Bathurst Metals Corp add TED Claims to Turner Lake Project, Nunavut
Vancouver, British Columbia (February16, 2021) – Bathurst Metal Corp. (BMV ) (“Bathurst” or
the “Company”) is pleased to announce the acquisition of the TED Project by staking of the T4-6 mineral
claims covering 2,644 Ha. The company’s 100% owned property is adjacent to the company’s 100%
owned Turner Lake Project. These Projects are located approximately 60 kilometers north-northwest of
the community of Bathurst Inlet in the Kitikmeot District of western Nunavut, Canada.
Hardy Forzley, President and CEO of Bathurst Metals stated “The newly staked TED Project is exciting
to us as it has several untested zones of high-grade gold mineralization that were highly ranked by
previous Echo Bay geologists, known to be successful in the exploration of gold bearing iron formations.
The project is also adjacent to our 100% owned, Turner Lake Project which is known to contain
significant gold concentrations along a Fe/Mg Tholeiite contact with visible gold noted in almost every
diamond drill hole crossing the structure. The quality of these projects and their close proximity to each
other significantly increases the potential of Bathurst Metals.”
TED Gold Bearing Iron Formation Project – Nunavut
The TED Project covers an eight kilometre strike length of iron formations contained within upper
greenschist to lower amphibolite facies, Archean Age Yellowknife Supergroup metasediments. The last
known systematic exploration on the iron formations occurred in 1984-1985 by Echo Bay Mines in which
they discovered gold mineralization in chert rich iron formations which contains gold bearing sulphide
mineralization in the form of pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite and pyrite. Four zones of gold mineralization were
located, one zone known as the B15 gold occurrence recorded a chip sample returning a value of 31.24
grams/ton gold over 1.4 meters and included a separate grab sample of the iron formation containing
139.18 grams/ton gold. The iron formation has not been drill tested as recommended by Echo Bay
geologists.
