Yellow Fox Antimony Project Update
Yellow Fox Antimony Project Update
Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 12, 2025) -
Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV:
MEK) (FSE: M1C1) (the "Company" or Metals Creek)
is pleased to announce that the Company has
been advised by its option partner
Lomiko Metals Inc.
(Lomiko or TSX-V: LMR) of an update on the
Yellow Fox, antimony, silver, and gold property acquired from Metals Creek as per news release issued
on January 21
st
, 2025. (See MEK news release dated January 21 2025).
The Yellow Fox property is on the same trend as the past-producing Beaver Brook antimony mine, which
is located 25km southwest of the property. Yellow Fox is an early-stage exploration property prospective
in antimony, gold, and silver where historic works returned samples anomalous in gold (Au), antimony
(Sb), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), and silver (Ag). The trenching exposed the rocks, resulting in grab samples to
59.43g/t Au, 11.10% Sb, 7.00% Zn, 72.90g/t Ag, and 5.50% Pb in arsenopyrite-stibnite veins within
altered monzogranite. (See Metals Creek assessment report at
https://gis.geosurv.gov.nl.ca/geofilePDFS/Batch2016/002D_0779.pdf
).
Alexander (Sandy) Stares, President, CEO and a director of Metals Creek States, "We are pleased to
see Lomiko moving ahead and execute a plan to further evaluate the potential at the prospective Yellow
Fox property. This allows Metals Creek to remain focused on the Tillex Copper Project and the Ogden
Gold Project in Timmins Ontario while the Yellow Fox Project moves forward."
Gordana Slepcev, CEO, President, and Director of Lomiko, stated: "We are pleased to move forward
with the Phase 1 work program at the Yellow Fox property with a targeted soil sampling program to take
place in the spring. The plan is to complete 10 lines at 250 meters spacing and collect approximately
700 soil samples to better define existing highly prospective antimony and silver and gold targets as well
as further evaluate south of the Yellow Fox showing where little to no work has been performed
historically. We are happy to be working with Metals Creek, who will manage and complete the work
program for Lomiko."
Yellow Fox antimony and gold prospect Spring 2025 Work Program
Lomiko reviewed existing data and devised a plan for the fieldwork program in the spring of 2025.
Phase 1 of the plan in the spring is focused on soil sampling with the following highlights:
Soil sampling program targeted south of Yellow Fox, showing 59.413 g/t gold and areas of
increased density of interpreted structures, See Figure 1.
Approximately 700 soil samples on ten 250m spaced lines trending approximately 110 degrees
with samples taken every 25m along the line.
Should the soil sampling program be proven effective, expansion of the lines and additional lines
to the south are warranted, which would be the focus of the Phase 2 program.
Phase 2 will see the soil sampling completed on the 250-meter parallel grids at 25-meter spacing
covering the southern end of the property.
Phase 2 will also focus on ground truthing existing targets as well as following up on newly
generated targets
Depending on the results of the phase 1 testing, a targeted EM survey will be undertaken.
Please note that the results on an adjacent or nearby property (Beaver Brook) are not necessarily
what can be expected on the Yellow Fox project and that the results of surface or grab samples, by
their nature, this type of sample is selective and that the assay results may not be indicative of
underlying mineralization.
Location Details
The Yellow Fox Property is located approximately 10 km southwest of the Town of Glenwood NL, and
south of the Trans-Canada Highway.
The Property occurs within NTS map sheets 02D/14 and 15 with
excellent access along several logging and skidder roads originating from Glenwood.
The main Yellow
Fox showing is located in the central part of License 027536M, 5km from the western end of Gander
Lake.
The property is centered at approximately UTM (NAD 27) grid coordinates
5,419,400m North and
645,300m East.
Geologically, Yellow Fox exhibits similar traits to that of Beaver Brook with cross-cutting structural zones
which show intense carbonate alteration with sulphide-bearing stringers to veins of stibnite and
arsenopyrite with similar high-grade tenors of antimony, gold, lead, zinc, and silver. Arsenopyrite is also
present in both locations. Two prominent fracture vein sets are present, one being the muscovite-pyrite-
rutile veins trending 356 degrees and the second stibnite-quartz-arsenopyrite being the most abundant
and trending 025 degrees. Both these veins sets are similar to that of the past producing Beaver Brook
antimony Mine and with both vein sets trending in N to NE which is same as the prospective regional
structures.
