[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC, April 6, 2021 /CNW/ - Etruscus Resources Corp. (CSE: ETR) (OTC: ETRUF) (FSE: ERR) (the \"Company\" or \"Etruscus\") is pleased to announce the emergence of a 10 km by 2 km highly prospective corridor known as \"Lightning Strike\" in the northwest portion of its expanded Rock & Roll claims, 13 km northwest of the Company's Black Dog VMS deposit. Located on the western side of the Eskay Camp north of the Snip mine, the Lightning Strike Corridor (the \"Corridor\") has strong potential to host various styles of high-grade precious metal mineralization. Plans are now underway to launch a major follow-up prospecting campaign covering the area, commencing this quarter, ahead of summer drilling focused on confirming a new discovery in a district known for its world class metal endowment. Lightning Strike's Upper Stuhini-Lower Hazelton geology has potential to host both VMS and epithermal mineralization; Recent geological mapping has projected the \"Red Line\" unconformity directly through the 10 km x 2 km Lightning Strike Corridor (Click Here to View Map); Multiple high-grade veining systems discovered throughout the Corridor appear to show epithermal mineralization similar to Pretium's Brucejack deposit; Many high-grade grab samples* including 25 g/t gold and 332 g/t silver at Heather Vein and 7,013 g/t silver and 12.7 g/t gold at Thunderstruck; Two newly-discovered large conductive targets along the mineralized Hurricane Zone could represent another lens in the Black Dog VMS system; and Major glacial retreat, since the most recent historic work 38 years ago, has revealed large areas of prospective red line stratigraphy. One glacier in the Corridor has retreated over 2 kilometers since 1962. (* Grab samples are selectively collected and are therefore not representative of all mineralization hosted on the property.) Hurricane/Thunderstruck Targets Multiple geological factors have aligned to give rise to two immediate high priority areas along the Lightning Strike Corridor: The Hurricane and Thunderstruck targets (refer to January 13, 2021, and January 19, 2021, news releases). Geological mapping in 2020 led by Jim Logan, who has over 30 years of B.C. Geological Survey experience in the Golden Triangle, shows that both targets are situated near the \"Red Line\" Stuhini-Hazelton unconform...
