iMetal Resources Receives Drilling Permit for Gowganda West Project Ontario, Canada

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 13, 2022 / iMetal Resources, Inc. (TSXV:IMR)(OTC PINK:ADTFF)(FRANKFURT:A7V) ("iMetal" or the "Company") is pleased to announce receipt of a three-year drill and exploration permit to carry out the next phase of exploration at its 100% owned Gowganda West gold property. The property is located in the Shining Tree District of the Abitibi Greenstone Gold Belt in Northern Ontario. The permit includes:

  • 15 line km's of induced polarization (IP) surveying;
  • Trenching to refine gold targets at up to 25 locations, totaling 2500 linear metres;
  • greater than 20 drill pads, with multiple drill collars at each pad

"The 3-year permit renewal at Gowganda is a significant milestone for the Company as we prepare for the fully funded 2022 follow-up drill program of 2,500 metres," commented iMetal President & CEO Saf Dhillon. "I recently visited our priority gold targets at Gowganda West with Tim Henneberry our Q.P and director along with Brian Madill our Mining Land Management Consultant and we are very excited to commence the 2022 exploration program.

iMetal has completed a series of exploration programs at Gowganda West since acquisition in 2016, including prospecting, grab and channel sampling and preliminary diamond drilling, along with airborne VTEM and magnetics and ground IP. These programs defined a 6 kilometre north-south trending zone of anomalous gold mineralization and alteration, highlighted by Zone 1 in the north and Zone 3 in the south.

Zone 1 has excellent access and is located 500 metres south of the Juby gold deposit. Zone 1 is showcased by two distinct outcrop areas and consists of a prominent alteration zone up to 10 metres wide and shearing carrying quartz veinlets. Grab sampling highlights include 27.2 g/t Au and 16.4 g/t Au (see press release dated June 10, 2021). Five diamond drill holes over 150 metres of strike length were subsequently drilled in 2019. Drill highlights included: 2.95 g/t Au over 2.5 metres, 1.43 g/t Au over 4.6 metres and longer intervals of 0.37 g/t au over 29.4 metres and 0.32 g/t au over 30.25 metres (see press release dated, April 20, 2020).

Zone 3, located 6 km south of Zone 1, consists of two distinct gold target areas (Zone 3A and Zone 3B) separated by 225 metres.. Grab samples at the target include 67.9 g/t Au, 29.6 g/t Au and 11.3 g/t Au (see press release dated June 10, 2021). Both zones have gold hosted in near north striking, sub-vertical quartz-carbonate veins with associated disseminated sulphides (pyrite and chalcopyrite). Both targets are yet to be drill tested and are a priority target for the 2022 drill program.

Connecting Zone 1 and 3, located at either end of a 6 km long gold trend identified through systematic mapping and sampling in 2019 and 2021, will be a 2022 priority. The 2022 exploration program will include refined mapping and drill target identification along this trend. New targets will be assessed and considered for the 2022 drill program.
