Garibaldi Applies "Full Force" At Nickel Mountain

August 18, 2017
Vancouver, British Columbia, August 18, 2017 - Garibaldi Resources (TSX.V: GGI) (the “Company” or “Garibaldi”) is pleased to provide an exploration and corporate update pertaining to the Company’s 63 sq. km and 100%-owned E&L Project at Nickel Mountain in the heart of northwest British Columbia’s prolific Eskay Camp.

Highlights: 
  • Crews, including Full Force Drilling out of Peachland, B.C., have mobilized to commence diamond drilling within the next several days at the historic E&L deposit, the Eskay Camp’s only nickel-copper massive sulphide system just 11 miles southwest of Eskay Creek;
  • SJ Geophysics has been carrying out ground-based loop EM geophysics to ensure even greater accuracy at targeting known nickel-copper-rich mineralized zones at the E&L and the strong, broad VTEM conductor estimated to begin within 20 to 40 meters below the deepest hole drilled (122 meters) by Silver Standard in the mid-1960’s;
  • Garibaldi’s initial drill holes targeting the VTEM conductor will be drilled from the west and the east in a scissor pattern to ensure successful intersections of the as yet unknown orientation of the anomaly in the third dimension.
Steve Regoci, President and CEO, stated: “It has been nearly 50 years since drilling has been carried out at the top of Nickel Mountain where massive sulphides were originally found in outcrop in the early 1960’s. I commend our team of nickel sulphide experts for the exceptional work they have done to compile and reinterpret historic data while merging that with our own geological and geophysical data covering the E&L and a potential multi-kilometer-long mineralized structural corridor. We will issue a news release upon the commencement of drilling.”

All 12 Silver Standard holes drilled in the mid-1960’s intersected nickel-copper mineralization highlighted by a 37.8-meter interval in DDH-4-1966 that returned 1.3% nickel and 0.79% copper, including 5.9% nickel and 1.7% copper over 2.74 meters near the bottom of the hole.

Regional Exploration

An update will be provided soon on the company’s exploration efforts along an apparent structural corridor at the E&L Project stretching for at least 6 km northeast of the historic deposit. Work is also being carried out elsewhere on the company’s large landholdings in the district. In total, Garibaldi controls one of the largest land positions among juniors in the Eskay Camp with just over 200 sq. km.
