CAVU Intersects Copper-Bearing Skarn at Hopper Copper-Gold Project and Updates on Current Drilling Program

20.07.2021  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, July 19, 2021 - CAVU Mining Corp. (CSE: CAVU) (FSE: 8NQ) ("CAVU" or the "Company"), reports that approximately 250 meters has been drilled in 3 holes on the Hopper Copper-Gold Project in Yukon prior to a temporary pause in drilling due to a posed safety risk to personnel from a forest fire in the area. The crew has been temporarily moved to Whitehorse, Yukon and the Company expects the drilling program to commence shortly after receiving clearance from the local authorities. The Hopper Property is in the traditional territory of the Champagne Aishihik First Nations.

Highlights:

  • 250 meters of diamond drilling has been completed
  • The EM anomaly that was targeted with hole 1 - 3 is associated with semi-massive sulphides
  • First skarn horizon was intersected from 57 to 66.8m in hole HOP21-DDH-01
  • The Franklin skarn in hole 1 is mineralized over 5.8m (<1% to 20% copper sulphides1)
  • The Franklin skarn in hole 1 contains up to 8% copper sulphides over approximately 2m from 63.5 - 65.5m

"We are nearing the completion of the first three holes in the Franklin skarn," stated Jaap Verbaas, CEO of CAVU. "On the evening of July 17, one of our crew spotted a forest fire in the vicinity of our camp. After we assessed the size and risk posed by the fire to our crew, the decision was made to move our personnel to Whitehorse. The fire has so far not affected CAVU's personnel, camp, or equipment. Neither CAVU personnel nor the Company's contractors were involved in starting the fire and the Company is working with local authorities to identify its source and origin. Drilling activities have been temporarily paused as we wait for approval and guidance from the Yukon Fire department to resume our drilling program safely. We are currently on standby and eager to get back to site."

The EM anomaly targeted with HOP-DDH21-01, 02 and 03 appears to be caused by massive magnetite-pyrrhotite-chalcopyrite skarn. The skarn is approximately 10m thick and contains local copper mineralization. This anomaly is largely undrilled and continues 500m to the south from hole HOP-DDH21-01.
