VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA -- July 21,
2021 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- St. James Gold Corp. (TSXV:
LORD) (OTCQB:
LRDJF) (FSE: BVU3), St. James Gold Corp. (the
"Company") is pleased to announce exploration is
underway at the recently optioned Grub Line gold property in
Newfoundland, Canada (the "Grub Line Property") at
a prospective location along the Gander River Ultramafic Belt with
project field operator, local exploration service company Planet X
Exploration Services Ltd.
The Grub Line Property includes 29 map-staked
claims covering 725 Hectares. The initial exploration program
currently underway includes regional prospecting and ground-truth
verification of historical prospects located on the property.
The Grub Line Property covers a package of the
Gander River complex of rocks. See photographs below. This package
is comprised of felsic volcanics, mafic volcanics, ultramafic
rocks, and gabbro intrusions. Intense hydrothermal activity has
altered the rocks and strong sericite, calcite, chlorite &
talc-carbonate alteration has been observed in host rocks and
quartz veins throughout the property. There can be rich endowments
of sulphide minerals in these geological environments. Listwanites
or carbonatized ultramafics that commonly occur in the gander river
complex of rocks have been identified as potentially
gold-bearing.
The spatial relationship of gold mineralization
to faults zones with carbonatized ultramafics/listwanites suggests
a comparison to the Mother Lode Belt in California. Similar
listwanitic gold quartz veins have formed economic deposits in the
metamorphic belts of California and the Juneau Gold belt in Alaska.
The program manager, Planet X Exploration Services Ltd. is using a
general deposit model where the carbonatization of ultramafic rocks
and the development of gold veins in and above thrusts, reverse and
normal faults act as a guide for exploration along the Grub Line
Property.

The initial exploration program at the Grub Line
Property consists of regional prospecting and ground-truthing
historical prospects located within the 725-hectare project area.
The Grub Line Property is believed to be an important aspect of the
major structural corridors related to both the Gander Gold belt and
the Newfound Gold Corporation – "Keats zone" hosting bonanza high
grade gold mineralization. The Grub Line Property hosts several
well-mineralized zones and is located only 8 km east of
the Newfound Gold
Corp.'s "Keats
Discovery", and 3 km west of the Town of Gander,
on the island of Newfoundland, Canada.
The following quote from the technical report by Christopher
Baldys, P.Eng and Dean Fraser, P.Geo. for the Grun Line Property
dated April 1, 2021 addresses the significance of the quarry sites
on the property.
| "Generally speaking, the claim block occurs in an area of
fairly gentle topography with locally sparse to moderate tree
cover. Several outcrops were noted during the Property visit as
well as locally abundant till cover in places. Performing
exploration on the claims will likely require some consultation
with the aggregate companies working the area as well as
communications with cabin owners depending on the focus area of the
work program." |
George Drazenovic,
CEO, comments "the active quarries on our claim block
are very important because they give us a direct view of bedrock.
The pictures taken by Wesley Keats for Planet X Exploration
Services Ltd. in this first work program illustrate the bedrock.
Our NI 43-101 report on this property noted this outcrop with a
surprising degree of alteration.
Our contractors Planet X Exploration Services Ltd. provide a
valuable connection in the local community with both the aggregate
companies and cabin owners. Assays are pending on our first
samples, including from the rocks pictured in this news release. I
look forward to soon providing geological information from a
detailed prospecting program at our Grub Line Property. Information
will also be available soon on our Quinn Lake gold property."
