Scottie Adds Additional Drill ON the Scottie GOLD Project and Provides Exploration Update
SCOTTIE ADDS ADDITIONAL DRILL ON THE SCOTTIE GOLD PROJECT
AND PROVIDES EXPLORATION UPDATE
Vancouver, BC – July 22, 2021 – Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie” or the “Company”) (TSX V:
SCOT) is pleased to announce th e addition of a second drill rig on its 100% owned Scottie Gold
Project. The second rig has commenced drilling on the Domino zone, located 2 km due west of the
high-grade past-producing Scottie Gold mine. The company has already completed 1800 metres (m)
of drilling at the Blueberry zone and continues to expand and test the Blueberry target.
CEO and President , Bradley Rourke commented : “The addition of a second rig will
accelerate the efforts and allow us additional flexibility within our aggressive 2021 field
program. We are excited to continue the testing of the Domino zone and expand on last
year’s encouraging drill results.”
Scottie Gold Mine Project
The Scottie Gold Mine, which operated between 1981 to 1985, produced 95,426 gold ounces from
183,147 tonnes at an average recovered grade of 16.2 g/t gold. The mine ultimately shut down due
to a drop in gold price combined with high- interest rates. Mineralization consists of east -west to
northwest trending, steeply dipping, shear veins, that are comprised of pyrrhotite > pyrite ± quartz ±
calcite. The veins are hosted in a package of andesitic volcanic rocks from the Hazelton Unuk River
Formation that are situated adjacent to the cont act with the Summit Lake stock, part of the Texas
Creek Plutonic Suite. While 13 distinct gold-bearing vein zones have been identified on the Scottie
Gold Mine Project, mine production was primarily from one vein (the M-zone).
Historical drilling of the Sc ottie Gold Mine was largely focused on mine production, with little work
done on proving up substantial resources. The majority of historical drilling was done from
underground, and therefore consisted of short holes with single targets – with very restricted drill pad
locations. Recent exploration by Scottie has used the benefits of drilling from surface to target areas
that were inaccessible with underground drill locations, and where possible to test multiple targets
with individual holes.
