A total of 16 RC holes were completed for 2,079 meters with four areas being tested.
First Pass Drilling over Monza (80% TMX) has successfully extended the strike of gold mineralisation by a further 400 meters to define 700 meters of mineralised strike extent within Tenement P59/2128. New Area:
The board is pleased to confirm that the program was executed safely and professionally. In addition, logging confirms that the programs design and targeting assumptions look to be correct which confirms Terrain's strategy of identifying targets by using technical based staged exploration techniques. Terrain's geological team has used extensive mapping and ground-based geophysics as part of this process at Smokebush.
Potential Follow-up Works Program
The last phase of exploration drill program has defined exciting new zones of gold mineralisation over a broad spatial area at Monza,
Geological Interpretation at Monza
Mineralisation at Monza occurs in variably altered (silica +/- sericite +/- muscovite +/- biotite +/- chlorite), weakly sheared dolerite proximal to felsic porphyry and pegmatite intrusives. The higher grade (> 0.5 g/t) intercepts occur where alteration is most intense and sulphide (pyrite +/- pyrrhotite +/- arsenopyrite +/- chalcopyrite +/- stibnite) mineralisation is strong (generally + 10%). These zones commonly occur within broader zones with weaker alteration, sulphide mineralisation and lower grades. The anomalous grade zones (>0.1 g/t) indicate potential for larger scale controls within the Monza mineralisation system.
