Fabled Copper Corp. (CSE:FABL) shared additional results of 2021 surface field work on its Muskwa copper project, which is comprised of the Neil property, the Toro property, and the Bronson property in northern British Columbia.
The Vancouver-based junior mining exploration company revealed that a total of 56 person-days were spent on the property with 199 rock samples taken from seven area prospects: Book 6, Book 9, Book 10, 428 Central, 428 South, PJ105, and PJ100.
In a statement, Fabled Copper CEO Peter Hawley said: "The Bronson property comprises four mineral tenures covering approximately 2,524.6 hectares, and the Book 9, 10 copper occurrence is now thought to be the potential southern extension of the Book 6 occurrence which would give the vein a total length of 1.6 kilometers.”
The company revealed that the Book 9-10 occurrence is located due south of the Book 6 occurrence and numerous examples of mineralized quartz-carbonate float, representing the northern part of the occurrence, were discovered on the western slope of the valley, 400 meters (m) south of the southern exposure of the Book 6 occurrence.
On July 18, 2021, Fabled said 22 float samples were collected at around 5 meter intervals along two southeast trending lines, 30m apart, at elevations of 1,730-to-1,748 meters.
Three samples with 3-to-30% chalcopyrite, that were collected on the north-eastern line, assayed greater than 1% copper with D-723167 returning 9.78%, 161-2.14% and 158-1.13%, said Fabled Copper.
The other 19 samples had concentrations of 0-to-3% chalcopyrite and contained less than 1% copper, according to the company.
