Geophysical Update
A final report has been received for all three surveys and results show a strong correlation between high resistivity anomalies of the known vein system both on surface and at depth. Several previously undiscovered vein systems and drill targets have also been outlined near surface, as well as a large resistive and conductive anomaly at depth.
On June 3, 2021, Independence Gold Corp. provided an update on the 3Ts project including assay results from the second drill hole returned from the lab. Drill hole 3T-21-08 targeted the Tommy Vein at depth below the microdiorite sill, intersecting a zone of brecciated quartz carbonate at 238.20 m, with the vein continuing to a depth of 251.80 m. Highlights from the Tommy Vein intersection in 3T-21-08 include:

Also announced on June 3, 2021, was the completion of a major geophysical survey that covered eight square kilometres. This survey comprised deep 3D IP and resistivity surveying and a magnetotelluric (“MT”) survey in order to obtain imagery of the geology beneath the microdiorite sill. Preliminary results of the survey are encouraging and show a strong correlation between low resistivity anomalies and the known veins both on surface and at depth, as well as new previously undiscovered vein systems.
On April 14, 2021, Independence Gold Corp. provided an update on the 3Ts project, including assay results from the first drill hole of a 4,500-metre winter diamond drilling program, a reanalysis of drill hole 3T-20-06 (drilled in 2020) to identify other potential elements of interest, and plans for a detailed geophysical survey to be carried out over the property.Drill hole 3T-21-01 was designed to test the Ted-Mint Offset Vein below the microdiorite sill, and highlights include:
