Transatlantic Mining Corp. (TRRGF) reports exploration developments for a North American precious- and base-metals portfolio centered on Montana and Idaho. Company updates focus on the Miller Mine and Golden Jubilee gold projects in Montana and the Monitor copper-gold project spanning the Montana-Idaho district.
Recurring news themes include drilling and underground access permits, assay and sampling results, NI 43-101 technical reporting, geophysical surveys, dewatering plans, and exploration targeting. Monitor updates also reference copper siderite vein systems, the Anvil prospect, and muon imaging work used to map density anomalies associated with copper mineralization.
Transatlantic Mining Corp. (TSXV: TCO) has reported significant exploration results from its Monitor Copper-Gold Project near Taft, Idaho. The company's surface sampling at the Big Elk prospect revealed exceptional high-grade copper mineralization, with one outcrop sample returning 36.1% Cu over 2.6 metres and another gossanous sample yielding 6.6% Cu.
The company completed 14 drill holes totaling 1,100 metres at Big Elk, with ten holes intersecting historical mining voids. While no new vein material was encountered, the drilling successfully confirmed the geometry of the mineralized structures. The mineralization occurs in steeply dipping fissure veins within a prominent shear zone, trending N40W to N70W, characteristic of the Coeur d'Alene mining district.
The company is currently integrating new magnetic survey results and Lidar data into an updated NI 43-101 report for the Monitor Project to guide future exploration efforts.
Transatlantic Mining Corp. (TSXV: TCO) has announced the commencement of resource definition drilling at its Miller Gold Mine project near Helena, Montana. The company has received drilling permits and plans to drill up to 3,000 meters this spring, targeting untested deeper zones with over 100 metres of strike and depth on the principal vein structure.
The Miller Gold Mine, located in Broadwater County, has a significant historical production record with an average recovered grade of 7.94 Oz/ton Au (248 g/t Au) and 4.65 Oz/ton Ag (145 g/t Ag). A historical drill hole below the lowest workings recorded 14.7 Oz/ton Au (516 g/t Au). The mineralization occurs in quartz veins within a quartz diorite stockwork, with discrete veins dipping 30 to 50 degrees. Recent grab samples from the Lower Winze Level yielded 27.6 g/t Au, with visible gold observed.
