Balmoral Resources Ltd. announced that it has commenced its first exploration program on the HWY 810 property in Quebec. The wholly owned HWY 810 property was acquired by Balmoral through staking in 2016/2017. The property covers over 250 square kilometres and is centered 15 kilometres northeast of Hecla Mining’s multi-million ounce Casa Berardi gold mine and 35 kilometres south of Balmoral’s Martiniere gold property. Balmoral has commenced a minimum 120 line kilometre I.P. program targeting three areas of this district scale land package. The target areas were identified through a compilation of historic work and modeling as having potential for mesothermal gold mineralization using criteria derived from the Company’s knowledge of the numerous deposits and active gold mines in the region. The I.P. results will be incorporated into the selection of targets for initial drill testing. The HWY 810 property extends across three Archean geological domains and contains regionally extensive structural elements similar to those hosting significant gold deposits elsewhere in the Abitibi region. The northern part of the property is characterized by mixed mafic/felsic volcanic rocks and gabbroic intrusions, while the central and southern parts are characterized by mafic volcanic rocks with interbedded pyrite rich, graphitic sediments. This latter sequence is intruded, along a structural corridor, by a large intermediate pluton. The property includes, or surrounds, several known precious and base metal occurrences, as well as a regionally extensive iron formation sequence. In addition to gold, there may be potential for the discovery of Cu-Zn VMS mineralization on the property given its location between the former producing, 50+Mt Selbaie Cu-Zn-Ag-Au mine to the north and the Estrades gold-rich VMS system to the south. As the name indicates, the property enjoys excellent access, via an extensive logging road network connected to regional Hwy 810 which cuts north-south through the property. The Company currently uses Hwy 810 for access to its Martiniere and Grasset deposits.
