Loncor $LN.ca Outlines New Mineralised Trends, In Close Proximity to Key Adumbi Deposit in the DRC $ABX.ca $TECK.ca $RSG $NGT.to $GOLD $NEM

Posted by AGORACOM at 7:38 AM on Monday, September 21st, 2020
  • Exploration results have outlined a number of significant, undrilled mineralised trends at its 84.68%-owned Imbo Project.
  • Situated approximately 9 km from our key deposit of Adumbi

TORONTO, Sept. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Loncor Resources Inc. (“Loncor” or the “Company“) (TSX: “LN”; OTCQX: “LONCF”; FSE: “LO51”) is pleased to announce that the recent exploration results have outlined a number of significant, undrilled mineralised trends at its 84.68%-owned Imbo Project. The focus of exploration by Loncor during 2020 has been along trend in the southeast of the Imbo Project from the 2.5 million ounce Adumbi, Kitenge and Manzako deposits (inferred mineral resources of 30.65 million tonnes grading 2.54 g/t Au) previously delineated in the northwest of the 122 square kilometre project area.

Commenting on these results, Loncor’s President Peter Cowley said: “Situated approximately 9 kilometres from our key deposit of Adumbi, we are very encouraged by the exploration results received to date on the eastern part of our Imbo Project. Additional infill soil sampling, augering and channel sampling will be undertaken at Esio Wapi, Paradis and Museveni to better define these mineralised trends prior to outlining drill targets later in the year.”

Gridding, geological mapping, soil geochemical sampling and channel sampling of old colonial trenches and artisanal workings have outlined three significant mineralised trends, Esio Wapi, Paradis and Museveni, to the east of the Imbo river and approximately 8 to 10 kilometres southeast of the Adumbi deposit (see Figure 1 below). Analytical results have been received for 21% of soil samples from the completed 5,440 metre by 2,320 metre grid and where soil samples were collected every 40 metres on lines 160 metres apart.

At Esio Wapi, soil geochemical results have outlined a number of plus 200 ppb (parts per million) gold in soil anomalies with a maximum value of 2,230 ppb Au over a 3.2 kilometre long mineralised trend (see Figure 2 below). Best channel samples from old colonial workings are tabulated in Table 1 above and include 19.80 metres grading 1.58 g/t Au (open to the northeast), 8 metres grading 1.11 g/t Au and 5.0 metres grading 1.65 g/t Au in brecciated banded ironstone (BIF) and metasediment. Individual rock sample values included 15.10 g/t and 7.88 g/t Au in quartz veins; 12.30 g/t and 6.39 g/t Au in BIF and 7.91 g/t, 4.81 g/t and 4.52g/t Au in metasediments.

On the Paradis trend, soil sample results are still awaited from the eastern part of the trend but soil anomalies (plus 200 ppb Au) in the western part of the trend occur over 800 metres of strike. Significant channel samples along the Paradis trend include 6.8 metres grading 5.44 g/t Au (open to the southwest) in metasediments with quartz veins. Individual rock sample values included 22.40 g/t, 5.84 g/t and 2.31 g/t Au in quartz veins.

At Museveni, soil samples are still to be received but artisanal workings occur over a strike of 2.7 kilometres. Channel samples from the artisanal workings include 6.0 metres grading 4.37 g/t Au and 1.40 metres grading 62.10 g/t Au and represent high grade quartz veins in metasediment. Individual rock sample values included 53.90 g/t, 32.80 g/t and 32.60 g/t Au in quartz veins and 18.10 g/t Au in metasediment.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance
Soil, channel and rock samples were put in sealed bags by Company geologists and sent to the independent SGS Laboratory in Mwanza, Tanzania. The samples were then crushed at the laboratory down to minus 2 mm and split with one-half of the sample pulverized down to 90% passing 75 microns. Gold analyses were carried out on 50g aliquots by fire assay. In addition, checks assays were also carried out by the screen fire assay method to verify high grade sample assays obtained by fire assay. Internationally recognized standards and blanks were inserted as part of the internal QA/QC analytical procedures at a frequency of four standards and two blanks per every 50 samples. Every eighth sample collected in the field was split and submitted as an unmarked duplicate for assay.

