Sable Receives Multiple Anomalous Cu-Au-Ag Results from the Perk Rocky Project in British Columbia

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sable Resources Ltd. (“Sable” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SAE | OTCQB:SBLRF) is pleased to announce that it has received preliminary results from its ongoing exploration campaign at the Perk Rocky project in British Columbia.

Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable, stated, “Sable’s team undertook a significant exploration program at Perk Rocky during the summer including extensive mapping and rock sampling augmenting historical sampling programs. This program has provided us with a better understanding of the geology of the project area and has broadly expanded the known mineralized Cu-Au-Ag footprint. We are working on completing the mapping and sampling work for this season, that will allow us to better understand the mineral system and its exploration potential.”

Highlights

Reprocessing and interpretation of historical VTEM data.
343 rock samples collected with 307 results received. All samples analyzed for Au, multielements and Terraspec.
Three months of mapping, rock sampling, and prospection.
Received results show values as high as 24.1% Cu, 560 g/t Au, and 591 g/t Ag.

Geology Description

Sable’s ongoing geological work at the Perk Rocky project is reporting different styles of mineralization including a large footprint of Cu-Au-Ag anomalous sodic-calcic alteration found in outcrops, subcrops, and float altered to epidote, albite, garnet, magnetite, and chalcopyrite that have returned significant values of Cu-Au-Ag. Small zones with Au-Cu porphyry A-type veinlets in diorites, and low-angled quartz veins hosting pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite that have returned strongly anomalous Au-Ag-Cu-Zn values.

From the 307 rock samples with results received, 90 samples returned values higher than 0.1% Cu ranging from <100 ppm Cu to a maximum of 24.1% Cu in a grab sample of quartz epidote vein with chalcopyrite and tennantite; 85 samples returned values higher than 0.1 g/t Au ranging from detection limit to an extremely high value of 560 g/t Au from a boulder of quartz vein with abundant sphalerite and 44 samples returned values higher than 5 g/t Ag with a maximum of 590 g/t Ag.

The Company is currently finishing the mapping work for this season and working on final mapping edits and interpretation of all data to define the next exploration steps. The Company notes that grab samples are selective by nature and therefore should not be understood as representative of the actual grades in the property. Table 1 below includes all samples with values >0.1% Cu along with some high-grade Au samples with low copper.

SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC

Sample preparation for projects in British Columbia is carried out by ALS Minerals, at its facility located in Kamloops. Analyses are carried out at their laboratory in Vancouver. Sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31). The samples contained in this press release were analyzed by methods Au-AA24 (Fire Assay Fusion and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry finish) and ME-MS61 (Four Acid Digestion with Mass Spectrometry finish); the latter one includes 48 elements (Al, Ag, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Y, Zn, Zr). Both digestion methods dissolve most minerals but not all elements are quantitatively extracted in some sample matrices. ALS additionally collects a subsample from the coarse reject to be analyzed by Terraspec; spectral data is sent to AISIRIS Australia to be processed and interpreted.

Control samples (standards, blanks, and duplicates) are inserted systematically, and their results evaluated according to the Company protocols.

ABOUT THE PERK ROCKY PROJECT

The Perk Rocky project is located 200km west of Williams Lake in west central British Columbia. Perk Rocky is a Cu-Au early-stage porphyry project with multiple zones of mineralization. It comprises a large alteration zone of at least 8km by 5km and has the potential for a significant Cu-Au porphyry deposit. The characteristics of the project align with the Company’s technical expertise and strategy of exploring large Cu-Au assets in geologically endowed and well-established jurisdictions as British Columbia.

ABOUT SABLE RESOURCES LTD.

Sable is a well-funded junior grassroots explorer focused on the discovery of Tier-One new precious metal and copper projects through systematic exploration in endowed terranes located in favourable, established mining jurisdictions. Sable’s focus is developing its large portfolio of new Greenfields projects to resource level. Sable is actively exploring the San Juan Regional Program (163,969 ha) incorporating the Don Julio, El Fierro, and Los Pumas Projects in San Juan Province, Argentina; and the Perk Rocky Project (10,475ha), Copper Queen (5,966 ha), and Rusty Peak (1,942 ha) properties in British Columbia.
