Strikepoint Gold Commences Drilling on the Mahtin
Property, Mayo, Yukon Territory
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA --(Marketwired - June 12, 2017) - StrikePoint Gold Inc.
(TSX VENTURE:SKP)(OTCQB:STKXF) is pleased to announce that drilling has started on the
Mahtin Project, located approximately 40km northwest of the town of Mayo in the central Yukon
Territory.
Drilling is currently underway at the Mahtin North target, an area of copper -gold skarn
mineralization. A total of eight holes are planned along a on e kilometer line to test the extent of
mineralization at depth.
In addition to drilling, the field crew is continuing to map along the Sprague Creek Stock contact
to collect sulphide- bearing rock samples for assay from previously untested areas, covering a
strike of 3.5km on a bearing of 070 degrees. Results of this work are pending.
Mapping and sampling focus will shortly switch to the May -Qu target on the south of the Mahtin
property to prepare the area for the second phase of exploratory drilling in the coming weeks.
Mahtin Property
The Mahtin Property is synonymous in geological setting and mineralization style as Victoria
Gold's Eagle Gold Project, 40km away to the northeast. Mineralization has been identified in
association with two intrusive stocks: Sprague Creek (3.6 x 1.5km) and Bos Stocks (4 x 1.1km). It
is generally understood that the best mineralization in the Mayo area occurs along a '070' degree
trend along the northern contacts of Cretaceous -aged granodiorite intrusions, diagnostic quali ties
that are observed in both Mahtin stocks.
Historic exploration on site included the collection of 18,406 soil samples across the entire
property, airborne geophysical surveys, mapping and sampling.
