PROJECT
OVERVIEW
Previous exploration suggests over 20 individual high-grade zones along the current strike length of the northeast-trending Newman Todd Structure (NTS).
Worth the weight
  • Can be traced for at least 2.2 km along strike
  • Hosts network of very gold-rich veins
  • NTS likely reflects a regional trend and remains open along strike and at depth
  • Ownership: 100%
Deposit Potential

Until now it has been only sparsely drilled or tested at depths below 400 meters. Therefore, the project has excellent potential: mineralization remains open along strike and depth, and potentially in postulated parallel features. Over 40% of the drilled holes have intercepted greater than 10g/t Au over various interval lengths.

Early exploration was carried out on the southwest extension of the property in the middle 1930s and again later in the middle 1940s. There is little information available about work in these periods aside from reports regarding trenching, drilling and bulk sampling.

Exploration Results
56 holes drilled in 2011 identified zones of high-grade gold mineralization along the northeast trending NTS, and at depth. Geological mapping and surface sampling programs led to the discovery of high-grade gold mineralization at surface. This opened the possibility of discovering a near-surface resource.

Assay results from the 2012 program targeting the central NTS Hinge Zone were excellent:
  • 681 g/t gold over 0.5 meters and was drilled in hole NT-114
  • 10 meters of 7.43 g/t gold in hole NT-162
  • 41% of drill holes intercepted > 10 g/t Au over various interval lengths
  • Several high-grade samples (average length 1.5 meters) in NT-161 and NT-163
In the Southwest Extension, diamond drill hole results reported in The Northern Mine (1946), after converting gold values at $38.50 per ounce, include:19.60 gpt Au over 1.52 m (0.63 opt over 5 ft)
  • 12.44 gpt Au over 3.05 m (0.40 opt over 10 ft)
  • 6.22 gpt Au over 2.74 m (0.20 opt over 9 ft)
  • 7.78 gpt Au over 1.83 m (0.25 opt over 6 ft)
Exploration Results
Despite extensive drilling on the property, there remains a gap to the northeast along the NTS, and at depths below about 350 to 400 meters. Additionally, a synthesis of previous exploration, reports, and fieldwork has given rise to new ideas such as the potential for multiple stacked horizons of mineralization, and new targets to test in a renewed exploration and drilling program.
  • Ground magnetic survey to help delineate structures, rock packages, confirm ideas
  • Drill at new orientations along NTS to intersect north-trending cross-structures and the full extent of the mineralization host
  • Infill drill the gap toward the northeast and at depth

As of November 15, total 2021 drilling stands at 15,927 metres on the combined Newman Todd and Rivard Projects. The following tables provide all significant composite data and drill hole collars for the drill programs undertaken by Trillium Gold in 2020 and 2021. 

NT-Rivard All Significant Composites
NT-Rivard Drillhole Collars
In the Southwest Extension, gold is observed in quartz veins in drill core, outcrops and in trenches across the property. Modest coarse gold production from pits and trenches has been ongoing for more than two decades by the Rivard family.
  • Alteration and wide spread gold mineralization occur extensively within structurally and chemically favorable rocks.
  • It is underexplored and has not been drilled below 300 meters vertically.
Historically, the Southwest Extension contains both visible gold in narrow high-grade veins as well as in broader zones of lower grade gold mineralization. Our technical team will commence an exploration program by updating and confirming the geological data from our predecessors ahead of a drill program planned for later this year.
