The company expects the initial set of results to
become available in the near term.
Black
Tusk Resources Inc. (TUSK:CSE; BTKRF:OTC) announced in a news release it finished phase one of diamond drilling at
its Golden Valley project in Quebec.
"Phase one of the drill program has gone as we have planned and we
expect to have first round of drill results back from the lab in the near
term," CEO Richard Penn said in the release.
That work included drilling 11 holes over 1,458.2 meters. Holes were from
137–201m in length and spaced over a 4 kilometer (4 km) strike length. The
purpose of drilling was to confirm historical gold-bearing intercepts and
test geological and geophysical targets delineated from regional data.
Phase one also involved obtaining drill core samples, which Black Tusk
took from various features in the core, including sulphides, quartz veins,
shear zones and others. The exploration company shipped 443 of them to ALS
Global Laboratory in Rouyn-Noranda, located about 25 km south of Golden
Valley. The lab will analyze them for gold using fire assay and for 35
elements using inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
All results are pending. Once they are available, Dr. Matthieu Piche,
geological consultant on the Golden Valley project, will work with Black
Tusk's geology team to plan the next exploration steps, including additional
drilling.
