Edmonton, AB – December 15, 2020 – Jaeger Resources Corp. (the “Company”) (TSXV:JAEG) is pleased to provide an update on the Company’s exploration activities on its Taylor Brook zinc – lead – silver – copper property in the Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick, Canada. Please see press releases of September 17 & 15, 2020 for updates of the geophysical and lithogeochemical surveys and October 7, 2020 for the preview of the geological model.
Recent field work has included mapping of the VLF geophysical anomalies and re-sampling of some of the diamond drill core from the 1995 and 1996 drill campaigns. Mineralized and unmineralized outcrops have been sampled and will be sent out for lithogeochemical analyses.
From a review of the historical drill logs, a chloritic iron formation (or exhalite) was noted in three drill holes that was not previously sampled. The significance of this unit is that it has been recognized and mapped at the former Brunswick Mine 12 deposit. A better understanding of the lithogeochemistry of the deposit will become more apparent as additional unsampled core from previous drilling is sampled.
Further exploration is warranted, as the property has not been systematically explored and delineated laterally to the east or west (Stratmat area, see press release of December 2, 2020), nor to depth as the property has had very limited exploration. This property appears to have several mineralized horizons and is folded with faulted offsets. These may be stacked horizons due to different lithostratigraphic horizons or stacked due to structural deformation. The property has the right host rocks, evidence of a mineralized system and potential for scale.
