Benton And Sokoman Announce Gold Discovery At The Grey River Gold Project, Southern Newfoundland

Assays for six of 13 core samples, “super rushed” for assay, return from 1.34 to 37.64 g/t Au.

Thunder Bay, ON, November 25, 2021 – Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) and Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”), together (the “Alliance”), are pleased to announce that preliminary results from the maiden drill program at Grey River, Newfoundland, have returned multiple drill intersections of potentially significant gold mineralization. Program highlights include:

  • 1,026 m completed in five holes over a four-kilometre strike length

  • Widespread pyrite mineralization encountered in all holes

  • 643 core samples cut and delivered for assay of which 13 samples were “super rushed”

  • for Au analysis; six of the 13 samples “super rushed” returned from 1.34 to 37.64 g/t Au

  • 630 samples are pending assay results

*Lengths are core lengths and believed to be 90% true length

Grey River – Drilling location map

Drill holes GR-21-01 to GR-21-05 were drilled within a 5-km strike length (location map attached) of the 10-km-long quartz/silica zone located 4 km east of the community of Grey River. Drilling operations including crew changes, drill moves, core logging and sampling, as well as camp logistics were helicopter supported with all personnel based in a remote fishing/hunting camp. Five drill holes totaling 1,026 m were completed with hole lengths ranging from 148 m to 235 m. A total of 643 samples ranging from 0.35 m to 1.25 m in length were cut onsite using a diamond core saw. Samples were flown to the town of Burgeo and then delivered to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, Newfoundland by road transport halfway through and at the end of the program. Thirteen samples were “super rushed” with the remaining 630 samples awaiting gold analysis by standard fire assay for Au and ICP analysis for other elements. Samples assaying >1 g/t gold, including the “super rush” samples, will be re-analyzed by the “metallics” method.

Gold mineralization in the eastern-half of the property is associated with zones of disseminated and stringer pyrite (from 2-20% pyrite) in the 10-km-long quartz/silica body, and in discreet quartz veins that cut the body. Historic grab samples, and recent grab samples taken by Benton and Sokoman personnel (see September 2, 2021 press release), have given gold values ranging from 50 ppb to a maximum of 225 g/t Au. No prior drilling for gold has taken place in or near the quartz/silica body.

Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton states; “This is truly an exciting time for the Alliance. We’ve encountered two significant intercepts in our first hole with a significant number of assays pending. This hole is located 4 km east of the surface high grade encountered from our prospecting program. We believe this very large quartz system could be quite significant and we’re excited to plan the next phase of diamond drilling.”

Timothy Froude, P. Geo., President and CEO of Sokoman states; “These are outstanding results from reconnaissance drill holes on a property that has seen virtually no exploration for gold beyond sporadic grab sampling. The results reported are from three groups of consecutive samples from separate zones of pyrite mineralization from the first two holes completed. We decided to analyze a limited number of samples under “super rush” instructions to see if gold was present, as all that is known about gold in this area is that it is associated with pyrite. Needless to say, we are extremely pleased and already have more than enough evidence to support drilling in 2022. The Grey River property was acquired jointly by the Sokoman/Benton Alliance, which is targeting district scale gold opportunities in Newfoundland. Sokoman is now one of the largest land holders in Newfoundland and is sufficiently funded to advance our portfolio of properties.”

Previous workers have compared the gold mineralization at Grey River to the high-grade Pogo gold mine in the Tintina district of Alaska. The Pogo gold mine, to the end of 2019, produced 3.9M oz gold at 13.6 g/t. March 31, 2021 Probable Mineral Reserves were 5.9M tonnes @ 8 g/t for 1.5M oz and Indicated plus Inferred Mineral Resources were 23M tonnes @ 9.4 g/t for 6.9M oz. gold (See Northern Star Resources website, November 22, 2021. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves. These resource figures are JORC-compliant and not NI 43-101-compliant. NI 43-101 regulations do not allow Indicated and Inferred Resources to be combined in public disclosures).

Sokoman Reports First Barge-Based Drill Results Moosehead Gold Project, Central Newfoundland

Phase 6 drill Program doubled to 100,000 m.

St. John’s, NL, November 10, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) is pleased to report the first results from the barge-based drilling on North Pond on the 100%-owned Moosehead Project in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

MH-21-291: 4.95 m of 27.70 g/t Au from 41.55 m downhole

MH-21-283: 4.20 m of 14.72 g/t Au within 9.80 m of 6.65 g/t Au from 53.00 m downhole

The results confirm shallow, high-grade, gold-bearing quartz veins which are extensions to the Upper Eastern Trend and the Footwall Splay mineralized zones (plan map attached). The reported holes were drilled on a 10 m to 15 m grid spacing south of MH-20-115, which gave significant intercepts of 4.60 m of 47.20 g/t Au from the Footwall Splay, and further downhole, 8.10 m of 68.70 g/t Au from the Upper Eastern Trend (November 19, 2020 NR). The new holes are on trend towards the 75 Zone, located approximately 150 m further south, and from where recent results include MH-21-234 that returned 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au (September 28, 2021 NR).

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the early results from the North Pond, barge-based, drilling. We have been stressing the importance of this program for several months and it is very rewarding to see our expectations met with these strong results. The barge program to date consists of 20 holes with mineralized veins encountered in the majority of the holes. Some holes tested both the Upper Eastern Trend and the Footwall Splay zones with the table above reporting both intersections. The barge program will continue as long as conditions allow. Winter conditions, mainly freezing, are expected in late November to mid-December, at which point the barge will be pulled from the pond and mothballed until spring 2022. We are also pleased to announce that the current 50,000 m program has been increased to 100,000 m with drilling to continue with occasional breaks through 2022. We see growth potential in all areas of the known mineralized corridors as well as discovery potential on our numerous regional targets.”

Sokoman And Benton – More High-Grade Lithium Results Kraken Pegmatites In Newfoundland

Further grab sampling returns values up to 1.93% Li2O.

St. John’s, NL November 9, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) together, (“the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that they continue to expand the extent of the recently-discovered Kraken pegmatite field at the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project located in southwestern Newfoundland. This is the first significant discovery of Lithium mineralization documented in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

Phase 3 sampling at the Kraken pegmatite field has given grab-sample results grading from trace up to 1.93% Li2O with 11 samples having values >0.5% Li2O, and six samples >1% Li2O. The 49 grab samples were collected over a 0.5 km2 area over the swarm of poorly-exposed pegmatite and aplite dykes which display characteristics of significant pegmatite fields around the world including zonation of Tantalum, Rubidium and Cesium minerals, all considered Critical Specialty elements for the Green electric future.

The Alliance has also discovered several new spodumene-bearing pegmatites to the west of the original discovery, further expanding the dyke swarm. The dyke swarm has now been sampled over a strike length of 2200 metres and an apparent width of 1200 metres. A further 50 samples were taken with results to be released in the coming weeks.

A detailed LiDAR / Photogrammetry survey covering 8.4 km2 of the pegmatite field has now been completed, extending westward to cover the high-grade Beryllium showing which had two samples with >5000 ppm Be, and associated anomalous Lithium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values, and also eastward to cover the possible extension of the newly-discovered eastern pegmatite swarm.

Samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude, adds: “The Alliance has made great strides in expanding this exciting new discovery and the mineralization is still open in all directions. It is clear we need to gather as much critical data as we can prior to proposing a Phase 1 drilling program to maximize the potential of this discovery. We are about to begin discussions with our respective Boards of Directors and advisors as to how to proceed with this exciting opportunity for the maximum benefit of our shareholders.

Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares, states: “It is very evident that the Kraken pegmatite field is quickly becoming something of potential economic interest. To find something brand new and of this extent is truly exciting. With the growing demand for Lithium and other critical metals we are very happy to be entering the race with this new discovery.”

Benton And Sokoman Enter Into Mutual Participation Agreements Governing Cost Reimbursement Under Their Strategic Exploration Alliance

Thunder Bay, ON, October 15, 2021 – Benton Resources Inc. (“Benton”) (TSXV: BEX) and Sokoman Minerals Corp. (“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (jointly, ”the Companies” or singularly a “Joint Venture Party”) are pleased to announce that they have entered into mutual participation agreements (the “Participation Agreements”) that govern cost reimbursement between the Companies relating to certain option agreements entered into by each of Benton and Sokoman on behalf of their strategic exploration alliance announced on May 20, 2021. Pursuant to the strategic alliance the Companies agreed to share, on a 50/50 basis, exploration costs and costs associated with the exercise of property options entered into by either party on behalf of the strategic alliance. In cases where one of the Joint Venture Parties enters into an option agreement that requires shares to be issued to a third party optionor the other Joint Venture Party will contribute its 50% of the costs by reimbursing the first company for 50% of the option payments. Where common shares are required to be issued as part of the option payments in order to ensure that the costs are equally divided the monetary value of such shares will be calculated and the Joint Venture Party that did not enter into the option agreement will issue such number of shares to the Joint Venture Party that did enter into the option agreement that have a monetary value equal to 50% of the value of the shares issued by the Joint Venture Party that has entered into the option agreement.

Sokoman and Benton have on behalf of the strategic alliance, each entered into two property option agreements that have previously been announced that are being contributed to the strategic alliance and governed by the Participation Agreements. The Participation Agreements simply formalize and clarify what cash payments and share issuances are required to be made by the Joint Venture Party that did not directly enter into a particular option agreement in order to reimburse the Joint Venture Party that did enter into the option agreement.

Sokoman And Benton Expand The Kraken Lithium Pegmatite Swarm In Newfoundland

  • Dyke system expanded: 2.2 km-long by 0.85 km-wide

  • Fine-grained spodumene identified in several new areas

  • Dyke system is wide open for expansion

 

St. John’s, NL, October 14, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) and Benton Resources Inc. (“Benton”) (TSXV: BEX) (jointly “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that prospecting has expanded the area containing lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes, now known as “The Kraken Pegmatite Swarm”, to an area measuring approximately 2.2 km-long by 0.85 km-wide. In the past two weeks, the Alliance has focused their prospecting to the east of the original discovery and now have identified multiple areas of spodumene-bearing pegmatites dykes ranging from 0.5 m to 10.0 m in thickness from possible stacked swarms striking approximately 50 degrees and dipping 45-65 degrees east with unknown strike length. A total of 55 samples were collected over the eastern-half of the swarm area and assay results are expected within the next few weeks. All samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

The Alliance also received further assays from a second phase of sampling collected from a till covered area, west of the original discovery, with samples of sub-crops and large local boulders returning anomalous results of rubidium, tantalum and lithium. One sample of a large, angular, purple pegmatite boulder located 600 m west of the original lithium zone graded 1.04% Li2O. The sampling has demonstrated that the dyke system contains economic grades of lithium, is widespread, and open along strike.

The Alliance is planning detailed geological mapping and a high-resolution drone survey that will include imagery, lidar and magnetic datasets to assist in the mapping and targeting the dyke system for drilling which will commence shortly. The companies have already completed a 5,709 line-km Heliborne High-Resolution Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey flown by Terraquest Ltd. with the final data currently being processed. The survey will provide the structural / lithological setting and help identify gold-bearing structure extensions, as well as any unrecognized structures including those potentially related to the lithium-bearing pegmatites.

Benton’s President and CEO, Stephen Stares, states: “The Alliance has discovered and released high-grade results up to 2.37% Li2O which is the first of its kind in Newfoundland. As the Alliance continues to advance the lithium potential, it’s quickly becoming evident that the Kraken dyke system is a large, highly-evolved, pegmatite field similar to the geological environment and setting of other large systems in the Appalachian belt, including the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as in the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland.”

Benton Resources And Sokoman Minerals Commence Diamond Drilling Grey River Jv Project, Southern Newfoundland

Phase 1 Program Approximately 2,000 metres

Thunder Bay, ON, October 12, 2021 – Benton Resources Inc. (“Benton”) (TSXV: BEX) and Sokoman Minerals Corp. (“Sokoman”) (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (jointly “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce that Phase 1 diamond drilling has commenced at the Grey River JV gold project (the ”Project”) on the south coast of Newfoundland. The Project is targeting high-grade gold mineralization similar in style to the Pogo gold deposit in the Tintina Belt of Alaska.

The Project is centered on the community of Grey River, a deep-water, ice-free harbour on the south coast of the Island of Newfoundland, 32 km to the east of the town of Burgeo, and 38 km southeast of the Golden Hope JV gold project. The Alliance’s claims straddle a deep-seated, east-west trending, ductile shear zone that separates a large enclave of Late Precambrian amphibolite, gabbro, metasediments, felsic metavolcanics and mafic orthogneisses from a batholith-scale, syn-kinematic suite of Siluro-Devonian granitoid rocks. The east-west shear zone at Grey River, and parallel structures immediately offshore, are fundamental crustal breaks along which metal-rich, mid- to late-Devonian granites were emplaced, along the southern coast of the Island.

Rocks in this area of southwestern Newfoundland are unusually enriched in Au, Mo, Cu, W, F and Bi. A 5 km- by 10 km-long area within, and adjoining the property, is particularly metal-rich, hosting:

  1.  multiple mesothermal/intrusion-related Au-rich (+/- Bi-Ag-Sb-Pb-Zn) quartz veins

    1.  a porphyry Mo-Cu deposit (Moly Brook)

    2.  a vein-type wolframite-rich W deposit (Grey River #10)

    3.  a diffusely bounded, high-purity, locally auriferous, silica deposit (Gulch Cove)

Each appears to be associated with features in the regional aero magnetics and are also reflected in regional Government lake-sediment geochemistry coverage. The primary focus of the Alliance’s exploration is quartz-vein-hosted, structurally controlled / intrusion-related, high-grade Au (+/- Ag, Bi, Sb) in both the granitic and adjacent metamorphic terrains.