Qualified Person
Peter N. Cowley, who is President of Loncor and a “qualified person” as such term is defined in National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical information in this press release. 

Technical Reports
Additional information with respect to the Company’s Imbo Project (which includes the Adumbi deposit) is contained in the technical report of Minecon Resources and Services Limited dated April 17, 2020 and entitled “Independent National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report on the Imbo Project, Ituri Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo”.

About Loncor Resources Inc.
Loncor is a Canadian gold exploration company focussed on the Ngayu Greenstone Belt in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the “DRC”). The Loncor team has over two decades of experience of operating in the DRC. Ngayu has numerous positive indicators based on the geology, artisanal activity, encouraging drill results and an existing gold resource base. The area is 220 kilometres southwest of the Kibali gold mine, which is operated by Barrick Gold (TSX: “ABX”; NYSE: “GOLD”). In 2019, Kibali produced record gold production of 814,000 ounces at “all-in sustaining costs” of US$693/oz. Barrick has highlighted the Ngayu Greenstone Belt as an area of particular exploration interest and is moving towards earning 65% of any discovery in 1,894 km2 of Loncor ground that they are exploring. As per the joint venture agreement signed in January 2016, Barrick manages and funds exploration on the said ground until the completion of a pre-feasibility study on any gold discovery meeting the investment criteria of Barrick. In a recent announcement Barrick highlighted six prospective drill targets and have commenced confirmation drilling in 2020. Subject to the DRC’s free carried interest requirements, Barrick would earn 65% of any discovery with Loncor holding the balance of 35%. Loncor will be required, from that point forward, to fund its pro-rata share in respect of the discovery in order to maintain its 35% interest or be diluted.

In addition to the Barrick JV, certain parcels of land within the Ngayu Belt surrounding and including the Adumbi and Makapela deposits have been retained by Loncor and do not form part of the joint venture with Barrick. Barrick has certain pre-emptive rights over the Makapela deposit. Adumbi and two neighbouring deposits hold an inferred mineral resource of 2.5 million ounces of gold (30.65 million tonnes grading 2.54 g/t Au), with 84.68% of this resource being attributable to Loncor via its 84.68% interest in the project. Loncor’s Makapela deposit (which is 100%-owned by Loncor) has an indicated mineral resource of 614,200 ounces of gold (2.20 million tonnes grading 8.66 g/t Au) and an inferred mineral resource of 549,600 ounces of gold (3.22 million tonnes grading 5.30 g/t Au).

Resolute Mining Limited (ASX/LSE: “RSG”) owns 26% of the outstanding shares of Loncor and holds a pre-emptive right to maintain its pro rata equity ownership interest in Loncor following the completion by Loncor of any proposed equity offering.

Additional information with respect to Loncor and its projects can be found on Loncor’s website at www.loncor.com.

VIDEO – $HPQ.ca Silicon Development Agreement With #Apollon Solar Expands Into Producing HYDROGEN, With Samples To French Military By December $DUK $XEL $NEE $PYR.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:39 PM on Friday, September 18th, 2020

When a CEO puts this quote in a press release, you have to take it seriously, especially when his two technology partners helping deliver on it are world renowned:

“Since 2017, our collaboration with Apollon has enabled us to benefit from their world-renowned expertise with high value-added Silicon applications.  The addition of manufacturing hydrogen by hydrolysis to our collaboration opens up a new and unique business opportunity that could represent a second multibillion-dollar addressable market for the PUREVAPTM Nano Silicon (Si) Reactor (“NSiR”) nanopowders.”

HYDROGEN BY HYDROLYSIS

Two technologies that could deliver vehicles with zero emissions are battery-electric powertrains and hydrogen fuel cells. HPQ is already on the road to becoming an electric battery player, with 2 NDA’s signed in the space – and now will be ready to start sending samples of its nano silicon powders to manufacture Hydrogen by hydrolysis, which is: 

“Getting porous silicon nano powders to react with water “H2O” and thereby releasing significant quantities of Hydrogen ” H2  “.

