Barsele Minerals summarizes 2021 exploration efforts

Barsele Minerals summarized its 2021 exploration efforts. The company is advancing the Barsele Gold project together with JV partner Agnico Eagle. In addition to fieldwork including mapping, prospecting, geophysical and geochemical surveys, a total of 3094m of diamond core were produced during a summer drill campaign, focusing on regional exploration. Some of the highlights include hole BAS21006, containing visible gold and grading 8.2g/t Au over 0.45m or hole BAS21007, grading 6.2m over 0.8m core length. At the Norra VMS prospect, hole NOR21001, testing a DHEM anomaly, intersected semi-massive pyrite over 10m, however, without anomalous base or precious metals, while hole NOR21005 encountered sphalerite clasts that could be derived from distal parts of the ore horizon.
