NORTHERN LIGHTS INITIATES EXPLORATION PROGRAM AT THE HORETZKY PROJECT
Northern Lights Resources Corp. has initiated field exploration program at the Horetzky project located in north-central British Columbia, Canada.
Following a detailed review of the historic work completed on the project (see Northern Lights announcement Dec. 10, 2024, for full details), Northern Lights has developed a preliminary exploration program as follows:
-
IP survey -- A broad spaced 10-line-kilometre IP survey overlying and extending the IP survey work completed by Hecla Mining in 1972. The new IP survey will penetrate to much deeper depths than the historic IP surveys. The survey, at a line spacing of 500 to 600 metres, will provide deeper penetration over a broad area and will extend farther to the southwest than historic work where there are identified gold- and copper-in-soil and mag anomalies. This survey is scheduled to be completed in October. The new IP survey data, together with the historic Hecla IP survey results, will provide guidance on the potential mineralization at depth for drill targeting.
-
Alteration mapping and surface sampling -- Alteration mapping and sampling will be conducted, with 200 to 300 rock/soil samples to extend the surface anomaly downslope of historic work on the southeast and southwest side of the diorite outcrop zone. The alteration mapping across the mineralized intrusion and quartz stockwork zones proximal to the intrusion, along with multielement data from surface samples, will be used to guide drill planning.
-
Historic IP and mag inversions -- The historic geophysical data will be reprocessed with inversion of historical IP/resistivity, and 3-D Voxel inversion of historic airborne magnetics.
Northern Lights chief executive officer Jason Bahnsen commented: "We are pleased to start the field exploration program at Horetzky. We have contracted a geophysical company to complete the IP program in October. This new IP data, together with extended surface sampling and alteration mapping, will be invaluable for future drill targeting.
"
The company advises that it has modified its incentive stock option grant, previously announced Sept. 18, 2025, to 2.4 million incentive stock options. Each option is exercisable to purchase one common share of the company at a price of eight cents per share for a term of two years. All options vest upon grant.