Previous exploration at Grey River has identified gold mineralization in several settings:

  1. in base-metal-rich and sulphide-poor, quartz veins and veinlets in the gneisses and related metamorphic rocks, including regional-scale silica bodies

    1. in quartz veins with coarse-grained sulphides in granite

    2. in sulphide-poor, quartz stock-works in sericitized granite

    3. in stockwork-style quartz and quartz-sulphide veinlets with or without pervasive silica replacement in granite

Gold grades reported from historic grab and channel samples range from less than 1 g/t to more than 225 g/t Au, locally with 200-300 g/t Ag, with or without anomalous Bi, Sb and W. The 225 g/t Au chip sample is from a 20-30 cm-wide zone of pyritic alteration immediately adjacent to an 8 km-long, diffusely-bounded, quartz-rich zone. The highly anomalous value coincides with the large, elongated, high-purity silica body (12M tonnes >95% SiO) which was drilled by the Newfoundland Government in 1967, as part of an Island-wide, silica-assessment program. The silica body lies in mica schists, along the boundary with amphibolite gneisses and mica-schists, and along the flank of a prominent aeromagnetic high. Its origin is unclear with past workers proposing different origins including meta-quartzite, quartz vein, silica replacement. The style, grades, setting and Au-Ag-Bi-W-Sb geochemical signature of the gold mineralization, have drawn comparisons with the high-grade Pogo gold mine in the Tintina Gold Belt of Alaska and Yukon which is gold in diffusely bounded quartz bodies in amphibolite grade gneisses. The Pogo mine has produced 3.9 million oz gold at 13.6 g/t gold (to end of 2019), with Mineral Reserves of more than 7 million oz gold.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are very pleased to begin this program at Grey River, which will be the first drilling program directed at the gold potential of the large quartz zones or bodies in the eastern portion of the property. Historical sampling results include chip/channel samples of 225 g/t Au, and widespread grab-sample values from less than detection to 3.8 g/t Au. None of the gold enriched areas, which occur over an 8 km strike length of the silica body, have been drill tested. We are focusing on areas of anomalous gold with 8 to 10 reconnaissance holes using data from the recently-completed, high-resolution, magnetic/electromagnetic airborne survey that identified potential structures correlating with the gold enriched areas.”

Steve Stares, President and CEO of Benton, says: “With the rapid pace in which the Alliance has advanced the Grey River project to its inaugural drill program, I’m very excited to see what this large silica system might hold as we carry out this first phase of drilling.”

Sokoman Reports Strong Gold Grain Counts In Till At Fleur De Lys Project North-Central Newfoundland

Multiple targets outlined in Phase 1 Program from 50% of Results

St. John’s, NL, October 06, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that the Phase 1, C-Horizon till sampling program, at the Fleur de Lys Gold Project has been completed with preliminary results outlining multiple anomalous areas. A total of 823 samples were collected in Phase 1 on lines 1.5 km to 2 km apart with sample spacing along the lines at 250 m. To date, gold grain counts have been received for 400 samples with multiple anomalies identified. The table below outlines the number of samples reporting anomalous results.

Based on discussions with Ottawa-based Overburden Drilling Management (ODM), the company overseeing the project, background gold grain counts have been determined to be 10 grains per sample with an anomalous sample having 2X background or 20 gold grains. Of the 400 results received to date, 109 contain at least 20 gold grains and are considered anomalous with the two highest gold grain counts, 111 and 116 grains, carrying 90 and 84 pristine grains respectively, suggesting a very local source (less than 200 metres) on the Fleur de Lys property. A follow-up program of infill tills, based on the results to date, will commence immediately.

The field crews have also collected 60-plus rock samples with all samples pending assays. Most samples submitted for assay have in excess of 1% pyrite (iron sulphide), chalcopyrite (copper sulphide), or galena (lead sulphide).

It is expected that follow-up till sampling and prospecting will continue until late fall.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, said: “We are extremely pleased with the results to date at the Fleur de Lys Gold Project where our exploration has defined multiple areas where gold in till is strongly suggesting a source area in Fleur de Lys units. The Fleur de Lys Supergroup that underlies the area are equivalent rocks to the Dalradian Supergroup in the UK, where three significant gold deposits are known to occur, including the Curraghinalt and Cavanacaw deposits in Northern Ireland, and Cononish in Scotland. These gold deposits occur in moderate- to high-grade metamorphic terrains, like the Fleur de Lys, and involve significant gold resources. For example, the Curraghinalt deposit has more than 6 million ounces of NI 43-101 compliant gold resources, including 6.3 M tonnes at 15 g/t (M+I) and 7.2 M tonnes at 12.24 g/t (Inferred).”

About the Fleur de Lys Gold Project

The 100%-owned Fleur de Lys Gold Project is located on the Baie Verte Peninsula in north-central Newfoundland. The area is highly prospective for Dalradian-style (e.g., Curraghinalt) orogenic vein-hosted gold deposits and as such, represents a readily accessible yet underexplored, district-scale, gold target in the Newfoundland Appalachians. The property has seen little modern exploration, with some areas remaining completely unexplored. Historical grab sample grades of 3.3 g/t Au to 25.5 g/t Au are reported from several separate locations (Note: historical assays have not been verified by the Company and should not be relied upon.)

Reconnaissance till sampling by Sokoman in 2019/2020 in the Fleur de Lys belt defined multiple gold targets, in 129 C-horizon till samples, was sent to Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) in Ottawa for gold grain analysis. Results gave 38 samples with >20 grains, 14 >40 grains and a maximum of 122 grains with many with high gold grain counts having a high percentage (30-80%) of pristine grains, suggesting a local (< 1 km) source for the gold. The 2021 exploration has continued this early work and has already defined targets for follow-up in 2021 and more advanced exploration in 2022.

COVID-19 Protocols

To ensure a working environment that protects the health and safety of the staff and contractors, Sokoman is operating under federally and provincially mandated and recommended guidelines during the current COVID-19 alert level.

Till Sampling QA/QC

The till samples were collected by Sokoman personnel using field collection techniques provided by ODM. All samples were hand dug to the desired depth (C- Horizon Till) with a 10 kg -12 kg sieved sample (8 mesh) placed in a clear-plastic sample bag and sealed. Samples were shipped in plastic pails by bonded courier to the ODM lab in Ottawa, Ontario. The till samples were processed using procedures designed to progressively concentrate the heavy minerals, expose the gold grains, and prepare a split of the heavy mineral concentrate (“HMC”), suitable for geochemical analysis if requested. The sample is wet screened at 2 mm with a preliminary concentrate extracted from the -2 mm fraction by tabling. Geological observations on the character of the sample are made during both the screening and tabling operations. The table concentrate is purposely large (typically 300 g – 400 g) and of low grade (10% – 25% heavy minerals) to achieve a high, 80% to 90% recovery rate for all desired heavy minerals irrespective of their grain size or relative specific gravity. The gold grains, more than 95% of which are normally silt-sized (Averill 2001), are observed at this stage with the aid of micro-panning and are counted, measured, and classified as to degree of wear (i.e. distance of glacial transport), then returned to the table concentrate. The pyrite content of the pan concentrate is estimated and the number of grains of heavier, visually distinctive indicator minerals such as arsenopyrite, galena, scheelite, cinnabar etc. is recorded.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance Measures

In addition to using field duplicates to monitor the quality of the indicator mineral data obtained from specific projects, ODM performs blind tests to ensure that the recovery rates for all targeted minerals are consistently in the 80 to 90% range. Furthermore, both the quality of the mineral separation and the overall mineralogy of the concentrate are visible at every stage of the concentration process, minimizing the potential for sample mix-ups, indicator mineral carryover between samples and other potential contamination issues. For example, gold grains, which are the most important indicator mineral on many surveys, are more susceptible to inter-sample carryover than any other indicator mineral due to their very small size, but these grains are physically observed during the first stage of mineral concentration, tabling, and, if anomalous concentrations are present, blank samples are tabled and carefully inspected for gold grains before the next project sample is processed.

