Brunswick Exploration Aquires Prospective Tin Properties in New Brunswick
2021年12月2日 - 9:00PM
Brunswick Exploration Inc. (“
BRW”
or the “
Company”) is pleased to announce that is
has acquired multiple claims throughout New Brunswick, totaling
6,527 hectares, located in southeastern and central New Brunswick,
collectively known as the Caledonia Tin and Catamaran Tin projects
(“
Properties”). The Properties were acquired by
claim staking and are located roughly 30 kilometers south of
Moncton and 15 kilometers west of Doaktown, respectively.
Mr. Killian Charles, President of BRW,
commented: “We have chosen the most prospective tin targets across
New Brunswick based on till geochemistry, proximity to existing
tungsten-tin deposits and favorable geology. It is important to
note that New Brunswick is host to North America’s largest
undeveloped tin deposit. Tin fundamentals are incredibly strong
with spot prices recently reaching historical highs due to export
curtailments in Indonesia. Tin remains the best performing metal in
2021 with forecasted demand expected to remain very strong, so we
are excited to launch a tin exploration program in a highly
prospective and stable Canadian jurisdiction.”
Prospectors have begun working on the properties
and we will continue with Phase 1 reconnaissance prospecting along
with a soil sampling program in Q2 2022. Compilation work included
the creation of a Tin Favourability Factor (“TFF”)
using multi-element Sn, W, Mo, As, Be, Bi, Cs and base metal
concentrations in the regional government till geochemical data
base. The TFF allowed the Company to highlight areas of tin
potential across the province. The generated targets from the TFF
were comparable and, in several instances, better than anomalous
tills taken in the vicinities of the Burnt Hill and Sisson Brook
Deposits.
Tin Fundamentals
Included in Canada’s List of Critical Minerals
in 2021, tin is predominantly used as an alloy for solder in
electronics and superconducting magnets. The spot price of tin has
risen over 200% since January 2021 and reached a record price of
US$40,680/tonne earlier this month. With demand for smart devices
and electronic components expected to continue growing over the
coming years, coupled to the phasing out of traditional lead
solders, tin demand is expected to remain elevated with forecasted
growth in excess of 7% in 2021, according to the International Tin
Association. Importantly, tin supply is very precarious, being
largely dependent on environmentally difficult alluvial mining in
Indonesia and southeast Asia. Recently, Indonesia announced
significant restriction to tin exports by 2024, highlighting the
need for safe and sustainable production in North America.
Caledonia Tin Project
Overview
The total Property comprises 3 claims and 109
units with a total surface area of 2,450 hectares. The Caledonia
Project is located roughly 30 kilometres south of Moncton and
roughly 7 kilometers west of Hillsborough. Government of New
Brunswick till samples were taken at roughly 2-kilometer spacing
and are underlain by Carboniferous sediments as well as sediments,
granites, granodiorites and volcanics from the Neoproterozoic. The
Project is also in close proximity to the regional Caledonia-Clover
Hill Fault that demarcates Avalonia from Ganderia across the
Province.
Catamaran Tin Project
Overview
The total Property comprises 6 claims and 184
units with a total surface area of 4,077 hectares. The Property is
located in central New-Brunswick, roughly 15 kilometres west of
Doaktown. Government of New Brunswick till samples were taken at
roughly 2-kilometer spacing and are underlain by sediments,
granites, gneiss and volcanics from the Carboniferous to
Ordovician. The Project contains multiple granitic pulses,
including the Devonian Burnt Hill granite that hosts the Burnt Hill
tungsten-tin deposit. The Project is also in close proximity to the
regional Catamaran-Woodstock and Bamford Brook-Hainesville Faults
that bound the Miramichi Terrane from the Matapedia Basin to the
north and the Fredericton Trough to the south.
Grant of Options
The Company also announces that the Board of
Directors approved the grant of incentive stock options to an
officer and key employee to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000
common shares in the capital stock of the Company. Grants are
subject to a three-year vesting period and a five-year term at an
