Sable Provides Exploration and Operational Update

04.05.2022  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, May 4, 2022 - Sable Resources Ltd. ("Sable" or the "Company") (TSXV:SAE) (OTCQB:SBLRF) is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing exploration program in San Juan, Argentina. The Company is currently undertaking 18,000 to 20,000 metres of drilling on seven targets at four of its projects - Don Julio, El Fierro, La Poncha and Los Pumas. The Company's current drill program has proven the extension of the mineralization of the La Verde Vein at El Fierro (see January 11 and February 15, 2022 press releases) and has intercepted porphyry style mineralization in five porphyry targets undergoing their first drill test. As of the date of this press release, no analytical results are available for reporting from the drill holes drilled at the porphyry targets.

"Our 2021 / 2022 exploration season has built on our early exploration activities that identified high quality drilling targets. Being well financed and our agreement with South32 has allowed us to advance quickly and aggressively on these highly prospective properties. I am very proud of our team that has advanced close to 20,000 metres of drilling on seven targets," stated Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable, who added, "With more than 110 people working on this exploration program, we are pleased to report that we have had zero lost time incidents and have strengthened our relationships with local communities. We are looking forward to receiving all the analytical results to initiate a detailed relogging of core and the interpretation of all new data to provide further updates and plan our next drill season."

Projects Highlights

Don Julio Project: Sable commenced its 5,000m drilling campaign in January 2022 focused on three Miocene porphyry targets (Poposa, La Gringa and Punta Cana). To date, 3,069m has been drilled in eight holes and 1,693 core samples have been submitted for assay. Holes 1 to 3 were drilled at the Poposa target and all holes show strong indications of transition between advanced argillic alteration to porphyry environment. Holes 4 and 5 targeted a diatreme system in the northern part of Punta Cana, while holes 6 and 8 were drilled at the Punta Cana porphyry encountering different phases of diorite with significant mineralization including Maricunga, A type, and B type veinlets, as well as disseminated pyrite and chalcopyrite. Hole 7 is being drilled at the Gringa porphyry target and has shown a clear transition from lithocap to porphyry environment. Currently two rigs are working at the Don Julio Project and the drilling campaign is expected to finish around mid May. All work at the Don Julio Project is fully funded by South32 under the terms of the Earn-In agreement signed in early 2021 (see press release dated March 11, 2021).

El Fierro Project: Sable started drilling at the El Fierro Project in October 2021 focusing on the different zones of sub-epithermal veins including Fierro Bajo, La Verde and Lagunitas. In early 2022, the Company started drilling the Pyros Cu-Au-Mo porphyry target which is a new Greenfields discovery within El Fierro Project. To date, Sable has drilled 10,923m in 63 holes, collecting 4,427 core samples having received so far results from 1,559 of those samples. High-grade intercepts from La Verde zone were released on January 11th and February 15th with more results to be released soon. In addition to the drilling, the Company completed 400km of Ground Magnetics; 26km of Induced Polarization, collected 317 rock samples and 2,500 soil samples. Mapping and prospecting has also led to the discovery of the Antena Au-Cu target which will be also drill tested at the end of the current drilling campaign.

Poncha North Project: Drilling started in March at the Miocene porphyry centre located in the Poncha North zone, part of the La Poncha Project. The location of drill holes was based on extensive trenching work, mapping and geophysics. 481 rock samples were collected along the trenches, significantly extending the size of the known porphyry mineralization. So far, the Company has completed 1,425m in four holes with 550 core samples having been sent to the laboratory with all results pending. Two more holes will be completed before the end of the season.

Los Pumas: During this exploration season in Argentina, from September to November, Sable conducted a short exploration program at Los Pumas including construction of a temporary camp, 25km of road access, and 1.5km of trenching on different zones of the project. Trenches were located on zones of previously observed Au-Cu-Ag intrusion-related mineralization; 294 rock samples were collected this season and all results have been received. Results show strong anomalies of the three mentioned elements; obtained values are being analyzed before being released.

SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC

Sample preparation for projects in Argentina is carried out by ALS Chemex Argentina, a subsidiary of ALS Minerals, at its facility located in Mendoza, Argentina. Analyses are carried out at their laboratory in Lima, Peru. Sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31).

Gold was analyzed by fire assay of a 30 g sample split with detection by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES); multi-elements were analyzed by aqua regia digestion of a 1 gram sub-sample with detection by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES) for 35 elements (Ag, Al, As, B, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ga, Hg, K, La, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, P, Pb, S, Sb, Sc, Sr, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Zn) (codes Au-ICP21 and ME-ICP41). This digestion method dissolves most minerals but not all elements are quantitatively extracted in some sample matrices. Over limit Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn OG46 analyses are conducted when samples exceed the upper detection limits; this method includes Aqua Regia digestion and ICP-AES finish. Method Ag-GRA22 which includes Fire Assay with gravimetric finish is applied when Ag exceeds 1500 g/t. Tritration method is applied when Pb and Zn exceed 20 and 30%, respectively (codes Pb-VOL70 and Zn-VOL50). Control samples (standards, blanks, and duplicates) are inserted systematically and their results evaluated according to the Company protocols.
