Strategic Metals Announces Large Share Position in Broden Mining

31.08.2021  |  Accesswire

VANCOUVER, August 31, 2021 - Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSXV:SMD) ("Strategic" or the "Company") announces that it owns 40% of the outstanding shares of Broden Mining Ltd. ("Broden"), a private company that is working with Ross River Dena Council ("RRDC") to complete the acquisition of a large package of land ("Vangorda Lands") in the Faro mining district, southern Yukon (Figure 1). The Vangorda Lands host several deposits containing zinc, lead, silver and other valuable metals, and there is excellent potential for additional discoveries (see joint news release with the Government of Canada, Ross River Dena Council and private entity Broden Mining dated August 30, 2021).

"Strategic and its partners have been working on this acquisition for several years and we consider it to be one of, if not the most important milestones in the history of the Company," states Doug Eaton, CEO of Strategic. "The deposits on the Vangorda Lands are some of the largest and richest zinc-lead-silver prospects in Canada and they benefit from excellent infrastructure. We anticipate working closely with our partners to bring this important mining district back into production."

There are five known mineral deposits on the Vangorda Lands and adjacent Silver Range Project, plus several less-explored prospects. The largest deposits are Grum, Grizzly and Keg. The known deposits collectively contain more than 5.38 billion pounds of zinc, 3.54 billion pounds of lead, 111 million ounces of silver and 870,000 ounces of gold, in all resource categories (see attached table for details). The reader is cautioned that the resource estimates are historical in nature.

Broden and RRDC have formed Tze Zul Development Corporation as the vehicle to explore the Vangorda Lands and, if warranted, develop the deposits. The parties have an agreement in principal with Canada and Yukon concerning the acquisition of mineral rights within the Vangorda Plateau portion of the Faro Mine reclamation area and claims that are under receivership, to the southeast of the Vangorda Plateau. There is also an agreement with Silver Range Resources Ltd. ("Silver Range") concerning acquisition of a 100% interest in a large claim block that lies north of the Vangorda Lands. Tze Zul will not be acquiring any rights or obligations concerning the remainder of the Faro Mine reclamation area, which covers the former Faro Mine, the old mill complex and the tailings storage facility. Figure 2 shows the location of the various components of the land package, along with the location of former mines and mineral deposits.

Strategic's interest in Broden is increased indirectly by its 18.1% shareholding in Silver Range, which owns 10% of Broden and retains a net smelter return interest in mineral production from its mineral claims in the area (see Silver Range Project on Figure 2).

Technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Matthew R. Dumala, P.Eng., a geological engineer with Archer, Cathro & Associates (1981) Limited and a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101.
