ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, Dec. 2, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - X-Terra Resources Inc. (TSXV: XTT) and (FRANKFURT: XTR) is pleased to announce that it has commenced a high resolution heliborne geophysical magnetic survey over the eastern portion of the Grog property located in the Restigouche county of New Brunswick, (see figure 1 below).
The survey is being conducted by Prospectair Geosurveys using a heliborne strapped down non-oriented sensor. The high sensitivity of this equipment will allow to detect weak magnetic contrasts required to interpret geological structures.
The survey will consist of 700 line-kilometres that will be flown at 50-metre line spacing covering approximately 31.5 km2, which will be completed before December 7, 2019.
The survey will serve to draw a preliminary geological and structural map combining the information the ground crews have collected over the last two stripping and trenching programs. The knowledge gained to date with field works highlights strong evidence of a possible relation between a large-scale fold hinge and the concentration of gold bearing fracturing and alteration systems. Magnetic patterns and contrasts will also help to define the extension of prospective trends.
Michael Ferreira, President and CEO of X-Terra Resources states: "This is an important step for us, as we have already begun our targeting initiatives for the inaugural drill program. This quick follow up serves as an ongoing compilation and understanding in order to define high quality gold drill targets for near term drilling".