Sokoman Expands 75 Zone And Releases Additional Results From Eastern Trend, Moosehead Gold Project, Central Newfoundland

New Structure Intersected 300 m East of Eastern Trend;

Barge-Based Drilling on North Pond Underway at Footwall Splay and Upper Eastern Trend

 

St. John’s, NL, September 28, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that ongoing Phase 6 drilling at the 100%-owned Moosehead Property in central Newfoundland has intersected additional high-grade gold mineralization at both the Lower Eastern Trend and in the 75 Zone, located approximately 100 m along strike south of the main Eastern Trend. (Note: see full table of results, plan map and long section for the 75 Zone and the Eastern Trend further in this release. Not all previous intersections appear on section.)

Highlights of the recently-received rush assays (including total pulp metallics) include:

  • MH-21-234: 30.59 g/t Au over 2.75 m (within 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au)
    from the 75 Zone

  • MH-21-243: 32.72 g/t Au over 1.70 m (within 9.20 m of 6.70 g/t Au)
    from the 75 Zone

  • MH-21-215: 36.15 g/t Au over 0.35 m (within 2.35 m of 20.39 g/t Au)
    from the Eastern Trend

  • MH-21-229: 18.41 g/t Au over 2.10 m (within 5.10 m of 7.64 g/t Au)
    from the Eastern Trend

The Company is also pleased to announce that reconnaissance drilling testing for the source of gold-bearing boulders, discovered earlier this year 300 m to the east of North Pond (see July 6, 2021 news release), has intersected a significant structure (named the 253 Zone), featuring strong quartz veining and variable sulphide mineralization, mainly pyrite and arsenopyrite. Assays are pending and additional drilling is planned.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the progress of Phase 6 with approximately 19,000 m remaining to be drilled this year. Today’s results give strong support to the growth potential of the 75 Zone with the drilling suggesting that the 75 Zone is linked to the larger Eastern Trend to the north. Our goal is to verify this connection by drilling step-out holes to the north and also down-plunge to test the zone at depth.

“The barge-based component of Phase 6 has started, and the first hole has been completed without any issues with drilling to continue until freeze-up, expected to be in late November / early December. At least 5,000 m of drilling is planned to test the Upper Eastern Trend and Footwall Splay targets where previous drilling has given some of our best holes to date including earlier Phase 6 hole MH-21-115 that gave 4.6 m of 47 g/t Au (Footwall Splay) and 8 m of 68 g/t Au (Upper Eastern Trend).

“We are also pleased to report that drilling which tested the area of the VG boulders, located earlier this summer (July 6, 2021, News Release), has intersected a previously unknown structure, parallel to the main Eastern Trend. The new structure (the 253 Zone), which carries significant veining with associated sulphides, is potentially several kilometres in strike extent based on geophysics, is open both to the northeast and southwest and will be subject to further drilling this fall. Assays are pending and further details will be provided once additional holes have been completed and assays have been received.

“We currently have four drills at Moosehead, including the recently arrived barge rig. Our intention is to temporarily relocate one of the land-based rigs for a month to carry out a Phase 1 drill program (2,000 m) at our Grey River JV with Benton Resources Inc. to test high-priority targets before winter sets in. This will take place shortly with the rig returning to Moosehead to continue testing regional targets, including the newly discovered 253 Zone until year-end.”

75 Zone

Drilling at the 75 Zone continues on 10 m – 15 m step-outs from MH-19-75, originally drilled in the fall of 2019 that had a 5.80 m intersection of 6.93 g/t Au from 87.50 m downhole, including two visible gold-bearing veins that gave 30.42 g/t Au over 0.30 m, and 32.99 g/t Au over 0.80 m. MH-21-234, collared 60 m northwest of MH-19-75, gave 30.59 g/t Au over 2.75 m (within 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au). MH-21-243, collared 80 m south-southwest of MH-19-75, gave 32.72 g/t Au over 1.70 m (within 9.20 m of 6.70 g/t Au). These results give the 75 Zone a minimum 100 m north-south strike extent and open to depth from surface. Drilling will continue in the area until the end of the season.

Eastern Trend

One drill continues to infill / extend gold mineralization in the Lower Eastern Trend, and the barge-based drilling has commenced in the Upper Eastern Trend / Footwall Splay targets. Results from the Eastern Trend and the 75 Zone, up to September 28, 2021, are shown in the table below.

Results to-date indicate good continuity with high-grade intersections in the Lower Eastern Trend, including holes MH-21-215 and 229. MH-21-229, designed to test the up-dip continuity of an interpreted high-grade ore shoot 20 m above MH-20-98. MH-20-98 intersected 4.16 g/t Au / 5.65 m including 8.21 g/t Au / 2.50 m at a downhole depth of 296 m. MH-21-229 intersected 18.41 g/t Au over 2.10 m (within 5.10 m of 7.64 g/t Au), showing good continuity in the area that has received limited drilling. MH-21-215 cut two zones of mineralization including a high-grade zone of 36.15 g/t Au over 0.35 m (within 2.35 m of 20.39 g/t Au), and a lower zone of 2.01 g/t Au over 2.70 m with considerable up-plunge potential. At least 5,000 m remain to be completed in this area this year.

About the Moosehead Gold Project

The 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project is located along the Trans-Canada Highway in north-central Newfoundland, on the same structural trend as the advanced Valentine Lake Project (Marathon Gold), and adjacent to New Found Gold’s Queensway Project. Both the Moosehead and Queensway projects are targeting high-grade, turbidite-hosted, Fosterville-type gold mineralization. At least five zones of significant gold bearing mineralization have been identified to date at Moosehead with multiple high-priority targets, independent of the known zones, remaining to be tested. In Phases 1 to 5, the Company completed 23,378 m (106 holes). In Phase 6, the Company has completed 31,000 m in 170 holes (up to MH-21-280) of the 50,000 m drill program.

Sokoman And Benton Confirm First High-Grade Lithium Discovery In Newfoundland At The Golden Hope Project

Composite grab sampling returns 2.37% Li2O

St. John’s, NL, September 16, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”) (together, “the Alliance”) are pleased to announce analyses for 35 of 58 follow-up samples from the recently discovered swarm of Lithium-bearing pegmatite dikes on the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project in southwestern Newfoundland. The 35 grab and chip samples were collected over a 1 km2 area over the swarm of poorly-exposed pegmatite and aplite dykes. The follow-up sampling has confirmed that the pegmatites carry significant Lithium values, the first significant occurrence of Lithium documented in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

  • 31.4% of the samples gave values >1% Li2O

    1. The Lithium-bearing samples were taken over a poorly-exposed pegmatite swarm covering 1 km2

    2. Additional results are pending (23 samples) along a 1 km strike of pegmatites

    3. Lithium, Beryllium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values were located 2 km to the west of the initial discovery

Of the 35 samples, 11 gave values greater than 1% Li2O with three greater than 2% Li2O, and a high of 2.37% Li2O. The dominant Lithium-bearing mineral appears to be spodumene (LiAl(SiO3)2) which occurs as clusters of elongated prismatic crystals up to 5-cm-long in a grey-white matrix of glassy quartz and feldspar and a pale-green to white mica (see photo of sample 361716). Multiple samples from the aplite dikes give highly-anomalous Cesium (17 ppm to 508 ppm Cs), Rubidium (226 ppm to 1310 ppm Rb) and Tantalum (5 ppm to 179 ppm Ta), typical of evolved pegmatite swarms. Samples 361715-718 were a series of 0.5 m2 composite samples from the discovery outcrop that measures 10m x 3m and is 100% pegmatite. The dike margins are overburden covered and actual width of the dike is not known. All other samples were taken over the broader mineralized area. The following table gives the results for the composite samples and other higher-grade Li values from the area.

