VANCOUVER, CANADA / ACCESSWIRE / April 1, 2019 / Unity Metals Corp. (the "Company") (TSXV: UTY) is pleased to announce that the Company is undertaking a field reconnaissance program of the Hewitt Point Gold Project, in the Phillips Arm Gold Camp.
The primary purpose of the program is to follow up on historic sampling conduct on the Project by Long Lac Minerals in 1981. Long Lac collected a massive sulphide sample (F-29) from near a historic mine adit that assayed 6.2g/t Au and more than 2% Cu. A second sample (F-9-2) was collected from a shear zone at a historic shaft at the shore on Hewitt Point and assayed 6.95g/t Au, 50+ g/t Ag, and 0.13% Mo. A third area of interest is the Monte Cristo showing (BC Minfile 092K 022) where strong shearing hosts precious metal and copper enrichment. A 1918 vein sample assayed 1.37g/t Au and 75g/t Ag while a 1916 bulk sample at Monte Cristo averaged 2.7% Cu when processed at the Tacoma Smelter. The four-man field crew will take surface samples and test prospective outcrops along strike with the occurrences using portable Shaw drills, which have an effective depth of 10m, to expand known mineralized systems on the claims.
