Blue Thunder (BLUE) has commenced a 1,500 metre diamond drilling program on its Muus Property.
The 51,000-hectare Muus Gold Project is among the largest aggregate claim holdings in the Chibougamau Gold District in central Québec.
“We are excited that diamond drilling has started at Muus for our fall program,” said Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, CEO of Blue Thunder. “We have defined attractive gold and massive sulphide targets on the property and we look forward to testing these.”
The Welb showing has not yet been adequately drill tested.
Historic trenching disclosed significant gold on surface (up to 8 g/t Au), mainly in 0.5 to 1 m wide quartz veins; however, historic drilling did not intercept the projected down-dip extension of the surface showing.
At Lac Bernard, a historical RC-drilling campaign yielded some excellent gold and arsenic anomalies in till.
A very strong conductor, identified by re-interpreting a historical IP survey, shows the signature of a potential massive-sulfide exhalative system on the northern side of the Guercheville Fault Zone.
Base-metal anomalies in soil support this interpretation. The first drill hole was 246 metres long (Dip -45°) and returned disseminated to massive sulfide mineralization in two zones of several metres each, at a down-hole distance of about 150 metres.
