[{"type":"text","content":"Airborne VTEM(TM) Survey Confirms Geochemical Survey and Geological Mapping of Casa’s Pitman Gold, Copper, Silver and Zinc DiscoveriesVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 29, 2019 / Casa Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: CASA, FRANKFURT: 0CM, OTC: CASXF) (the \"Company\" or \"Casa\") in September 2018 completed a 223 km airborne VTEM™ and magnetic survey of its Pitman property located east of Terrace, B. C. Casa is pleased to announce that the survey data displays a large conductive (up to 25 ohm-m) near-surface mass in parts of the property that were previously identified by geological mapping, surface sampling and geochemical analyses as potentially valuable gold, silver and base metal occurrences. The conductivity range of this unit, 0.44 to 25 ohm-metres, is consistent with that of sulphide mineral occurrences. The surface expression of the geophysical anomaly is approximately 2.3km x 1.4km and includes the areas of the Golden Dragon and Dragon Tale discoveries that were announced earlier (New Releases Oct. 16 and Dec. 12, 2018).https://www.casaminerals.com/projects/pitman-paddy-mac/3d-video/(To view the full-size image, please click here) The VTEM™ (Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic) geophysical survey method transmits electrical impulses into the ground, followed by measurement of the rate of decay of the electrical signal. Sulphide mineral occurrences generally are more strongly conductive relative to most rock formations.3D conductivity modeling of the Golden Dragon and Dragon Tale occurrences is shown in the accompanying drawing.

Exploration has included geological, geochemical and geophysical surveys, including a late season 2018 airborne VTEM™ electromagnetic and magnetic survey of the entire property. Mapping and geochemistry have confirmed and expanded the historic information.The Golden Dragon was discovered in 2018 (News Release 16/10/18) and is situat...
