Golden Pursuit Announces Receipt of NI 43- 101 Report on Gordon Lake Project, NWT
Golden Pursuit Announces Receipt of NI 43-
101 Report on Gordon Lake Project, NWT
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 23, 2021) - Golden Pursuit Resources Ltd. (TSXV:
GDP) (the "
Company
") has filed on the company's website (
www.goldpursuit.ca
) a Canadian National
instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) Technical Report for the South Gordon Lake property, located in the
Northwest Territories, Canada. The author of the report is Gary Vivian, M.Sc., P.Geol. and Chairman of
Aurora Geosciences Ltd.
The property comprises eight historical occurrences of high-grade gold in quartz veins and mineralized
quartz breccia zones. The current mineral tenure has two historical mining leases, fourteen territorial and
thirteen federal claims. The South Gordon Lake property (SGLP) lies 80 kilometres north-northeast of
Yellowknife with GDP owning 100% of these properties with a 1% NSR owed only on the 2 mineral
leases that were optioned in 1996. The total land package is presently 5,909.87 hectares.
There are eight occurrences covered under the current property ownership, of which five would be
considered historical minor producers. The five minor producers are Burnt Island, Camlaren, DAF, Myrt
Lake and Kidney Pond. Kidney Pond has a well documented history through the 1980's when the most
significant amount of work was completed. There have been seven types of quartz veins and five types of
quartz-breccia zones identified at the South Gordon Lake property. These occurrences and the historical
information will be used to design an exploration program to evaluate the potential for mineralization in
Archean turbidite stratigraphy. Turbidite hosted deposits have gained much attention recently from
developments by Newfound Gold's Queensway Project and Kirkland Lake's Fosterville Mine in Australia
which are turbidite hosted mineralization which may well be analogous to Gordon Lake.
Much work has been completed on the SGLP with advanced underground operations occurring on many
of the properties which are described in detail in this submitted report. The initial discoveries of high-
grade gold veins in the South Gordon Lake area were based upon the discovery of gold in the
Yellowknife area. Prospectors continued to work their way northward from Yellowknife along the
Cameron River traversing their way to the Gordon Lake area. There are a number of prominent quartz
veins in the Gordon Lake area. Clearly, the original discoveries were visual and relied upon identifying
visible gold in surface expressions. Very intense work over the original 7-year period (1937 -1944)
delineated many high-grade gold occurrences but with great variability in size and grade. These gold
veins were all contained within a monotonous sequence of turbidites. Where folding occurred, the quartz
veins were usually much thicker and became the main targets for trenching and drilling. Exploration was
led by the identification of visible gold. Commodity price was a major contributing factor to tracing these
systems at depth. Simply put, grades of 1 ounce per ton of gold were the expectation. Remoteness and
capacity to deliver high-grade gold was the driver.
It became apparent in the 1950's, and much more so into the 1980's, that bedding-parallel shearing in
the host rocks due to constant deformation through folding produced the quartz-breccia zones that
hosted significant gold mineralization. The quartz-breccia zones at Kidney Pond have been extensively
studied and recognized that they occur primarily in black siltstone units. These black siltstone units
contain carbonaceous material that are likely a reactant for dropping gold out of solution. At Kidney
Pond, the quartz breccia zones can be up to 10 metres across in true thickness and grades can be up to
4 grams per tonne gold.
This genetic model has not been extensively explored for in the South Gordon Lake area. Gordon Lake
is a large lake (41 km X 3.5 Km) with abundant areas of forest, swamp and overburden cover
surrounding the lake. The Company recognizes the need to develop geological and geophysical tools to
discover this type of genetic model under cover. Aurora Geosciences Ltd. of Yellowknife, NT, has been
contracted to evaluate the historical work and develop an exploration program to systematically evaluate
the potential for economic mineralization at the SGLP. This exploration program will be initiated during
the summer of 2021.
