VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 13, 2023 / Gama Explorations Inc. (CSE:GAMA)(FSE:N79) ("Gama" or the "Company") is pleased to announce preliminary remote sensing results for the Muskox Lithium Property (the "Property") in the Yellowknife Pegmatite Province of The Northwest Territories, Canada.
Remote Sensing Highlights
- Over 30 new potential pegmatites were identified as priority ground targets.
- The longest newly identified potential pegmatite is over 600m in strike length.
- Further multispectral analysis is in progress to delineate further targets for groundwork.
- The above pegmatites are in addition to the Company's previously announced CM-1 pegmatite, which has been traced to a strike length of ~730m and produced average grades through channel sampling of 1.34% Li2O over 5m and 1.26% Li2O over 11m.
"The Muskox claims have significant surface exposure, which allows us to purchase and use high-resolution commercial satellite data to identify potential pegmatites in a cost-effective manner", stated Dr. Mick Carew, CEO of Gama. "One potential pegmatite of interest in the northern end of the claims is over 600 m in strike length and strikes in the same orientation as the known and lithium-bearing CM-1 pegmatite. Further, there are additional smaller possible pegmatites that occur close to the road in the southwest of our claim block.
"As our remote sensing initiatives continue, we are looking forward to having boots on the ground this summer. In addition to this field work helping confirm pegmatite targets identified from satellite imagery, systematic prospecting throughout the remainder of the project area could also yield additional pegmatites not visible from remote sensing data."
Analysis of Sensing Data
The Company purchased SPOT 6 satellite imagery overlying the Muskox claims. The imagery has a resolution of 1.5m per pixel and is therefore much more accurate than publicly available data. The dataset is multispectral and contains wavelengths that are outside of the visible spectrum. To date, only true-colour imagery has been analysed and the spectral data will be processed in near future. Ground follow-up is planned to commence in June and consist of mapping, prospecting and channel sampling. The Company expects to be in a position to drill the claims in the second half of this year.
