Torr Metals (TMET) has completed Phase 1 geochemical surveys on its 100 per cent owned Latham Copper-Gold Project.

The project is located within the prolific Golden Triangle region of northern British Columbia.

Torr has also completed approximately 60 per cent of a 4.3 km2 induced polarization survey that will complement soil sampling and de-risk planned drilling within the Dalvenie Zone in 2022.

The purpose of the geochemical program was to test potential along-strike extensions to copper-gold-silver mineralization through extensive soil sampling within and peripheral to the Dalvenie occurrence, as well as conducting reconnaissance rock grab sampling throughout the Latham Project.

Malcolm Dorsey, President and CEO of Torr Metals, commented on the news.

“I am very pleased with the rapid progress we have made within 3 weeks of initiating our field exploration program. Our initial geochemical surveys have also been very effective in giving us the opportunity to identify the many different styles of mineralization, alteration, and host rock that exist throughout the Latham Project; in addition to de-risking and refining our 2022 drill targets. We anticipate that this data will prove essential in continuing to showcase the significant scale of exploration potential that exists on the Latham Project.”

2022 field program highlights:

  • Collection of 275 rock grab samples throughout the property (assays pending).
  • Collection of 1214 soils samples covering 16.5 km2at the Dalvenie Zone as well as 104 soil samples covering 2.4 km2 of a prospective high-magnetic anomaly at Dalvenie East (assays pending).
  • Completion of ~60 per cent of the IP survey over the Dalvenie occurrence as of July 29, 2022.

Torr Metals is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration company focused on developing the exploration and resource potential of the Latham Copper-Gold Project, located in northern British Columbia.
