CAT Strategic Metals Completes Mapping and Sampling and Drone Mag Survey at Rimrock Gold-Silver Property, Midas-Hollister Camp, Elko County, Nevada

23.06.2021 | 8:00 Uhr | Accesswire

VANCOUVER, June 23, 2021 - CAT Strategic Metals Corp. (CSE:CAT)(OTC PINK:CATTF)(FRA:8CH) ("CAT" or the 'Company') announces the following update on its Rimrock Gold-Silver mineral property in Midas and Hollister Mines area of Elko County, Nevada.

RIMROCK Gold-Silver Property

The Rimrock Property is situated 15 Km southeast of Hecla Mining's high-grade Midas gold-silver mine, and 3 km north of its Hollister gold-silver mine. Hecla's new high-grade Green Racer gold-silver discovery lies 13 km NW of Rimrock.

Drone Aeromagnetic Survey Completed. A first-ever drone aeromagnetic survey was conducted by Zonge Geophysics of Reno, Nevada for CAT Strategic Metals. Zonge used a Drone platform to do the new survey, using 50-metre space flight lines, and coordinated using GPS servers. These data augmented ground magnetics conducted by Kent Exploration in 2004. The data package is being interpreted for CAT by Bolin Geophysical Surveys LLC. CAT has scheduled a dipole-dipole induced polarization survey by Zonge to be conducted in the next quarter to better define exploration targets at depth at Rimrock.

Mapping Uncovers 3 New Gold-Silver Drilling Targets. New geologic mapping and rock-chip sampling was conducted by CAT's geologist at Rimrock. This led to the discovery of 3 new gold-silver drilling targets, in addition to the "Silver Hill" and Rhombochasm" targets. CAT now has 5 exciting drilling targets to pursue in coming months.

1. Dilation (Western Mineralized) Zone is a large, old, 3 Km long NNE-trending, locally mineralized fault system that occurs in the northern part of the Rimrock property. Midas-Hollister-style low-sulfidation gold-silver targets are present along the zone. Structurally-controlled mercury-bearing mineralization is present in and near the IC Fault, which is believed to also be a pre-Carlin age structure that was reactivated and host to different events of mineralization. A large fault jog is present; here termed the "Rhombochasm" zone. This is over 200 meters wide and 1 km long, forming a major structural target for gold-silver mineralization. The northern area had been previously mapped in detail, the emphasis during this mapping program was to extend the zone to the southwest.

Silicification was found to extend another 400 meters to the southwest from the end of the previous mapping becoming gradually weaker and replaced by QSP mineralization and eventually aerially extensive argillic alteration. Reconnaissance mapping further southwest determined little true exposures exist in the area of interest. However, drilling in 2007 did identify elevated gold mineralization (to 187 ppb) hosted by volcanic tuff, exists within this zone. Multi-elemental analyses indicate the gold interval is also elevated with respect to sulfur, selenium, arsenic, antimony, tungsten and molybdenum. To a lesser degree barium and rhenium are elevated. These results are indicative of Midas Style precious metals mineralization is extant in this area.

Holes drilled further to the west in this area also intersected Paleozoic sedimentary rocks (quartzites and mudstones) below the volcanics. The uppermost interval, immediately below the volcanic section, of this formation is composed of quartzite. It is elevated in silver and gold (to 29.5 ppm and 85 ppb respectively) which is associated with elevated tellurium, selenium, antimony and vanadium; and to a lesser consistency molybdenum, chromium, copper and arsenic. The Dilation Zone is large enough to host a good-size, high-grade gold-silver deposit for the Company.

2. Eastern Zone is 100 to 250 metres wide in a north-south oriented area of chalcedonic alteration, is accompanied by quartz-sericite-pyrite (oxidized) and argillic alteration of mostly volcanic tuff and tuffaceous lithologies. The widest portions of significant alteration are found at the south end in the vicinity of Silver Hill, an area underlain by high grade silver mineralization (to 262 ppm) intersected in the 2007 drill program, and again to the north where it eventually intersects and alters a large area of the basal units of the 14.92 Ma Rhyolite Porphyry. In terms of exposed area, the Eastern Alteration Zone is significantly larger than the Western or Dilation Alteration Zone. The overall length of the exposed, discontinuous silicic mineralization is 1.5 km; it continues at least another 750 meters into the Rhyolite Porphyry where it is expressed principally as QSP alteration.

Alteration is typically a silica core surrounded by less silicified areas enriched in iron (now oxidized) mineralization and associated sericite (QSP alteration). This, in turn, is surrounded by argillic alteration. Silicification is discontinuous and defined by three distinct areas, from south to north, Silver Hill, Central and Northern Zones; each is roughly 200 to 300 meters in overall length.

Chalcedonic alteration is often associated with mercury mineralization (cinnabar, calomel, schuetteite and possibly others). Many areas show signs of prospecting. One area showed grey chalcedony containing meta-cinnabar forming a thin coating over rich cinnabar immediately below the exposed surface. Structures associated with the chalcedonic alteration are most frequently oriented at 020o (TN) and dip steeply west. Brecciation is often associated with cross-cutting structures which are occasionally accompanied by iron mineralization that has been demonstrated, through previous surface sampling, to contain elevated iron, mercury, arsenic and barium (± tungsten, molybdenum, nickel, bismuth, vanadium, selenium and lead); silver is also weakly elevated. This area has never been tested by drilling and looks quite prospective.

3. Shaft Zone Mineralization. The "Shaft Zone" has a 19 metre deep shaft developed in mercury-mineralized silicification and is host to a widespread area of mixed silicification, QSP and argillic alteration. It starts roughly 600 meters east of the "eastern Mineralized Zone" and continues at least 670 meters to the southeast of the shaft. Mineralization here is discontinues and mostly covered by cobble and boulder colluvium derived from the Rhyolite Porphyry. Silicification is principally chalcedonic replacement of tuff units, often associated with a halo of QSP and argillic alteration. Mineralization with the chalcedony replacement is principally goethite with lesser hematite, and meta-cinnabar and cinnabar at the collar of the shaft. The primary structural trend in this region is 020o which hosts the majority of the silicification and associated brecciation. Alteration within the lower units of the Rhyolite Porphyry is pronounced above and east of the shaft.

Conclusions. Five prospective target areas of mineralization are present in the Rimrock claims area. There may be gold-silver systems of 3 different ages present, and none have been tested properly by previous drilling to evaluate them. Strong alteration is present in several areas, often along with chalcedonic and mercury mineralization at the surface. This indicates that the gold targets lie at depth below the ground surface, and thus likely are underground mine targets. The Western and Eastern zones have drill data from the 2007 drilling program. This program identified Paleozoic rocks beneath the volcanic pile and are mineralized, to varying degrees with precious metals, which appear to have been mineralized both by Midas-Hollister age fluids, as well as locally by Carlin-type mineralizing fluids of Eocene age, as at Silver Hill. The Rimrock project area appears to be highly prospective for the discovery of gold-silver deposits that could be attractive to 3rd-party companies for acquisition.

Mr. Richard R. Redfern, M.S., C.P.G. No. 10717, is the qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 who has examined the property on the ground, and who reviewed the geological information available from public sources related to the property, and is responsible for approving the technical contents of this press release.

Flow-Through Financing Final Closing
