Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - October 13, 2021 - Leocor Gold Inc. (the “Company” or “Leocor”) (CNSX:LECR.CN) (OTC:LECR) (FRA:LGO) is pleased to announce it has received exploration approval for its Roberts Arm project, the NW corner of which is located 2 km south of the community of Roberts Arm in Northern Newfoundland, Canada.
Exploration activities consisting of prospecting, geochemical survey, ground geophysics, line cutting, GT Probe holes, RAB holes and fixed wing airborne surveys (LiDAR, UAV) are approved on the Company’s Roberts Arm project.
Leocor’s Roberts Arm Project covers 12 mineral licences for a total of 1706 claims or 42,650 hectares. The project straddles 38 km of the Red Indian Line suture zone and has around 200 km of magnetic high lineaments which are untested gabbro’s many of which are likely to create rheological contrast and open space for gold bearing fluids to collect.
A soil sampling program constituting a planned campaign of approximately 4200 soils is currently underway (see image 3 for current progress). Road accessible soils representing 2718 samples have been collected with the remaining approximately 1500 Helicopter-supported targets to be collected in the coming two weeks.
