SKRR CORPORATE UPDATE:
SKRR Exploration Inc. has a big and diversified portfolio of extremely potential early-stage treasured metals and strategic base metals, together with nickel, cobalt and zinc. The Firm presently operates 9 separate initiatives, totaling 72,478 ha., together with 8 within the province of Saskatchewan and 1 within the province of British Columbia. In Saskatchewan, 5 initiatives are primarily centered on gold (Olson, Ithingo, Olson, Manson Bay and Cathro), 2 initiatives are primarily centered on nickel and cobalt (Father Lake and Carp River) and 1 venture centered on zinc and silver ( Borys Lake ). In British Columbia , SKRR operates the Nickel Peak declare group positioned within the FPX Metals “Decar Camp”.
2022 Exploration Recap
In 2022, the Firm was actively exploring on a number of of its Saskatchewan initiatives.
January – February 2022 – The Firm accomplished a 10-hole, 1867m drill program at its Olson property. 9 of the ten holes intersected vital gold mineralization in 4 separate goal areas, together with the Olson, Akbar, Michaels Lake and Carina areas. Drilling at Michaels Lake resulted in a brand new discovery with gap OL22009 intersecting a really broad steady interval yielding 0.56 g/t Au over 50.35m .
March 2022 – The corporate accomplished a 4,288 line-km airborne magnetic survey at 75m line spacing on the southern core a part of its Irving Lake property. An extra 565 line-km of airborne magnetic survey at 75m line spacing was flown on the northern Bailey and Easton areas of the Irving Lake property.
April 2022 – The corporate accomplished a 1,042 line-km airborne magnetic survey at 50m line spacing on its Father Lake venture. The magnetic discipline consists of a collection of excessive and low tendencies parallel to the Grease River fault which demarcates the Dodge Area (north aspect) and Tantato Area (south aspect). The magnetic options spotlight the contacts alongside the hybrid gneiss complicated (interlayered felsic gneiss, mafic gneiss and metasediments) on the south aspect of the Grease River shear zone. A significant NW-SE structural characteristic is noticed which additionally offsets recognized VTEM conductors within the space. (The Dumas Lake fault). The nickel host rock is a 200m to 800m broad norite physique that may be traced for 16km trending east northeast with quite a few nickel and copper showings alongside development. The earlier Strongbow Exploration Inc.’s Nickel Lake / Dumas Lake venture covers a number of historic nickel and copper showings together with: the Dumas Zones A, B, C & D. The norite host rock seems outlined by a magnetic excessive along side VTEM conductors.
June 2022 – In June 2022 a geological mapping and sampling program was accomplished on the Cathro Challenge. Lithological knowledge was collected from eight places, together with 47 rock samples. Moreover, 430 soil samples have been collected from 15 east-west trending soil strains, with samples spaced 25 m aside. Soil samples returned gold values starting from 0.1 to 320 ppb Au. Essentially the most vital values have been obtained between 230m to 1200m north-northwest of the Vidgy zone. Of the 47 rock samples collected, the best gold (2,490 ppb), silver (4.59 ppm) and copper (5,400 ppb) have been returned from pattern MHCTR009, which sampled a granodioritic unit cross-cut by a 2-5cm broad quartz vein close to the Bartlett Lake displaying. General outcomes present quite a few anomalous areas in a number of areas of the property, and additional follow-up work of mapping and sampling, adopted by drilling is really useful.
A Deal with Nickel for 2023
SKRR Exploration Inc. has entered right into a non-arm’s-length acquisition settlement dated Oct. 24, 2022 , to amass a 100-per-cent curiosity in Edge Geological Consulting Inc.’s Carp River nickel-copper-cobalt property consisting of 5 mineral claims comprising a complete of 5,606.48 hectares.
Challenge Highlights:
Positioned in mineral-rich Saskatchewan , a world-class mining jurisdiction, instantly north of the city of Stony Rapids , The Carp River Nickel-Copper property is located inside the same regional bedrock lithology related to the close by Axis Lake and Rea Lake Ni-Cu-Co deposits and Currie Lake occurrences of ALX’s Firebird property, on which Rio Tinto has an possibility settlement to earn 80 per cent.
Quite a few nickel, copper and cobalt showings alongside development, together with the Carp River and Wager claims and McAskill showings related to a number of moderate- to high-priority interpreted VTEM (versatile time area electromagnetic) anomalies.
Historic soil grid survey exploration on the Carp River grid in 2005 decided that Ni, Cu and Co anomalies have been vital and comparable with these related to the Axis Lake and Currie Lake occurrences positioned 5 kilometres and 10 kilometres to the west, respectively.
Sherman Dahl , SKRR Exploration‘s chief govt officer, commented:
“SKRR continues to construct shareholder worth by pondering exterior the field. Over the past six months, we have now expanded our property portfolio with a concentrate on battery metals in each Northern Saskatchewan and British Columbia . Over the subsequent few months, we’re additional dedicated to unlocking the worth of our portfolio of gold and battery metallic property. We’re extraordinarily excited to amass the Carp River nickel-copper-cobalt property and add to our increasing portfolio of property in one of many world’s premier mining jurisdictions.”
