50 DECEMBER 2023 WorldWide Drilling Resource® See us at Groundwater Week ~ Booth 309 Update on Mining Project in Quebec Adapted from Information by Gama Explorations Inc. Gama Explorations Inc. provided an update on its Tyee Nickel Copper Cobalt Project located north of Havre-Saint-Pierre in Quebec, Canada. A five-man crew has been testing geophysical anomalies and validating potential drilling targets using ground geophysical tools to locate conductive rocks prior to sampling. The St. Laurent Target is associated with a cliff containing sulphides and can be followed over an 1100-foot strike length. The sulphides are likely a mix of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, and possibly pentlandite. XRF (X-ray fluorescent) analysis confirmed the presence of copper and nickel. This is the highest priority drill target of the program so far. The Little St. Catherine Target consists of several smaller conductors around a faulted segment of the Big St. Catherine Target. Several outcrops were uncovered, some containing nickel and copper. This is the second highest priority drill target. The Big St. Catherines Target is mostly under overburden too deep to access by conventional prospecting means, and the most conductive area of the target could not be assessed. Where the main anomaly could be tested, it yielded rocks containing mostly magnetite and ilmenite, consisting of iron oxide and titanium oxide. Since the geophysical anomaly representing this target is so large and titanium is actively mined from the Havre-Saint-Pierre complex by Rio Tinto, Gama will continue to explore this area in future programs. The St. Denis East Target is also mostly under overburden, but Beep Mat prospecting revealed several sites with massive magnetite, ilmenite, and sulphides, and XRF analysis confirmed the presence of copper. In the St. Denis West Target, only three samples could be collected due to the outcrop and slightly thicker overburden. These samples were similar to those of the St. Denis East Target, consisting mostly of magnetite, ilmenite, and sulphides. Copper was also confirmed there. Similar to the St. Denis Targets, the Crescent Target is mostly massive magnetite and ilmenite at surface with up to 20% pyrrhotite. XRF analysis did not confirm the presence of copper or nickel; however, the target thickens and it is possible sulphides are present at depth. An application for drilling has been made, with one drill pad at each of the above targets. Another 20 targets remain to be validated from the airborne geophysical survey flown in the early summer. Gama expects more targets will be generated from further airborne surveys. Outcrop at the St. Laurent target, a newly discovered sulphide showing with XRF-confirmed presence of nickel and copper. EXB
