Troubadour Resources (TR) announced the company has finished the first phase of drilling at its Texas property.

The 2,186-hectare property is located near the town of Beaverdell in southern British Columbia.

The Vancouver-based mining exploration company completed 25 shallow holes totalling 2,090 metres of HQ size drill core.

The program was designed to test a number of newly identified geophysical and geochemical targets.

The drill program was also meant to identify geological controls and the potential source of bonanza-grade samples at the Doorn and Cabin targets and the bulk tonnage-grade andesite and altered granodiorite that host these veins.

All drill holes intersected altered granodiorite or andesite with varying degrees of mineralized veining and alteration halos.

The drill core is being processed by the geological team, and samples are being sent to the analytical lab on an ongoing basis.

“Due to the favourable late spring weather and the hard, efficient work of the entire team we were able to complete the planned drill program on time and on budget. We were successful in our stated goals, and we are eagerly awaiting assay results from this program,” said Troubadour Resources President Geoff Schellenberg.

The road-accessible Texas property covers historical mineral showings and is located 3 kilometres southwest of the town of Beaverdell and in close proximity to the past producing Beaverdell Mine that was in operation from 1896 to 1991.

Troubadour Resources is a mining exploration company focused on copper and gold in British Columbia.

Troubadour Resources is unchanged, trading at C$0.19 11:27 am ET.
