Stuhini Provides Exploration Update on Volcanic Creek Molybdenum Target

28.11.2023  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, Nov. 28, 2023 - Stuhini Exploration Ltd. (the "Company" or Stuhini") (TSXV: STU) (OTCQB: STXPF) is pleased to provide an update on 2023 exploration at its Volcanic Creek Molybdenum target, part of its Ruby Creek Project (the "Project" or "Property" or "Ruby Creek") located 14 kilometres (km) east of Atlin, BC. The target is located approximately 4 km north of the Company's flagship Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit.

Summary

  • 9 rock grab samples taken ranging from 1.01 % molybdenum ("Mo") to 0.017 % Mo.
  • Mineralization style similar to Ruby Creek.
  • Up to 900 meters (m) distance between outcrops with significant Mo mineralization.

Note that rock grab samples are selective by nature and values reported may not represent the true grade or style of mineralization across the target area.

Dave O'Brien, Stuhini's President and CEO commented: "The presence of extensive molybdenum mineralization 4 km north of the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit further exhibits the prospectivity of the Ruby Creek Project. We are excited to explore this target in the hopes of adding an additional satellite deposit within close proximity to the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit we currently have."

Mineralization consists of coarse rosettes in quartz veins and molybdenum veinlets analogous to those at the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit found in float and outcrop. Mineralization is hosted in older rock units than the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit but is likely to be similar in age to the Ruby Creek Molybdenum Deposit. The Company plans to follow up in the summer of 2024.

About Volcanic Creek Molybdenum Target

The Company acquired the Volcanic Creek Molybdenum target by staking 848.1 hectares ("ha") in 1 new claim block contiguous to the north of its existing Ruby Creek tenures in February 2023 (see February 17, 2023 new release). The new claim, which was consolidated into the Company's Ruby Creek Project, is situated in the headwaters of Volcanic Creek and is referred to as the "Volcanic Creek Moly" showing in BC Minfiles. Previous historic exploration work reported mineralization at surface and includes two drill holes drilled by Placer Development Ltd. in 1981. Hole DDH 81-1 intersected 24.38 m of 0.066% molybdenum disulfide ("MoS2") (0.040% Mo) starting at a depth of 33.53 m, including 6.10 m of 0.14 MoS2 (0.082 % Mo).

QA/QC protocol: Rock material was collected in poly bags and then transported to the Bureau Veritas sample preparation facility located in Whitehorse, Yukon. Samples were crushed, and then pulps were sent to the Bureau Veritas lab in Vancouver for assay. Four acid digestion and Ultratrace ICP-MS analysis for 59 elements and fire assay for gold were performed on all samples. Over-limit copper, lead, zinc and silver samples were analyzed by multi-acid digestion and ICP-ES (MA370). Over-limit tungsten was analyzed with lithium borate fusion XRF (XF750). Silver samples >1500 g/t were also analyzed by fire assay (FA530) and lead samples >10% with titration (GC817). Over-limit tungsten ("W") was analyzed with lithium borate fusion XRF (XF750). Conversion to WO 3 % = W % x 1.2616. All results have passed the QA/QC screening by the lab.

Ruby Creek Project: The 29,479-hectare Ruby Creek Project is road accessible and located 14 kilometres (km) east of Atlin, British Columbia ("BC"). There are 48 different documented mineral occurrences on the Property, of which 16 are gold-related, with 7 significant gold placer creeks. The Property also hosts the Ruby Creek Molybdenum deposit, which hosts a measured and indicated pit constrained resource of 433 million lbs molybdenum using US$15.00 per lb molybdenum prices and a 0.02% cut-off grade.1 Stuhini owns 100% of the Ruby Creek Project subject to a 1% NSR.The geological content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Ehsan Salmabadi, P.
