T2 Metals Corp.: Completes Successful Winter Core Drilling Program at Sherridon Copper-Gold Project
Vancouver, British Columbia – T2 Metals Corp. (TSXV: TWO) (OTCQB: TWOSF) (WKN: A2DR6E) is thrilled to report the successful completion of the winter core drilling program at its flagship Sherridon copper-gold project, located in the Flin Flon-Snow Lake District of west-central Manitoba (Figure 1). A total of 1,120 metres were drilled across four holes, with the use of frozen ground techniques to facilitate access and minimize environmental impact.
Drilling Highlights
The winter core drilling program targeted areas of the Sherridon property that showed potential for significant copper-gold mineralization, based on previous exploration results. The drilling program was a resounding success, with several notable intersections:
- DR-25-01: Intersected 12.2 metres of 0.32% copper and 0.11 g/t gold, starting at a depth of 645.5 metres.
- DR-25-02: Intersected 11.7 metres of 0.31% copper and 0.12 g/t gold, starting at a depth of 586.5 metres.
- DR-25-03: Intersected 15.2 metres of 0.27% copper and 0.14 g/t gold, starting at a depth of 613.8 metres.
- DR-25-04: Intersected 12.1 metres of 0.29% copper and 0.11 g/t gold, starting at a depth of 624.8 metres.
Significance for T2 Metals and the Mining Industry
The successful completion of the winter core drilling program at the Sherridon project is a significant milestone for T2 Metals. The program not only adds valuable data to the Company’s geological model but also demonstrates the potential for year-round drilling in Manitoba’s Flin Flon-Snow Lake District. This could lead to increased exploration activities and the discovery of new mineral deposits in the area.
Impact on Communities and the Environment
The use of frozen ground techniques during the winter core drilling program significantly reduced the environmental impact of the drilling activities. This approach allowed T2 Metals to minimize the disturbance of the land and waterways, ensuring that the local ecosystem remains undamaged. The Company remains committed to sustainable exploration practices and will continue to explore ways to minimize its environmental footprint.
Global Implications
The successful implementation of winter core drilling programs in colder climates has the potential to revolutionize the mining industry. By drilling during the winter months, companies can save time and resources, as they avoid the need for extensive site preparation and melting of permafrost. This could lead to increased exploration activities, the discovery of new mineral deposits, and economic growth in regions with harsh climates.
Conclusion
T2 Metals Corp.’s successful completion of the winter core drilling program at the Sherridon copper-gold project marks a significant step forward for the Company and the mining industry as a whole. The program not only adds valuable data to the Company’s geological model but also demonstrates the potential for year-round drilling in Manitoba’s Flin Flon-Snow Lake District. The use of frozen ground techniques during the drilling process significantly reduced the environmental impact, ensuring that the local ecosystem remains undamaged. The successful implementation of winter core drilling programs in colder climates could lead to increased exploration activities, the discovery of new mineral deposits, and economic growth in regions with harsh climates.
As a responsible corporate citizen, T2 Metals remains committed to sustainable exploration practices and will continue to explore ways to minimize its environmental footprint. The Company looks forward to sharing further results from the winter core drilling program and the ongoing exploration activities at the Sherridon project.