Spodumene crystals in Sample 361716 (1.82% Li2O)

The Alliance also discovered high-grade Beryllium values with 2 grab samples grading >5000 ppm Be, with others ranging from 6 ppm to >5000 ppm Be, with associated anomalous Lithium, Cesium, Rubidium and Tantalum values. These samples, mineralogy unknown, are located approximately 2 km to the west of the Li discovery, providing further evidence that it is an evolved pegmatite system. Additional samples, taken up to 1,000 m along strike, have been submitted for analysis and are pending.

Samples were submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares states: “The discovery of this new Lithium, Beryllium, Cesium, Tantalum and Rubidium mineralization in Newfoundland continues to show the Island’s vast potential. Although this is the first discovery of Lithium in Newfoundland, the geological environment and setting to discover these types of large systems have already been proven and discovered in the Appalachian belt. This includes the important deposits held by Piedmont Lithium Inc in the Carolinas, eastern US, as well as the geologically equivalent Avalonia Project being advanced by Ganfeng Lithium in the Caledonides of Ireland. Benton and Sokoman will use these deposits for synergies and modeling as we advance this new discovery towards drilling.”

Sokoman’s President and CEO Tim Froude adds: “We are very pleased to have unequivocally verified high-grade Lithium mineralization at Golden Hope, the first such significant occurrence in Newfoundland. While still early days, significant Lithium mineralization in similar geological settings, elsewhere in the greater Appalachian belt, bodes well for the potential of this discovery to be of significance to our shareholders. While continuing to explore the pegmatites for Li and associated elements, the claims were originally staked for gold and we are presently processing and merging our recently-flown airborne data with pre-existing data to highlight gold targets on the 750 sq km property.”

The Alliance has completed a 5,709 line-km Heliborne, High-Resolution, Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey, flown by Terraquest Ltd. The survey will provide the structural/ lithological setting to help identify gold-bearing structure extensions, as well as any unrecognized structures including those potentially related to the Lithium-bearing pegmatites.

Sokoman And Benton Confirm High-Grade Gold And Receipt Of Drill Permits For Grey River, Southern Newfoundland

Chip sampling with visible gold returns up to 134.46 g/t Au

St. John’s, NL, September 2, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”), members of a joint exploration alliance previously announced on May 27, 2021 (together, “the Alliance”), are pleased to announce they have received high-grade gold assays up to 134.46 g/t Au (visible gold noted in sample) at the Grey River Joint Venture located on the south coast of Newfoundland. The Alliance collected a series of grab and chip samples from outcrop and local float, and assays range from less than detection to 134.46 g/t Au (sampling details provided below). The sampling focused on an area roughly 500 m by 300 m immediately west of Gulch Cove where historical gold values of 225 g/t Au were reported by previous workers (see map).

The high-grade visible gold-bearing sample (480309) is located a few metres from tidewater and consisted of a 0.50 cm chip believed to be at the same location as the 225 g/t Au historical sample reported by previous workers. The sample also contained anomalous bismuth (>1000 ppm Bi), and silver (>6 ppm Ag), for which overlimit assaying is pending. A second sample (480310), contiguous with the aforementioned sample, returned 3.09 g/t Au from a 30 cm chip. In addition, a number of anomalous grab samples ranging from less than detection to 1.22 g/t Au were returned from the sampling over a 500 m strike length of the quartz zone that has been mapped by the government over an 8 kilometre E-W strike length and up to 300 m in width. Further sampling along this trend to the west has been completed in recent days and submitted for assay.

The Alliance has also completed sampling of five archived drill holes that were drilled for silica by the Newfoundland government in 1968. The drilling took place approximately 2 kilometres east of where the high-grade results are located. Examination of the old cores revealed up to 2% disseminated pyrite locally, and for which no records of gold assaying could be found. A total of 23 samples were taken that ranged from 0.25 m to 2.80 m in length with an average length of 1.21 m. Samples were sent to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, NL for Au and ICP analysis.

The Alliance is also very pleased to announce that drilling permits have been received, and it intends to proceed immediately with sourcing a drill and crew, as well as addressing the logistical issues that will be faced. Drilling will most likely take place in October when conditions on the South Coast are more amenable to flying as it will be a helicopter-supported program. Total metres and number of holes will be refined once the geophysics has been modelled with the assay data and geology.

A recently completed Heliborne High Resolution Magnetic and Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey flown by Terraquest Ltd. totaling 1099-line kilometres is currently being processed and will be used to further refine drill targets on the property.

The Grey River Project is targeting high-grade vein-hosted gold mineralization similar in style to the world class Pogo Mine in Alaska with past production of more than four million ounces of gold and current reserves of 5.9 Mt @ 8.0 g/t gold (1.5 million ounces gold) and resources of 23 Mt @ 9.8 g/t gold (6.9 million ounces gold). Source: Northern Star Resources Website – August 2021.

Mineralization hosted at the Pogo Mine in Alaska is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Grey River property.

Sokoman Receives Final Water Permit For Barge-Based Drilling At Moosehead Gold Project, Newfoundland 

St. John’s, NL, August 18, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) today announced that it has received the Water Resources Permit from the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador to begin barge-based drilling at the Company’s 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project in central Newfoundland. The recently arrived third drill rig will be moved onto the barge once the drilling of a fence of holes at the 75 Zone is finished. The barge drill program will focus on the Upper Eastern Trend and Footwall Splay targets, estimated to constitute between 5,000 m and 10,000 m of drilling, with drill hole depths expected to be 100 m or less with a few reaching 215 m. The drill program is expected to run into the fall.

About the Moosehead Gold Project

The 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project is located along the Trans-Canada Highway in north-central Newfoundland, Canada, on the same structural trend as the advanced Valentine Lake Project (Marathon Gold), and adjacent to New Found Gold’s Queensway Project. Both the Moosehead and Queensway projects are targeting high-grade, turbidite-hosted, Fosterville-type gold mineralization. At least five zones of significant gold-bearing mineralization have been identified at Moosehead with multiple high-priority targets, independent of the known zones, remaining to be tested. Drilling to date has constituted 23,378 m in 106 holes in Phases 1 to 5, and 24,500 m in 135 holes of a planned 50,000 m program in Phase 6.

