Program to Test Extensive Area of Gold Lake Sediment Anomalies
黃金湖沉積物異常廣泛區域測試程序
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solstice Gold Corp. (TSXV: SGC) ("Solstice", "we", "our" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a focused gold in till sampling program at its Atikokan Gold Project (the "Property") in the Hammond Gold Camp in NW Ontario.
卑詩省溫哥華，2024年6月12日，GLOBE NEWSWIRE——Solstice Gold Corp. (TSXV：SGC)（以下簡稱“Solstice”，“我們”，“我們的”或“公司”）很高興地宣佈，在安大略西北部漢默德金礦營地的Atikokan黃金項目（以下簡稱“物業”）啓動了一項集中的黃金滋潤樣品採樣計劃。該物業位於雷霆灣以西約120公里，伊格爾礦業公司擁有的漢默德礁金礦項目以東約26公里處，擁有幾個明顯的東北向構造。Solstice認爲，近年來，由探礦者和伊格爾進行的區域探險工作以及區域湖泊沉積物數據的分析，均表明Marmion花崗岩體內與東北向故障有關的新黃金髮現的潛力良好。
The 189 km2 Atikokan Property is located approximately 120 km west of Thunder Bay and 26 km east of the Hammond Reef Gold Project owned by Agnico Eagle Mines Limited1 and hosts several prominent NE trending structures. Solstice believes that regional exploration work in recent years by both prospectors and Agnico as well as analysis of regional lake sediment data have demonstrated good potential for new gold discoveries associated with NE trending faults within the Marmion Batholith.

Pablo McDonald, Solstice CEO stated, "we recently undertook an extensive analysis of regional lake sediment data as well as past till sampling programs in the Hammond Reef area, west of our landholdings. Based on the results, we have decided to undertake a focused till sampling program around one of the largest lake sediment anomalies in the Marmion Batholith, which occupies a large area in the centre of our Atikokan Property. We note that both lake sediment and gold in till anomalies are developed over the nearby Hammond Reef Gold Project. Based on the similarity of the lake sediment anomalies at Hammond Reef and on our Atikokan Property, we plan to employ detailed till sampling to identify possible source areas for the gold anomalies on our claims."
Solstice CEO Pablo McDonald表示：“最近我們對漢默德礁區域湖泊沉積物數據以及過去的滋潤樣品採樣計劃進行了廣泛的分析。根據結果，我們決定在Marmion花崗岩體內一處最大的湖泊沉積物異常周圍進行集中的滋潤樣品採樣計劃，該區域位於我們的Atikokan物業中心佔據大面積。我們注意到，漢默德礁金礦項目附近均有湖泊沉積物和滋潤樣品異常。鑑於漢默德礁地區及我們Atikokan物業內的湖泊沉積物異常相似，我們計劃使用詳細的滋潤樣品採樣來確定我們的索賠上黃金異常的可能來源區域。”
Lake Sediment Anomalies on Solstice claims
Solstice索賠中的湖泊沉積物異常
Analysis of lake sediment data by Solstice within the Marmion Batholith collected by the OGS2, and locally in the Lost Moose Lake area3 identifies two large, and several smaller gold in lake sediment anomalies on Solstice claims (see Figure 1). Till sampling by Osisko Mines Ltd on the Hammond Reef Gold Property in 20124 show that both gold in till and lake sediment anomalies are spatially associated with the Hammond Reef Deposit. Noting the potential significance of the Lost Moose Lake anomaly, the OGS observes that the Lost Moose "lake sediment geochemical signature is analogous to the signature of Marmion Lake batholith-type gold occurrences."5 Limited field work in the western edge of the area of lake sediments anomalies has identified a large area (1000 m2) of barren quartz veining which may be indicative of a more extensive, unexplored hydrothermal system (Figure 1).
