Fabled Copper Corp. (CSE:FABL) has announced the results of 2022 surface field work on its Muskwa Copper Project, comprising the Neil Property, the Toro Property and the Bronson Property all located in northern British Columbia.
The eastern extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence is located on the Neil Property roughly 1.5 kilometres east of the 6400 Eagle Vein adit where the 2022 underground Light Detection and Ranging survey was completed.During the summer of 2022 the Eagle Creek, the east extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence, the western extension, north extension, southern extension and the backside of the Eagle vein were visited on separate occasions.
“The eastern extension of the Eagle Creek copper occurrence was visited by a 2-person field team consisting of a geologist and geo technician on two occasions during the summer field season. A total of 10 samples were collected, all float samples. Of the 10 samples collected, 3 assayed greater than 0.5% copper,” Peter Hawley, Fabled Copper president and CEO said in a statement.
Over the course of two site visits a vertical altitude of 335 meters was examined and 10 float samples were collected, three of which assayed greater than 0.50% copper. Float sample D-723607 taken at the 1,557-meter elevation consisted of semi-massive sulphides with quartz, minor carbonate, abundant azurite and malachite copper alteration with 60% chalcopyrite and 35% quartz. This sample returned an impressive 15.55% copper.
At the 1,307 meter altitude float sample D-723612 which consisted of vuggy quartz veining with minor patches of minor carbonate and iron carbonate contained abundant malachite copper alteration with 8% chalcopyrite as patched and disseminations and returned 6.14% copper.
Additional releases on the 2022 exploration program of the Muskwa area will be forthcoming in the following weeks, the company said.
Fabled Copper is a junior mining exploration company. Its current focus is to create value for stakeholders through the exploration and development of its existing copper properties located in northern British Columbia.