Sokoman And Benton Announce Discovery Of High-Grade Lithium-Bearing Pegmatites At Golden Hope In Southwestern Newfoundland

Two samples, 110 m apart, return 1.95% and 0.49% Li2O respectively

St. John’s, NL, August 16, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (“Sokoman”) and Benton Resources Inc. (TSXV: BEX) (“Benton”), which are 50/50 members of a joint exploration alliance previously announced on May 10, 2021 (together, “the Alliance”), are pleased to announce that they have discovered a swarm of lithium-bearing pegmatite dikes on the Golden Hope Joint Venture Project in southwestern Newfoundland, Canada. Benton’s President and CEO Stephen Stares and Director Michael Stares, along with Sokoman’s President and CEO Timothy Froude and consultant Sean O’Brien, identified the pegmatites on a recent field visit, collecting three grab samples over a 110-m-width across the dykes. Two of the samples returned 1.95% Li2O and 0.49% Li2O, believed to be the first discovery of significant lithium mineralization on the Island of Newfoundland. Lithium occurrences in the Appalachian belt are well known and include important deposits in the Carolinas in the eastern US, as well as in the geologically equivalent Caledonides of Ireland.

The lithium mineralization is situated in a so-far unknown-sized zone or swarm of pegmatite dykes with an apparent width of 110 m and as-yet unknown strike length. Random grab samples were collected near what is believed to be the northern and southern limits of the zone and submitted to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis by Sodium Peroxide Fusion ICPOES + ICPMS.

The focus of the Alliance remains the gold potential of the Golden Hope Project. However, the discovery of the lithium-bearing pegmatites is significant, therefore Sokoman and Benton will pursue this opportunity for the benefit of their respective shareholders. As a reference, Canaccord Genuity Group Inc., in an August 12, 2021 update report on lithium, forecasts lithium prices to continue climbing on growing demand from higher-than-expected global electric vehicle sales paired with supply shortfalls.

Sokoman’s President and CEO, Timothy Froude, P.Geo., states: “The discovery of what we believe to be the first lithium-rich pegmatites in Newfoundland could be very significant for shareholders of both Sokoman and Benton. A crew will be dispatched to the discovery site later this week for detailed sampling and documentation of the dykes. While the Alliance remains firmly committed to the evaluation of the gold potential of the property, we believe that the new discovery requires immediate follow-up sampling. This is a prime example of the enormous untapped resource potential that the Island has to offer.”

“To be part of the first ever lithium discovery in Newfoundland is simply extraordinary. Michael and I have previously been involved in several lithium discoveries in Ontario, so we understand the scale and grade of what it takes to make a deposit. These extremely early results at Golden Hope indicate that this new discovery could fit those criteria. We can hardly wait for the next sampling phase,” added Stephen Stares, President and CEO of Benton Resources.

The Alliance has completed the previously announced 5,709 line-km Heliborne High-Resolution Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey flown by Terraquest Ltd. with the data currently being processed. The survey will provide the structural / lithological setting and help identify gold-bearing structure extensions, as well as any unrecognized structures including those potentially related to the lithium pegmatites.

Sokoman Minerals Mobilizes Third Drill Rig At Moosehead Gold Project, Newfoundland

St. John’s, NL, August 10, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) today announced that the third drill rig has arrived at the Company’s 100%-owned flagship Moosehead Gold Project in north-central Newfoundland and will be deployed immediately to test high-priority targets in the 75 Zone and Eastern Trend areas where up to 15,000 metres of the remaining 27,000 metres remain to be drilled in the current phase. Once the Water Resources Permit has been received, the drill rig will be relocated to drill from the barge that is ready to be mobilized to the property. The barge program alone could entail as much as 5,000 to 10,000 m, depending on success and depths, to target the Footwall Splay and as much of the Eastern Trend that can be accessed. The contractor is also in the process of securing the fourth drill rig and crew for deployment as soon as practicable.

Just under 23,000 m of the proposed 50,000 m Phase 6 program has been completed to date and multiple strong intersections have been reported from this phase including the holes summarized as follows:

  • MH-21-115 (Footwall Splay – Eastern Trend) – 4.60 m @ 47.20 g/t Au; and 8.10 m @ 68.25 g/t Au

  • MH-21-163 (Footwall Splay – Eastern Trend) – 18.90 m @ 13.09 g/t Au

  • MH-21-141 (South Pond Zone 1) – 4.20 m @ 64.00 g/t Au

  • MH-21-123 (South Pond Zone 1) – 5.00 m @ 26.87 g/t Au

  • MH-21-203 (75 Zone) – 2.85 m @ 13.67 g/t Au

Sokoman Announces High-Grade Results Demonstrating Continuity Of Eastern Trend Mineralization At The Moosehead Project, Central Newfoundland

St. John’s, NL, July 29, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that ongoing Phase 6 drilling at the 100% owned Moosehead Property in central Newfoundland has intersected additional high-grade gold with multiple holes reporting visible gold mineralization.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “Drilling continues to confirm high-grade gold at Moosehead and provide insights into the complex geological controls on the high-grade mineralization. Our methodical approach is paying off as we continue to intersect and extend the interpreted high-grade shoots that lie within the larger envelope of gold mineralization. With high-grade gold existing in all known zones within an area at least 700 m in strike, up to 200 m in width, and at least 250 m vertical, the potential to link these zones as well as expand the footprint of the Moosehead system is high. Drilling will continue with two rigs and arrival of the barge rig on the property is expected to be two – three weeks. The barge is ready and will be mobilized immediately on receipt of the Water Resources permit, which is the only permit outstanding. We will be posting all Phase 6 drill hole summaries on our website as soon as compilation and updating of sections and plans are complete.”

75 Zone

While waiting on assays for South Pond the drill was relocated to the 75 Zone to assess the southern extension of the Eastern Trend. Borehole MH-19-75 was originally drilled in the fall of 2019 and returned a 5.80 m intersection (core length) grading 6.93 g/t Au starting at 87.50 m downhole, including two visible gold-bearing veins that assayed 30.42 g/t Au over 0.30 m (from 88.95 m), and 32.99 g/t Au over 0.80 m (from 92.50 m). The initial follow-up program around MH-19-75 was based on 25 m step outs which the Company has determined to be less than ideal for evaluating these complex shear systems. MH-21-203 returned 13.67 g/t Au over 2.85 m from 98.15 m downhole – a 10 m step out to the south from MH-19-75. MH-21-205 – a 15 m step out from MH-19-75 (and up-dip from MH-21-203) intersected four veins with visible gold, returning 2.88 g/t Au over 4.25 m including 7.89 g/t Au over 1.25 m. Given these results the drill will continue at the 75 Zone.

South Pond

At South Pond, ongoing drilling has defined a steeply-plunging, high-grade core within the moderately to steeply east-northeast dipping mineralized zone. Modeling of the area suggests that South Pond is possibly a splay off the Eastern Trend structure to the east, with many similar characteristics to the original Footwall Splay at North Pond. This interpretation bodes well for continued exploration between South Pond and Western Trend (approximately 250 m corridor) not only for gold mineralization on the main structures but for repeating splays as well.

