Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 17, 2024) - Doubleview Gold Corp (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) (the "Company or "Doubleview") is pleased to announce that it has staked additional claims at its Polymetallic Hat Porphyry Project ("the Hat Project"), located in northwestern British Columbia.
The Company has staked nine additional mineral claims at the eastern side of the Hat Project, bringing the total area claimed to 18,114 hectares.
Mr. Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview stated, "expanding the mineral claims demonstrates the Company's unwavering commitment to advancing the Hat Project. This year's successful exploration program, which included 10,000 metres of additional drilling, highlights the Project's promising future. With significant copper, cobalt and scandium content, the Hat Project stands as a major resource of critical minerals in Canada."
The first 3 drill holes of the 2024 drill campaign were announced on October 16, 2024.
Highlights and significant downhole intervals include the following:
Drill hole H072:
- 686.0m of 0.23% Cu, 0.16 g/t Au, 64 g/t Co, 0.33 g/t Ag and 25.7 g/t Sc (0.38% CuEq*)
- including 154.0m of 0.66% Cu, 0.46 g/t Au, 112 g/t Co, 0.96 g/t Ag and 24 g/t Sc (1.07% CuEq*)
- including 62.0m of 1.12% Cu, 0.79 g/t Au, 173 g/t Co, 1.62 g/t Ag and 23.9 g/t Sc (1.81 % CuEq*)
- including 2.0m of 5% Cu, 2.96 g/t Au, 511 g/t Co, 5.03 g/t Ag and 7 g/t Sc (7.48% CuEq*)
Drill hole H073:
- 109m of 0.29% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au, 83 g/t Co, 0.47 g/t Ag and 29.6 g/t Sc (0.5% CuEq*).
Drill hole H074:
- 128 m of 0.18%Cu, 0.14 g/t Au, 82 g/t Co, 0.29 g/t Ag and 29 g/t Sc (0.33% CuEq*)
Notes:
- Metal equivalents should not be relied upon for future evaluations.
- Drill hole intercepts included in this news release are core lengths that may or may not be true widths of mineralization. It is not possible to determine true widths.
- Parameters used to calculate Copper Equivalent:
Au price (US$/oz): 1900; Ag price (US$/oz): 24; Cu price (US$/lb): 4; Co price (US$/lb): 22.
Au recovery: 89.0%; Ag recovery: 68.0%; Cu recovery: 84.0%; Co recovery: 78.0%.
* Copper Equivalent Calculation
CuEq in % = ([Ag grade in ppm] *24*0.68/31.1035 + [Au grade in ppm] *1900*.89/31.1035 + 0.0001* [Co grade in ppm] *22*0.78*22.0462 + 0.0001* [Cu grade in ppm] *4*0.84*22.0462)/(4*22.0462*0.84). Scandium is not part of the copper equivalent calculation.
The Company's is awaiting the results of the remaining 15 drill holes which will be announced when the analytical results from the laboratory are available, and the data compilation and QA/QC procedures are completed. These results are going to contribute to the updated mineral resource estimate ('MRE 2.0').
