Gama Confirms Grade Continuity of the CM-1 Pegmatite and Identifies Additional Spodumene-Bearing Pegmatites at Muskox
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 10, 2023 / Gama Explorations Inc. (CSE:GAMA)(FSE:N79)(OTCQB:GMMAF) ("Gama" or the "Company") is pleased to announce preliminary results from its exploration program at the Muskox Lithium Property (the "Property") in the Yellowknife Pegmatite Province of The Northwest Territories, Canada.
Exploration Highlights
- Mapping indicates better grade continuity along strike of the CM-1 pegmatite than initially thought.
- CM-1 may extend below surface to the southeast, potentially extending its 700m strike length.
- One channel sample taken during historical work was taken from a barren pegmatite and was re-sampled in the correct location. This re-sampled location along the CM-1 pegmatite contains visible spodumene.
- Three channel samples taken along two smaller spodumene-bearing dykes identified adjacent to CM-1.
- Drill sites and targets were confirmed, and a maiden drill program remains on track to commence in July or August.
"Our 2023 exploration program at Muskox has gotten off to a great start with greater continuity observed along strike of the CM-1 pegmatite and the confirmation of two additional pegmatites adjacent to CM-1", stated Dr. Mick Carew, CEO of Gama. "The first phase of our exploration program was designed to assess the continuity of the CM-1 pegmatite and to map the surrounding area in greater detail. The identification of two additional pegmatites is an exciting development."
"With the CM-1 mapping and sampling program now complete, we await the completion of a LIDAR and orthophoto survey over the whole Muskox project area. Data from the LIDAR/orthophoto survey will help identify any additional spodumene-bearing pegmatites covered or partially covered by overburden. After a delay due to the unavailability of a helicopter, we expect the survey to be completed by the middle of July; mapping and prospecting teams will then be dispatched to follow-up on other outcropping pegmatites and anomalies identified from the LIDAR/orthophoto survey."
Channel sampling program
A total of nine samples were taken across four pegmatite dikes. Five samples were collected along the CM-1 pegmatite to verify the historical data and establish grade continuity across the dike. A sample that was thought to be taken from the CM-1 pegmatite in 2022 turned out to be in an adjacent barren pegmatite dyke. The CM-1 pegmatite was identified and sampled close to this location with visible coarse spodumene. The CM-1 pegmatite ranges from 2.2 - 5m wide across its strike length. It is only exposed over a narrow range of elevation and may vary in thickness at depth.
Two additional pegmatites were found in the vicinity of the CM-1 pegmatite dike, of which one hosts abundant coarse spodumene. Two channel samples of 3.2 and 3.6m were taken across the pegmatite. The pegmatite can be traced over more than 100m of strike length before being obscured by overburden.
