Central Timmins Exploration Corp. Continues its Initial Drill Program

Most of the mines in Timmins have been found by prospectors sampling outcrop. The remaining prospective areas are covered by an average of 25 meters of lake bottom clays, sand or glacial till plus infrastructure such as roads, houses, powerlines. CTEC has a modern data base of 6,000 MMI geochemical samples, and they along with extensive geophysical data have helped identify areas that are prospective for gold or copper-zinc mineralization.
When the MMI anomalies are overlain on the airborne geophysical maps of the individual townships, they highlight a range of airborne magnetic and/or EM anomalies that have never been drill tested. In total, CTEC has identified over 25 drill targets. The next 3 targets to be drilled are:
Prospect Area\Township
Prospective For
Target Description
Deloro Township
Gold
An MMI anomaly on a magnetic low plus IP chargeability and resistivity anomaly. A 500m drill hole was collared on February 11th and should take less than one week to drill.
4 Corners Prospect in Jamieson Township
Base Metals
Anomaly based on MMI, a magnetic low, gravity high and proximity to high-grade lead zinc, silver veins.
Mountjoy Township
Gold
2 miles west of the Hollinger mine; the drill target is based on MMI sampling plus a 1980 Noranda diamond drill hole that intersected 15m of quartz veining 200m to the east.
Charles Gryba, President, CEO and Director of CTEC stated "We are just starting our drill testing of gold and base metal targets in the Timmins Camp. Given that many recent discoveries have been on brownfield sites in old camps, we are excited by our prospects. Our MMI programs have identified many interesting targets and CTEC hopes to drill test at least 15 of these targets in 2019 with both winter and summer drill programs envisioned."