Eastern Trend

Drill holes MH-21-193, 198 and 200 all focused on the Lower Eastern Trend between vertical depths of 150 to 200 m and were follow-up to previous drilled holes MH-19-62 (7.20 m @ 22.35 g/t Au and MH-19-81 (6.40 m @ 17.34 g/t Au). The results have confirmed continuity of gold mineralization in the Lower Eastern Trend and drilling will continue in this area for the foreseeable future.

Previous drilling in the Eastern Trend intersected gold mineralization on structures both above and below the main mineralized envelope. Ongoing close-spaced drilling of the Lower Eastern Trend indicates that there is more regularity and predictability to these intersections. The upcoming barge-based program will be key to assessing the up-plunge potential and whether these structures prove to be additional high-grade splays and or parallel structures.

About the Moosehead Gold Project

The 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project is located along the Trans-Canada Highway in north central Newfoundland, on the same structural trend as the advanced Valentine Lake Project (Marathon Gold), and adjacent to New Found Gold’s Queensway Project. Both the Moosehead and Queensway projects are targeting high-grade, turbidite-hosted, Fosterville-type gold mineralization. At least five zones of significant gold bearing mineralization have been identified to date at Moosehead and multiple high-priority targets independent of the known zones remain to be tested. In Phases 1 to 5 the Company completed 23,378 m (106 holes). In Phase 6 the Company has completed 22,326 m to-date to hole MH-21-228 (120 holes in this Phase) of the 50,000 m drill program at Moosehead.

All core samples submitted for assay were saw cut by Sokoman personnel with one-half submitted for assay and one-half retained for reference. Samples were delivered in sealed bags directly to the lab by Sokoman personnel. Samples, including duplicates, blanks and standards, were submitted to Eastern Analytical Ltd. in Springdale, Newfoundland for gold analysis. Eastern Analytical Ltd. is an accredited assay lab that conforms to the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025. Samples with possible visible gold were submitted for total pulp metallics and gravimetric finish. All other samples were analyzed by standard fire assay methods. Total pulp metallic analysis includes: the whole sample is crushed to -10 mesh; then pulverized to 95% -150 mesh. The total sample is weighed and screened 150 mesh; the +150 mesh fraction is fire assayed for Au, and a 30 g subsample of the -150 mesh fraction is fire assayed for Au; with a calculated weighted average of total Au in the sample reported as well. One blank and one industry approved standard for every twenty samples submitted, is included in the sample stream. Random duplicates of selected samples are analyzed in addition to the in-house standard and duplicate policies of Eastern Analytical. All reported assays are uncut.

  • Grey River JV: sampling in the vicinity of the historical 225 g/t Au sample site resulted in the identification of visible gold in a portion of the mineralized zone; samples submitted for assays; high-resolution airborne geophysical survey to begin shortly.

  • Golden Hope JV: initial reconnaissance mission completed; rock samples, stream sediment and C-horizon till samples submitted for assays; in the process of completing high-resolution airborne geophysical survey.

  • Kepenkeck JV: completed a high-resolution airborne geophysical survey; a prospecting program has begun; a detailed soil sampling program to commence shortly; first assay results from sampling deemed very encouraging.

Moosehead Project

Phase 6 drilling program is ongoing at Moosehead with two rigs. While there has been a delay in getting a third drill rig on-site due to the current shortage of the drill crew experienced by Sokoman’s preferred drilling contractor who knows the property area well, Sokoman has recently been advised that the third rig is expected to join the program in 2-3 weeks. The third rig will now be designated for the barge-based program which is awaiting final approval from the Department of Environment. The Company is looking at adding a fourth drill rig as soon as possible and will keep investors posted on the progress made in that regard.

Once the third rig is on site, Sokoman plans to be alternating the initial two drills in order to test regional targets that could easily lead to other discoveries in addition to extending currently known zones.

Just under 20,000 m of the proposed 50,000 m Phase 6 program has been completed and multiple strong intersections have been reported from this phase including the holes summarized as follows:
MH-21-115 (Footwall Splay – Eastern Trend) – 4.60 m @ 47.20 g/t Au; and 8.10 m @ 68.25 g/t Au
MH-21-163 (Footwall Splay – Eastern Trend) – 18.90 m @ 13.09 g/t Au
MH-21-141 (South Pond Zone 1) – 4.20 m @ 64.00 g/t Au
MH-21-123 (South Pond Zone 1) – 5.00 m @ 26.87 g/t Au

*Reported lengths are core lengths and are believed to be 70% to 85% of true thickness

The barge program could entail as much as 5,000 to 10,000 m, depending on success and depths, to target the Footwall Splay and as much of the Eastern Trend that can be accessed.

Drilling will continue at the South Pond target as well as on the nearby 75 Zone, which is an open-ended mineralized block lying 100 m northeast of the South Pond target, approximately halfway to the Eastern Trend, and which delivered MH-19-75 (5.80 m of 6.93 g/t Au, including a VG bearing vein grading 32.99 g/t Au over 0.80 m) and remains open. The 75 Zone drilling will help determine whether it is linked to any known zone or is a new splay. Currently a four-to-six-hole program is focused on this area. Once completed, the drill will be assigned to test some of the high-priority geochemical and geophysical targets elsewhere on the property while awaiting assays.

Fleur de Lys Project

The property-scale till sampling program is approximately 40% complete with 357 samples submitted for gold grain and heavy mineral analysis at Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) in Ottawa. The sample collection is being supervised by ODM utilizing contract crews. Results from the early sampling are expected in the next 2-3 weeks. Prospecting has been ongoing concurrent with the till sampling, and approximately 40 rock samples have been submitted for assay, many with disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite, minerals linked to several gold-enriched deposits in the UK, including the six-million-ounce Curraghinalt deposit in Northern Ireland, with which the Fleur de Lys project shares many characteristics.

Grey River Sokoman/ Benton JV Project

Airborne geophysical surveying totalling 1,099 line-kilometres is about to begin at the 324-claim (8,100 hectares – 81 sq km) Grey River JV in southern Newfoundland and will consist of a Heliborne High-Resolution Magnetic and Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey flown by Terraquest Ltd. The results of the survey will help define structural targets that may be associated with the gold mineralization at Grey River. The property is targeting high-grade gold mineralization similar to that currently being mined at Pogo, Alaska with published reserves of 6.9 million ounces at 9.4 g/t Au (Northern Star Resources website March 31, 2021), as well as other styles of gold mineralization including shear zone and intrusion-related gold.

Management of Sokoman and Benton have visited the Grey River and the Golden Hope properties to establish priorities and to engage in sampling as many areas of known mineralization. The visit to Grey River was extremely successful in that sampling in the vicinity of the historical 225 g/t Au sample site resulted in the identification of visible gold in a portion of the mineralized zone. In addition, prospecting in the immediate area identified several other mineralized horizons that did not appear to be previously sampled. Assays are pending from a suite of samples collected from several locations on the property. The historical “Quartz Zone” reported by previous workers is impressive and extends for several kilometres in an east west direction (photos can be viewed on Sokoman’s website under the Grey River Project tab) and is up to 200-300 metres in width locally. Multiple gold showings are known along most of its length ranging from 100-200 ppb Au to 225 g/t Au, but no drilling has been carried out at any of the known gold occurrences. The companies have applied for drilling permits which will target these zones.

