[{"type":"text","content":" ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, March 2, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - X-Terra Resources Inc. (TSXV: XTT) (FRANKFURT: XTR) is pleased to announce that its 2020 drill exploration program on the Grog and Northwest properties, located in Restigouche county, New Brunswick is now complete. A total of 1,904 metres over 16 holes has been drilled under this program. The program has exceeded X-Terra Resources' expectations, as all geological targets have revealed very encouraging visual indicators of significant alteration and mineralization in different contexts related with the MacKenzie Gulch Fault. The table below sets-out highlights on the 5 targets that have now been drilled. Sectors of interest Observations Mineralization type NorthWest NWST-20-002, NWST-20-003 Orogenic gold bearing quartz veins systems in sediments Dyke Swarm GRG-20-001, GRG-20-002 Close to feldspathic dykes contacts: reworked hydrothermal breccia with pyrite stringers over 2 to 5 metres intervals. Hosted in a sequence of fine grains sediments including limy graphitic shales and sandstone. Dykes related skarns and sediments hosted stockwork Bellevue North GRG-20-003, GRG-20-004, GRG-20-005, GRG-20-010 Carbonate-quartz stockwork associated with arsenopyrite-pyrite dissemination over 5 to 20 metres intervals. Strong, carbonate – micas alteration. Lamprophyres dykes observed. Hosted in fine grain sandstone and conglomerate sequence, in contact with a limy graphitic shale. Stockworks and replacement in sediments Bellevue South GRG-20-006, GRG-20-007, GRG-20-008, GRG-20-009 Carbonate-quartz stockwork, sulfidized shear zones, siliceous replacement over metric intervals associated with arsenopyrite-pyrite dissemination over 5 to 20 metres intervals. Strong, carbonate alteration. Shear zones affecting in conglomerate-sandstone-siltstone sequence. In contact with distal skarns and hornfels. Stockworks and replacement in sediments Grog GRG-20-011, GRG-20-012, GRG-20-013 Pluri-metric pyritized intervals associated with geodic quartz veining. Centered on clay rich alteration, surrounded by siliceous halos. Hosted in a conglomerate-sandstone sequence interlayered with graphitic mudstone. Epithermal veining and replacement in sediments. Detailed Highlights: The three areas drilled are separated by 3.8 kilometres following a north to north-east trend enclosed in a sequence of relatively coarse grain...
