Cartier Iron Provides Update on Exploration for Low Sulphidation Gold-Silver Epithermal Mineralization at Big Easy, Newfoundland
Cartier Iron Corporation (CSE:CFE) (“Cartier Iron” or the “Company”) carried out a 17-hole diamond drill program totaling 9,470.6m in winter 2022 to test significant resistivity anomalies along a major north-northeast trending structural break outlined by the Controlled Source Audio Magneto-Telluric (“CSAMT”) survey in the Central Anomaly – Big Easy Showing Area (see Cartier Iron’s May 10, 2022 press release). Although assay results returned only geochemically anomalous values of silver, all the drill holes intersected wide sections of interbedded rhyolite and siltstone up to 150m thick in the lower part of the Musgravetown Group. Hydrothermal alteration is very extensive consisting primarily of silicification and phengite micas.