Golden Hope Sokoman/ Benton JV Project

Exploration has also commenced on the 3,176-claim (79,400 hectares – 794 sq km) Golden Hope Property in southwestern Newfoundland, including a 5,709-line-kilometre Heliborne High-Resolution Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey being flown by Terraquest Ltd. The survey will help provide an overall structural picture of the property and identify extensions of known gold-bearing structures as well as any previously unrecognized structures on the property. An initial reconnaissance mission at Golden Hope was completed earlier this month by management of Sokoman and Benton in order to get a firsthand look at the ground and to obtain samples in as many areas as possible (photos can be viewed on Sokoman’s website under the Golden Hope Project tab). Mineralization observed included multiple occurrences of structurally controlled quartz veins with variable amounts of pyrite, as well as a previously unknown zone of locally significant arsenopyrite and pyrite (as stringers and veinlets comprising up to 10% of rock volume), that was noted to be several dozen metres in thickness and of unknown strike length. Overall, approximately 50 rock samples as well as seven stream sediment and four C-horizon till samples were collected and submitted for assaying/processing.

Kepenkeck Sokoman/ Benton Resources JV Project

The Company has been informed by Joint Venture partner Benton that a Heliborne High-Resolution Aeromagnetic & Matrix Digital VLF-EM Survey totaling 1,984 line-kilometres has been flown by Terraquest Ltd. A prospecting program has begun, and a detailed soil sampling program will commence shortly. The Kepenkeck property lies in east-central Newfoundland, along trend from Canstar Resources’ Golden Baie project and immediately east of New Found Gold’s Queensway project. The target is high grade and quartz veining, hosted in graphitic shales similar to that of the New Found Gold property.

The companies have received the first assay results from 24 samples submitted. Gold grading from >5 ppb to 5,340 ppb have been obtained from localized float and outcrops. The companies are very encouraged by these early results, and follow-up has been planned to further these discoveries.

 

 

About the Flagship Moosehead Gold Project

The 100%-owned Moosehead Gold Project is located along the Trans-Canada Highway in north central Newfoundland, on the same structural trend as the advanced Valentine Lake Project (Marathon Gold), and adjacent to New Found Gold’s Queensway Project. Both the Moosehead and Queensway projects are targeting high-grade, turbidite-hosted, Fosterville-type gold mineralization. At least five zones of significant gold bearing mineralization have been identified to date at Moosehead and multiple high-priority targets independent of the known zones remain to be tested. The Company has completed approximately 20,000 m of a current 50,000 m drill program at Moosehead.

Sokoman Announces Additional High-Grade Results From The Moosehead Project, Central Newfoundland

New Visible-Gold-Bearing Boulders Discovered with Values up to 14 g/t Au

St. John’s, NL, July 6, 2021 – Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that ongoing Phase 6 drilling at the 100%-owned Moosehead Property in central Newfoundland has intersected additional high-grade gold mineralization at both the Eastern Trend and South Pond Zones. In addition, prospecting in an area 300 m to the east of North Pond, an area with minimal drilling, has located visible-gold-bearing quartz float returning 9.2 and 14.3 g/t Au from total pulp metallics assays with additional assays pending.

Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the results from the early stages of this summer exploration program at Moosehead. The discovery of a new high-grade boulder train at the limits of our drilling suggests that other mineralized zones are likely to be found at Moosehead. Our experience to-date with boulders is that they are generally close to the source, given the average thickness of overburden. Drilling will continue and we are expecting the barge to arrive on the property in four-five weeks, permits are pending. Our drill results at the Lower Eastern Trend demonstrate good continuity and grade, and our most recent success in MH-21-191 at 165 m vertical is a great beginning as we infill the down-dip portion of the Eastern Trend. At South Pond, we have extended the near-surface, high-grade mineralization and are working our way to the north towards the Western Trend where this 250 m corridor has had minimal drilling, and we look forward to connecting these zones. Field work has also begun on all three JV projects with Benton Resources, and updates on all of them will be provided in the coming weeks.”

The table highlights results to date from the ongoing Phase 6 drilling program.

Core lengths – believed to be 70% to 90% of reported lengths.
** Follow-up logging and sampling was completed after priority core was logged and sampled.
Italicized text and figures denote new assays, all others are previously released.

South Pond

The recent drilling has extended the mineralized zones up and down dip. DDH MH-21-190 extended the “high-grade” intersection in MH-21-123 (5 m of 26.87 g/t Au) 11 m up dip, while DDH MH-21-184 extended the new near-surface mineralized zone, discovered in MH-21-152 (3.0 m of 1.82 g/t) 15 m down dip. The style of veining and mineral assemblage (boulangerite, arsenopyrite and sphalerite) in these holes is similar to the “high-grade” zones in MH-21-190. To date, the South Pond Zone has been traced 65 m along strike and from surface to 95 m down dip, remaining open both along strike and down dip.

Footwall Splay / Eastern Trend

Drilling of the Footwall Splay and Upper Eastern Trend reflects infill and step-out results. MH-21-167 collared in a visible-gold-bearing vein returning 2.94 g/t Au over 1.2 m, extending the Footwall Splay 27 m to the south from MH-21-157, which returned 12.39 g/t Au over 3.5 m including 28.57 g/t Au over 1.50 m from 36.3 m downhole. The Footwall Splay currently has a 175 m N-S strike length over a minimum width of 25 m. MH-21-178 tested the Upper Eastern Trend returning 4.72 g/t Au over 1.10 m from 30.20 m downhole, 25 m vertically below surface. Additional drilling will be carried out using a barge-based program on North Pond with the drill contractor modifying the barge to accommodate the drill. Sokoman anticipates starting this program in 4-6 weeks.

The Lower Eastern Trend was tested by MH-21-191, which returned 21.86 g/t Au over 3.60 m including 43.47 g/t Au over 1.80 m at a downhole depth of 244 m, a 9 m step-out from MH-16-62, which returned 22.35 g/t Au over 7.20 m including 33.59 g/t Au over 4.80 m.

Holes MH-21-163 and 165 both report shoulder and infill sampling, which enhances previously released results, including additional zones of mineralization.

High-Grade Boulders

Prospecting in the fall of 2020 discovered a cluster of angular quartz boulders 300 m to the east of North Pond with trace pyrite and arsenopyrite assaying <1 g/t Au. Recent follow-up prospecting, taking advantage of low water levels, located quartz boulders 20 m ESE of the original cluster. The new boulders carry arsenopyrite and lesser boulangerite and sphalerite, with multiple sights of fine visible gold. Two samples submitted for total pulp metallics and gravimetric finish analysis gave 14.81 g/t Au and 9.36 g/t Au. Prospecting along nearby brooks has located similar mineralized boulders with visible gold 250 m to the northeast, assays are pending. The boulders occur along a prominent northeast-trending structural lineament in the east-central portion of the property coinciding with strong linear magnetic and possibly associated VLF-EM anomalies. Three widely-spaced drill holes, completed earlier this year in the general area, did not adequately test this near-surface target. Additional drilling is planned.

Footwall Splay/Eastern Trend Main Zone

Previously released uncut drilling results. Lengths are core lengths and believed to be 70-90% true thickness.
