White Cliff Minerals Limited announces further mineralisation discoveries

White Cliff Minerals Limited (ASX: $WCN) has reported the discovery of widespread IOCG-U polymetallic mineralisation at the Great Bear Lake U-Cu-Au-Ag Project in northern Canada. The company has also commenced works at the Nunavut Cu-Ag-Au Project. The maiden fieldwork program at the Great Bear Lake Project has identified 4 large IOCG hydrothermal systems, with prospects visibly mineralised with chalcopyrite +/- bornite and associated copper secondary minerals. Additionally, a newly discovered 'Cleaver' project, indicating a large and fertile IOCG system, has been identified. The company's subcontractor, Expert Geophysics, has completed the MobileMT airborne geophysical program at Great Bear Lake and has now mobilised to commence work at the Nunavut Cu-Ag-Au Project. Assay results from the sampling program are expected in the coming weeks.

Executive commentary on the recent discoveries

The Managing Director, Troy Whittaker, expressed excitement about the discoveries, stating, 'The IOCG potential of this project continues to grow. We continue to discover targets that represent newly identified, spatially separate mineralised systems, indicating the opportunity for multiple discoveries. The completion of the MobileMT survey delivers another significant milestone for stakeholders. The data returned from this detailed survey is expected to work well given the outcropping mineralisation fresh rock and lack of overburden. We will integrate this information into our planning and in conjunction with the field observations and having a clear understanding of the topography and local onsite conditions, we will have a complete and detailed understanding in readiness for our upcoming drilling campaign and various site visits that are planned. Works will shortly commence in Nunavut where we are targeting high-grade, volcanic hosted copper-silver lodes which are prospective for high grade vein fill and bulk tonne sedimentary hosted copper deposits.'
