Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – August 11, 2022) – Stratabound Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SB) (OTCQB: SBMIF) (“Stratabound” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce its summer field exploration program has concluded and results are pending on its Golden Culvert and nearby new Win gold projects located in the southeast Yukon within 20 km of Seabridge Gold’s high-grade 3 Aces gold project. The Company is also pleased to report it has received the maximum $50,000 grant allowed under the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program (YMEP) towards funding the Golden Culvert 2022 program.
A 6-person field crew was deployed to ground check multiple new gold-in-soil anomalies derived from soil sampling programs discovered during the 2021 field season. Three significant new gold-in-soil anomalies yielding results continuously above 20 to 1,050 parts per billion (ppb) gold average over a kilometre in strike length and between 50 and 350 metres in width. The new anomalies demonstrate a strong periodicity occurring at approximate 2-km intervals along some 14 kilometres of strike north of, and including, the Golden Culvert Main Discovery Zone. Numerous additional smaller and discontinuous anomalies between 20 ppb and 190 ppb gold were also identified along a strike corridor of previously identified gold-mineralized trends.
Mr. R. Kim Tyler, President and CEO of the Company, stated, “We are investigating the 2021 gold-in-soil anomalies in detail on the ground and hope to discover mineralized bedrock sources and float trains that similarly characterize the Main Discovery area that has yielded diamond drill results of up to 2.53 g/t gold over 33.1m including 60.1 g/t gold over 0.9m, trench values up to 95.0 g/t gold over 1.5m, and surface float-train samples yielding up to 320 g/t gold within a 3-km by 250-m wide gold-in-soil anomaly.”
He added, “We are also very appreciative to receive the support and confidence of the Yukon Government and Geological Survey for providing us once again with funding assistance.”
