Sanatana Resources has identified a new cop-per-bearing zone at the Oweegee Dome copper-gold project located in British Columbia, Canada.
“The discovery of the Tarn zone greatly upgrades the Skowill pro-spect and augments the porphyry copper-gold mineralization ob-served at the Malloy and Snowpatch zones over 8 km south at the Delta prospect. The Oweegee Dome project is the subject of an op-tion agreement between Sanatana and ArcWest Exploration Inc.,” the miner said in a statement.
Following the discovery, some 229 rock samples have been submit-ted for analysis, and results are expected to be obtained shortly, ac-cording to the statement.
Buddy Doyle, Sanatana's president, commented that the “discovery of copper mineralization at the Tarn zone along with the copper-gold porphyry mineralization at the Malloy and Snowpatch zones greatly enhances the overall perspectivity of the Oweegee Dome project. Our recent work greatly supports our original exploration concept that Oweegee hosts multiple rock-covered porphyry systems. Our contin-uing efforts will focus on identifying drill targets for 2022."