Solstice通過OGS在Marmion花崗岩體中所收集的湖泊沉積物數據分析，以及在Lost Moose Lake附近進行的本地分析，確定了在Solstice索賠中存在兩個大型和幾個較小的含金湖泊沉積物異常（請參見圖1）。2Solstice通過OGS在Marmion花崗岩體中所收集的湖泊沉積物數據分析，以及在Lost Moose Lake附近進行的本地分析，確定了在Solstice索賠中存在兩個大型和幾個較小的含金湖泊沉積物異常（請參見圖1）。32012年Osisko Mines對Hammond Reef金礦物業的滋潤樣品採樣顯示，湖泊沉積物和滋潤樣品異常與Hammond Reef礦牀空間相關。鑑於Lost Moose Lake異常的潛在重要性，OGS觀察到Lost Moose“湖泊沉積物地球化學特徵類似於Marmion Lake岩漿花崗岩型金礦牀特徵。”42012年Osisko Mines對Hammond Reef金礦物業的滋潤樣品採樣顯示，湖泊沉積物和滋潤樣品異常與Hammond Reef礦牀空間相關。鑑於Lost Moose Lake異常的潛在重要性，OGS觀察到Lost Moose“湖泊沉積物地球化學特徵類似於Marmion Lake岩漿花崗岩型金礦牀特徵。”5湖泊沉積物異常區域西緣的有限野外工作確定了一個大區域（1000m)的貧礦脈石區，這可能預示着一個更爲廣泛、未開發的水熱系統（圖1）。2湖泊沉積物異常區域西緣的有限野外工作確定了一個大區域（1000m)的貧礦脈石區，這可能預示着一個更爲廣泛、未開發的水熱系統（圖1）。
The lake sediment anomaly on the Atikokan Property is also one of the largest in the Marmion Batholith and is similar in magnitude to the anomaly found at Hammond Reef. Solstice's Spring 2024 till sampling program is designed to test the area of this lake sediment anomaly using the same methodology as the 2012 till sampling program at Hammond Reef. If there is a gold in till anomaly spatially associated with the lake sediment anomaly on the Atikokan Property, Solstice believes that it would be a positive indication for the presence of in situ gold on our claims.
Atikokan物業的湖泊沉積物異常也是Marmion花崗岩體內最大的之一，與Hammond Reef發現的異常相似。Solstice在2024年春季的滋潤樣品採樣計劃旨在使用與2012年Hammond Reef的滋潤樣品採樣計劃相同的方法測試此湖泊沉積物異常區域。如果在Atikokan物業湖泊沉積物異常區域內存在與黃金含量異常空間相關的質量異常，那麼Solstice認爲，這將是我們索賠中原位黃金存在的積極跡象。
The Company wishes to caution that there is no known mineral deposit on its claims and that there is no assurance that the data or exploration programs discussed herein will define significant gold mineralization on its claims.
公司希望提醒您，我們的索賠中沒有已知的礦產資源，沒有保證所討論的數據或勘探計劃能夠確定我們索賠下的重大黃金成礦性。

Solstice Till Sampling Program, 2024
Solstice滋潤樣品採樣計劃，2024年。
To design and undertake the program, Solstice has engaged Overburden Drilling Management ("ODM"), who advised on the 2012 Hammond Reef till sampling program design and processed samples for gold grains. Leaders in heavy mineral geochemistry, ODM pioneered the use of till sampling to identify gold anomalies in overburden, which has led to numerous mine discoveries throughout Canada and the world.
爲了設計和執行此計劃，Solstice聘請了重載土壤管理公司（ODM），他們在2012年的Hammond Reef滋潤樣品採樣計劃設計和處理金顆粒方面提供了諮詢服務。ODM在重礦物地球化學方面處於領先地位，他們創立了使用滋潤樣品進行過burden金異常識別的方法，在加拿大和世界各地帶領了發現衆多礦牀的工作。
The Atikokan till sampling program will employ the same methodology documented for the 2012 Hammond Reef Property till sampling program. There is extensive till-bedrock terrain throughout the target area, which is ideal for quality till sampling. The approximately 10-kilogram samples will be collected from the C-horizon soil layer (immediately overlying bedrock), processed, tracked, and shipped to ODM's Nepean laboratory for analysis. Sample material will be thoroughly inspected for the presence of gold-indicator minerals. Gold grains that are identified within the samples will be counted, optically examined, and classified by morphology (pristine versus reshaped) to ascertain the transport distance from their original bedrock source. Upon completion of these studies, the heavy mineral concentrates will be submitted to an independent laboratory for assaying.
Atikokan滋潤樣品採樣計劃將採用文檔化的2012年Hammond Reef物業採樣計劃方法。目標區域內有大量的滋潤樣品-基岩地形，這是品質優良的滋潤樣品的理想地區。約10公斤的樣品將從C層土壤層（緊接着岩石底座）中採集，經加工處理，跟蹤和發往ODM的Nepean實驗室進行分析。樣品材料將經過徹底檢查，以確定含有指示黃金的礦物質和顆粒。識別出樣品中的金顆粒後，將進行數目計數，光學檢查，根據構形（原始形態與變形形態）進行分類，從而確定其離巖體原始來源的運輸距離。完成這些研究後，重礦物濃縮物將提交給獨立實驗室進行化驗。
