[{"type":"text","content":"Carube Commences Till Sampling Program at Stewart Brook Gold PropertyToronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2019) - Carube Copper Corp. (TSXV: CUC) is pleased to report that it has commenced a till sampling program at its 100%-owned Stewart Brook Gold project area (\"SBG\") located in Guysborough County, Nova Scotia. The SBG licenses cover over 46 square kilometers and show exploration potential for saddle-reef and vein style gold mineralization. Till is deposited on the surface during glaciation and contains rock and mineral fragments that provide clues to undiscovered mineralization in areas of limited exposure.Till sampling objectives:Successfully confirm the 8000m by 4000m gold in till anomaly defined by historic work in the 1980sExtend sampling to the west, where Country Harbour Mines and Widows Point gold deposits are locatedComplete a north to south line of till samples to determine the distance to any potential bedrock source. Mr. Stephen Hughes, CEO, commented: \"Nova Scotia is now on the radar, proving to be a favourable jurisdiction for the discovery of saddle-reef and vein style gold deposits, such as Atlantic Gold's Touquoy Gold Mine. Carube's SBG project area has an extensive gold in till anomaly that has not been explained, and is located in a similar geologic setting to that of other Meguma Group hosted gold deposits across the province. Till samples will be sent to Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) located in Ottawa for analysis, and we are excited that follow-up sampling will provide us more confidence on the bedrock source.\"PROJECT SUMMARYHistoric work was undertaken by Seabright Resources Inc. in the late 80's, who conducted till and soil geochemical surveys over the SBG area. Seabright collected 48 tills at approximately 1000-metre spacings along 500-metre spaced grid lines, which defined an 8,000m by 4,000m gold in till anomaly. Greater than sixty percent of the till samples assayed above 0.07g/t Au, and up to amaximim of 4.9g/t Au. Anticline and syncline structures mapped to the west of Country Harbour, are interpreted to extend onto the SBG project area based on the early mapping work of geologist E.R. Faribault. Till material will be sent to Overburden Drilling Management (ODM) located in Ottawa Ontario, where gold grains will be separated from the heavy mineral concentrates and counted, measure...
