Black Tusk Resources (TUSK) has summarized results from geophysical surveying on the MoGold property north of Val d’Or, Quebec.

On the MoGold property, TMC Geophysique completed deep-penetrating Pulse-EM (Time Domain Electromagnetic or TDEM) surveying designed to test a four square kilometre area to cover zones targeted through geologic assessment and rock sampling.

Rock samples returned significant values of copper, silver, and zinc.

The geology along the trend is interpreted to have the potential for Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) mineralization.

The zone of interest also displays magnetic features derived from the Black Tusk 2021 surveys.

TMC Geophysique is currently compiling the EM survey data and expects to soon provide maps and results.

The TMC report of findings from the TDEM survey identifies six localized anomalies roughly grouped around the Boily-Bérubé mineral occurrence. This is also where Black Tusk exploration obtained rock samples that returned elevated values for silver, copper, and zinc.

The TDEM were modelled as relatively shallow-seated bodies/targets. Historic drilling is shown to be near some of these anomalies and is documented in reports.

TMC Geophysique has just completed a second Pulse EM survey over Black Tusk’s PG Highway claims, where massive pyrite and pyrrhotite have been mapped at surface.

The sulphide mineralization was discovered during the 2021 Black Tusk geologic reconnaissance. The strength of sulphide mineralization and the general geology suggests the potential for hosting VMS deposition.

The results from this TDEM survey are expected to be available in the following week.

Black Tusk is preparing to test the best target areas on the MoGold and PG Highway properties by diamond drilling. The drilling could commence once TMC has reported the EM survey results and the Black Tusk geologic team has evaluated all the exploration work to date to determine priority locations and targets.

Black Tusk Resources is a gold-focused exploration company with operations primarily based in the Abitibi greenstone belt region of Val d’Or, Quebec. The company’s projects include the McKenzie East Gold Property, Golden Valley Project, PG Highway Project and the Lorraine Project, the MoGold Property, and the South Rim Gold Property

Black Tusk Resources Inc. (TUSK) is up 33.33 per cent on the day, trading at C$0.20 per share as of 1:38 pm EDT.