For decades, hydrogen was presumed to be “the fuel of the future,” with electric cars limited to the niche of small, short-range urban cars – but hasn’t been able to deliver due to too many issues to mention here with fuel cells.  Hydrogen by Hydrolysis is a great alternative but cost prohibitive due to the costs of porous silicon nano powders + power generation inefficiencies …. until now.

Enter HPQ Silicon.  

HPQ Silicon is so confident it can solve this problem that it will have samples of its powders ready for delivery to Apollon Solar and the French Military for testing by December.

Copper Price Rallies as Chinese Scrap Shipments Sink by 50% SPONSOR: Candente Copper $DNT.ca $CN.ca $FCX.ca $TECK.ca $FMG.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:47 AM on Friday, September 18th, 2020

Copper prices rallied on Friday after predictions that Chinese imports of scrap metal are likely to fall by half, forcing the country to up cargoes of concentrate and unwrought copper, which are already at record levels.

Copper for delivery in December trading in New York exchanged hands for $3.0525 per pound ($6,730 a tonne) in midday trade, up 1.8% from yesterday’s settlement and not far off two-year highs struck at the beginning of the month.

China consumes more copper than the rest of the world combined and Reuters reports the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association told a conference on Friday that imports of secondary copper could halve in 2020, from just under 1.5 million tonnes last year.

The country wants to eliminate imports of what it deems “foreign waste” and has implemented a strict quota system. 

In a recent research report, Roskill called scrap the most vulnerable link in the global supply chain and said Chinese importers’ attempts at diversification by buying more ingot and copper granules have only had limited success, forcing importers to buy cathode from the rest of the world, where metal demand has slumped.

Jonathan Barnes, associate consultant for copper at the London-based metal and minerals researcher, noted regulations set for June that would have classified copper scrap as a “renewable resource” to enable refiners to skirt regulations have been delayed indefinitely. 

Barnes says on top of that several major shipping lines are refusing to transport scrap, fearing liability for return shipment if containerized cargoes are rejected by Chinese customs.  

Concentrate hard to come by 

Barnes says while the effects of covid-19 could decrease world consumption of the metal by 3%–4% this year, the drop in mine output and scrap flows has been greater.

Customs data show China’s unwrought copper imports (anodes and cathodes) in August declined to 668,486 tonnes from July’s record haul of 762,211 tonnes, but still up 65% from August last year.

Year to date imports now total 4.27m tonnes, up 38% from 2019 and on track to easily beat 2018’s annual record of 5.3m tonnes. 

At the same time, concentrate supplies from South America, where China sources the bulk of its mined copper, have been disrupted due to covid. 

August imports of copper concentrate fell by more than 12% from the same month last year to 1.59m tonnes on lingering supply disruptions from Peru and Chile.

Loop Insights – Medium

Sometimes you just have to let the facts speak for themselves. Telus is one of Canada’s largest telecom companies with over 9,000,000 subscribers and a market capitalization of $30,000,000,000 (BILLION) … and they had this to say about Loop Insights (MTRX:TSXV)

Known for consistently putting our customers first and driving innovation in the telecommunications industry, we are always looking to elevate our customer experience and provide our customers with more value. We look forward to seeing Loop in action, and learning how we can enhance the customer experience together.”

We don’t know if there is anything more to be said, with MTRX trading over 6,000,000 shares in just 4 hours today – but we will say this for everyone who is new to MTRX, who we’ve been pounding the table on for the last 3 months.

For anyone who missed it we are providing the link to Tudor’s presentation on Treaty Creek.  Catalin Kilofliski and Ken Konkin only took 15 minutes to do a great job at giving us details on the geological system and where the focus is at Treaty Creek.  We highly encourage everyone to take a few minutes to watch it. 

