SAN JOSE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 10, 2022 / Guskin Gold Corp (OTCQB:GKIN) ("Guskin Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report on the 2022 Kukuom Gold Project work program.
As previously reported six (6) high-priority airborne geophysical anomalies were identified, the most promising, a 2,000 meter long anomaly directly overlain and correlating to the previously announced high-grade gold samples in the open pit (see Figure 1 below).
The Company's technical team is preparing group magnetic and VLF surveys to further identify the geophysical properties of the high-grade-gold bearing Veins 54 and 55 of the Kukuom open pit. Vein 54 and Vein 55 are exposed for approximately 50 meters in length in the open pit and correlate to a Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) boundary and relief indicative of a highly probable shear zone that runs over 2,000 meters in length.
Further, ground induced polarization (IP) will be also considered to further refine the targeting by identifying sulfidic and/or clay alteration zones in Target 1 and five (5) other targets that have been identified.
A summary of the extraction and exploration targets and mineralization models is summarized below.
Exploration Program
Highly prospective targets have been identified on the concession through field mapping and will be followed up with ground geophysics. A 17-hole drill program scheduled to proceed in Q2/Q3 of 2022 in the open pit area (Target 1) to establish strike continuity of the mineralized zone and down-dip extent. Further target generation, definition and confirmation by trenching, ground geophysics surveys (IP, Mag-VLF) and drill testing of targets generated. Drill-testing the same style of mineralization observed in Target 1 will be pursued elsewhere in the concession.
Mineralization Models
Quartz veining and stockwork systems in metavolcanic and metasedimentary host rocks; intense quartz veining/silicification associated with high-grade zones. Disseminated-style gold mineralization, associated with disseminated sulfides (mainly pyrite) development. Narrow shear-hosted low-moderate-grade gold mineralization associated with quartz veins/silicification and carbonate-sericite alteration zones/haloes hosted in metavolcanics and metasediments. Mineable auriferous placers along River terraces and valley flats and oxidized eluvial (saprolitic) material.
Extraction Targets
Primary targets include quartz veining and stockwork systems; disseminated-sulfides style; open-pit targets, especially the upper zones close to the surface, which are oxidized and therefore, largely non-refractory (oxide dump leach material and CIL); alluvial (placer) gold resource along the valleys flats and terraces of the Tano River and its tributaries.
Corporate Highlights
The Kukuom Gold Project is located in Asunafo South District, Ahafo Region, and is a Joint Venture Partnership with Danampco Company whereby Guskin Gold has an exclusive seventy (70%) percent ownership interest. The license area is 156 square kilometers and the property is highly prospective and is spatially related to major discoveries including Newmont's Ahafo 23Moz Gold Mine (approximately 30km north of the property), Kinross' Chirano 5Moz Gold Mine (approximately 40km south), the Asante Gold Corp 7Moz Bibiani Gold Mine (approximately 25km southeast).
