Management of SIRIOS RESOURCES INC. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to announce the start of the 2023 exploration program on its Aquilon gold property. The program is financed by Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada (Sumitomo), with Sirios as the operator. Sumitomo has an option to acquire up to an 80% interest in Aquilon, following an investment totaling $14.8M (ref. press release of 19/12/2022).

Work to be undertaken in the coming weeks will include:

  • Large-scale till geochemical sampling survey to locate new undercover mineralized areas;
  • Induced Polarization (IP) ground geophysical survey (approximately 40-line km) to define extensions of the known sulphide-associated gold showings and locate new showings;
  • Series of mechanically excavated trenches focusing on several geological and geophysical targets. The trenches will be systematically sampled and mapped during the summer.

This winter program will be followed in the summer by intensive fieldwork including additional soil and rock sampling as well as geophysical and geological surveys in order to advance the property to a drill-ready stage by the end of 2023.