Simply click here:  https://wsw.com/webcast/preciousmetals/tud.v/?lobby=true&day=3
 
The Treaty Creek Project is a Joint Venture with Tudor Gold, who owns 3/5th and acts as the operator. American Creek and Teuton Resources each have a 1/5th interest in the project creating a 3:1 ownership relationship between Tudor Gold and American Creek. American Creek and Teuton are both fully carried until such time as a Production Notice is issued, at which time they are required to contribute their respective 20% share of development costs. Until such time, Tudor is required to fund all exploration and development costs while both American Creek and Teuton have “free rides”.
 
We also recommend you forwarding this to friends, family, or anyone else you may know that has an interest in the gold mining sector.

Durango $DGO.ca Discovers Northeast Shear Zone Near Drill Target at Windfall Lake $OSK.ca $BTR.ca $SII.ca $TLG.ca

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:01 AM on Thursday, September 17th, 2020
  • The shear zone is 75 metres away from one of Durango’s high priority drill pads on the Trove Property.
  • Durango is in the final stages of targeting prior to commencing drilling on September 25, 2020.

Vancouver, BC – TheNewswire – September 17, 2020 – Durango Resources Inc.(TSXV:DGO) (Frankfurt-86A1) (OTC:ATOXF), (the “Company” or “Durango“) is pleased to report that further to its news release dated September 11, 2020, the exploration team has discovered a northeast shear zone with a set of stacked quartz veins at surface within a brecciated zone on the Trove Property at Windfall Lake, Quebec.

Durango now has multiple prospective areas, in addition to the previous drill targets defined by Induced Polarization (IP), soil sampling and airborne magnetic surveys. The Trove Property is located along the structural trend hosting Osisko Mining Inc.’s (TSX-OSK) Windfall Lake Deposit and the new surface data helps to better define the location of the structure on the Trove Property. Approximetly two hundred metres (200m) of newly stripped outcrops perpedicular to the structure are slated for sampling and assay.

The newly discovered shear zone is two metres (2m) wide and running subparallel to the regional fault. Figure 1 below shows the brecciated metasediment and the associated quartz veins. The structural measurements will help to precisely orient the upcoming drill holes. The shear zone is 75 metres away from one of Durango’s high priority drill pads on the Trove Property. The Company is in the final stages of targeting prior to commencing drilling on September 25, 2020.

The Company hired Orquest Drilling Inc. (“Orquest“) to undergo its fall drill program at Windfall Lake. The program is planned for a minimum of 2,220 metres and up to 5,000 metres with 27 permitted holes. Orquest will be using a clean-tech modular drilling system by DrillCo, which is the most environmentally friendly drill on the market. The DrillCo platform offers: 30% savings in fuel and electrical power; 75% reduction in the number of hoses and connections to reduce possibilities of leakage and spills; reduced hydraulic hoses to landfill; an air cooled system for reduced water consumption; and no discarded filters due to magnetic filtration systems.

Marcy Kiesman, CEO of Durango, stated, “Durango is proud to be using a new advanced drill system which offers financial savings, operational advantages and environmental responsibility. The ground work at Windfall Lake is ongoing and our exploration team has been continuously discovering important geological indicators pointing to the significance of the upcoming maiden drill program. We congratulate the geological team on their discovery of sizable shear zone, with multiple instances of quartz veining at surface. Durango is fully financed and looks forward to continue drilling into the winter, if warranted.”

The technical contents of this press release were approved by George Yordanov, professional geologist, an Independent Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. The Trove Property has not yet been subject to an NI-43-101 report.

Trove, Quebec

Durango owns 100% interest in the Trove claims, which are surrounded by Osisko Mining Inc. (TSX: OSK), in the Windfall Lake area between Val d’Or and Chibougamau, Quebec. The 1,185 hectare property is compelling due to the coincidence of gold found in tills coinciding with magnetic highs, several Induced Polarization anomalies and two faults crosscutting the property. The fault systems north and south of the Trove, control gold mineralization elsewhere, indicating the Trove has excellent exploration potential. Durango received all the final drill permits for the Trove property and is ready to undertake its inaugural drill program.