The Carp River nickel-copper property particulars
The Carp River property, composed of 5 contiguous mineral claims totalling 5,606.48 hectares, is positioned instantly north of the hamlet of Stony Rapids within the province of Saskatchewan . Stony Rapids is a full-service neighborhood with a business airport. Entry to the property is thru fixed-wing or helicopter plane. From a regional perspective, the property lies throughout the Tantato area, which makes up a part of the numerous Snowbird tectonic zone. Regionally, bedrock consists primarily of mafic granulite and garnet-pyroxene diatexite formations, which prolong on strike to the west towards the Axis Lake and Rea Lake Ni-Cu-Co deposits and the Currie Lake occurrences positioned inside 5 km to 10 km to the west of Carp River.
Historic exploration by Pink Dragon and Pure Nickel Inc. in 2005 included a regional airborne VTEM geophysics survey, which coated the recognized Axis Lake, Rea Lake , Currie Lake and different showings. Interpretation of the 2005 VTEM survey picked quite a few extremely rated VTEM anomalies over the Carp River property. Comply with-up soil grid surveys have been carried out over areas the place they decided that the conductors regarded potential. Pink Dragon and Pure Nickel decided that the Ni-Cu-Co anomalies grew to become extra intense near nickeliferous norite our bodies. A type of grids surveyed was the Carp River grid, positioned in the course of the Carp River property, the place soil outcomes have been vital and comparable with these across the Axis Lake and Currie Lake occurrences.
SKRR Exploration cautions that among the historic outcomes have been collected and reported by previous operators, and have been neither verified nor confirmed by a certified individual, however type a foundation for future work on the Carp River property. Mineralization hosted on close by properties just isn’t essentially indicative of mineralization which may be hosted on the Carp River property.
Replace on Father Lake Nickel airborne geophysics survey
A high-resolution helicopter-borne magnetic survey was carried out by Precision GeoSurveys Inc. between April 2 to April 6, 2022 (see information launch dated March 22, 2022 ). The survey collected 1,042 line km of high-resolution magnetic knowledge over one survey block. All the property was coated with the magnetic survey. Interpretation of the geophysics survey was accomplished by Bingham Geoscience.
The magnetic discipline consists of a collection of excessive and low tendencies parallel to the Grease River fault, which demarcate the Dodge area (north aspect) and the Tantato area (south aspect). The magnetic options spotlight the contacts alongside the hybrid gneiss complicated (interlayered felsic gneiss, mafic gneiss and metasediments) on the south aspect of the Grease River shear zone. A significant northwest-southeast structural characteristic is noticed, which additionally offsets recognized VTEM conductors within the space (The Dumas Lake fault).
The nickel host rock is a 200-metre-to-800-metre-wide norite physique that may be traced for 16 km trending east-northeast with quite a few nickel and copper showings alongside development. The venture covers a number of historic nickel and copper showings, together with: the Dumas zones A, B, C and D. The norite host rock seems outlined by a magnetic excessive along side historic interpreted VTEM conductors.
The VTEM covers the west aspect of the venture, and an older MegaTEM survey covers the complete venture. Nonetheless, the MegaTEM doesn’t appear to resolve conductors properly. There may be not less than one small space with a robust conductor on the east portion of the property. Protection of the east portion of the property with VTEM could also be a future possibility.
SKRR’s Nickel Peak Declare Group Overview
SKRR Exploration Inc. has additionally expanded its 100-per-cent-owned Nickel Peak declare group to cowl further areas of curiosity over the Creek complex-Trembleur ultramafite unit Late Pennsylvanian to Late Triassic ultramafic rocks, contiguous to FPX Nickel Corp.

SKRR shall be a frontrunner with a diversified portfolio of high-quality long-life property. The SKRR crew has completed an unbelievable job over the previous couple of years of drilling, exploring, discovering and positioning the corporate for achievement.”
These extremely potential Nickel Peak Group claims are contiguous to the east of Surge Battery Metallic and Nickel Rock Sources’s Nickel 100 group that cowl 18 British Columbian Minfile chromite occurrences, a few of that are reported to be mineralized with nickel, platinum-palladium group and different uncommon, extremely precious parts. SKRR cautions that previous outcomes or discoveries on proximate land should not essentially indicative of the outcomes which may be achieved on the Nickel Peak group.
Nickel-cobalt mineralization has not been well-explored, however the presence of awaruite has been documented. Geologist Ursula Mowat accomplished a preliminary fieldwork program over the realm of the Nickel 100 declare group in 2004, and confirmed the presence of elevated nickel, cobalt and chromium values in rocks and stream sediments. Ms. Mowat is the recipient of the 2015 H.H. Spud Huestis Award for excellence in prospecting and mineral exploration granted by the Affiliation of Mineral Exploration (AME) in B.C. AME B.C. is each a big and profitable trade affiliation representing the mineral exploration trade in B.C.
