SILVER RANGE STAKES ATLANTIS PROPERTY NEAR MEADOWBANK MINE
February 7, 2019 – Vancouver, BC – Silver Range Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:SNG) (“S ilver
Range”) has received prospecting permits covering a large gold target near the Meadowbank
Mine in Nunavut.
The Atlantis Project consists of two prospecting permits covering 31,778 hectares on the east
half of NTS Sheet 66H14. The property covers 21 square kilometres of highly prospective
Archean mafic volcanic rocks which were first identified on Geological Survey of Canada maps
published in 2002 . The property is 5 5 km north-northwest of Agnico Eagle’s Amaruq Deposit,
currently being prepared for production. Amaruq in turn is 54 km north -northwest of the Third
Portage and Vault Deposits.
The Meadowbank and Vault Deposits at the Meadowbank Mine are hosted in a mixed succession
of Archean metavolcanics and metasedimentary rocks whereas the Amaruq Deposit is hosted in
Archean mafic and ultramafic rocks. For the complex as a whole, Agnico Eagle declared Proven
and Probable Reserves as of December 31, 2017 of 24.771 Mt @ 3.40 g/t Au i. In the early
1990’s, Comaplex Resources Ltd. discovered by prospecting the showings which became the
Meadowbank, Vault and Amaruq Deposits. The volcanic outlier covered by the Atlantis Project
was unknown at that time, appearing on a geological map in 2002 (Geological Survey of Canada
Open File 4236). Nunavut Mining Recorder records show that the Atlantis Project area was on
the eastern edge of a large block of prospecting permits granted to Uranium North from 2011 to
2013; no exploration appears to have been conducted in the immediate project area . Silver
Range considers the Atlantis Project to be highly prospective to host economic gold
mineralization given the proximity of the project to the Meadowbank Mine Complex and the fact
that the target is underlain by the same rock types hosting the Amaruq Deposit.
Silver Range intends to conduct preliminary prospecting, mapping and sampling at Atlantis
during the coming summer exploration season.
