
production located in the state of Montana, USA.
Hog Heaven Project Update
Recent work at Hog Heaven has been focused on
evaluating the historic drill hole database. This work has included
re-logging 14,500m of drill core and assaying 3,600 drill core
pulps for processing using current mineral assay technologies. The
historic drill core has been selectively analyzed with a handheld
Terraspec Halo (NIR & SWIR), a mineral analysis system that
allows for the identification and evaluation of alteration minerals
and alteration mineral zoning. Additionally, expanded soil, gravity
and 3D IP surveys were completed on the property.
Future Exploration Plans for Hog
Heaven
The Company understands that Ivanhoe Electric
Inc. will continue to compile and create a comprehensive geological
model for the property. Geochemical and geophysical anomalies have
been identified, and based on these results, drill target
identification is currently underway. An exploration drill program
is expected to begin this summer to identify potential porphyry
copper-gold mineralization. Future work shall be based on the
success of the next program.
Chairman and CEO, Gary Thompson, stated, “We are
delighted to see the continued interest by Ivanhoe Electric on the
Hog Heaven Project. With the momentum in electrification of the
economy, we believe projects like Hog Heaven have the potential to
be a significant contributor to the supply of critical minerals in
the USA.”
