[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 10, 2020 / IMC International Mining Corp. (CSE:IMCX) (OTC PINK:IMIMF) (FRA:3MX) (the \"Company\" or \"IMC\") is pleased to announce that it has begun mobilizing crews to begin fieldwork on its Thane Property (the \"Property\") located in north-central British Columbia, Canada. Work on the Property has identified six areas of significant gold ± copper ± silver mineralization. Fieldwork in 2020 will focus predominantly in the Cathedral Area and will consist of ground geophysics, alteration mapping, along with rock, soil, and silt sampling, all with the purpose of delineating the best targets for drill testing. Highlights The Thane Property to date has had six areas of significant gold ± copper ± silver mineralization identified - The Cathedral, Gail, Cirque, CJL, Lake, and Mat Areas of the Property. Fieldwork this summer will encompass all Areas to some degree but will focus exploration efforts at the Cathedral Area. Phase 1 work at the Cathedral Area in 2020 will consist of a detailed ground geophysical survey centered over last year's geophysical discovery, alteration mapping, rock, soil, silt sampling, and pad building. Phase 2 work at the Cathedral Area in 2020 is expected to consist of diamond drilling to be conducted in the fall, based on the results of the above-detailed exploration work. 2020 Phase 1 Thane Exploration Program The Thane Property totals 206km2 (50,904 acres) in area and is located in north-central British Columbia. Summer and fall are generally the most attractive seasons of the year to conduct fieldwork in this region. Rugged Edge Holdings Ltd. has been contracted to provide a full-service camp facility to support IMC's 2020 work program. Field crews have been mobilized to the Property area earlier this week and are close to completing the construction of a base camp. The camp facility is constructed and managed to meet all Covid-19 procedures and protocols, reflecting guidance from the government and provincial health authorities, to provide worker safety on and off-site. Induced polarization and resistivity (\"IP/resistivity\") is a tool commonly used in mineral exploration to detect electrical chargeability and conductivity in the sub-surface. In 2019, a reconnaissance 5-line, pole-dipole, IP geophysical survey was undertaken within the Cathedral Area using an electrode...
