Torq Defines 800-metre Mineralized System at the Margarita Project
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2022 / Torq Resources Inc. (TSX-V:TORQ)(OTCQX:TRBMF) ("Torq" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has defined a gold - copper mineralized system over an 800 metre (m) strike length at the Falla 13 discovery at its Margarita project located in northern Chile, approximately 65 kilometres (km) north of the city of Copiapo. Highlights from the recently completed reverse circulation (RC) drill program include: 64 m of 0.63 g/t gold (Au) and 0.63% copper (Cu) in 22MAR-017R, 130 m of 0.36 g/t Au and 0.28% Cu (including 30 m of 1.02 g/t Au and 0.57% Cu) in 22MAR-023R, and 62 m of 0.51 g/t Au and 0.38% Cu (including 16 m of 1.6 g/t Au and 0.98% Cu), in 22MAR-024R (Figure 1). Table 1 summarizes all exploration drill holes from the Falla 13 discovery area.
A Message from Shawn Wallace, CEO:
"The successful completion of the second drill program at Margarita marks an important milestone for the project and the Company. We have successfully added dimension and confirmed that the system we are exploring has the potential for continuity of size and grade. It is incredible that less than one year ago, Margarita was a prospect without a single drill hole. Now, as our team begins to plan the next phase of exploration at Margarita, we are also preparing for our inaugural drill program at our Santa Cecilia gold-copper project in the Maricunga belt, which we are also very excited about."
A Message from Michael Henrichsen, Chief Geological Officer:
"With our second phase of drilling complete at the Margarita project we have been able to delineate a mineralized body over an 800 m strike length in a short amount of time. Collectively, the different styles of mineralization encountered, and the two orientations of mineralized structures, demonstrate a robust system with significant potential to both expand the mineralization along the Falla 13 corridor and find new bodies of mineralization at untested, geologically similar targets. Over the next several months we will refine our targets through additional soil sampling with an emphasis on gold, additional induced polarization (IP) lines in the northern region of the project and continued geologic mapping. We look forward to outlining our third phase drill program for the project."
