[{"type":"text","content":"Gaia Metals Corp. Mobilizes Field Crews to the Freeman Creek Gold Property, Idaho, USAVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 12, 2020 / Gaia Metals Corp. (the \"Company\") (TSXV:GMC)(OTCQB:RGDCF)(FSE:R9G) is pleased to announce that field crews have mobilized to the Freeman Creek Property (the \"Property\") to carry-out a Phase I surface exploration program that will lay the foundation for the subsequent Phase II drill program. The Property is located approximately 15 km northeast of Salmon, in the State of Idaho, USA, and is accessible via paved highway and a network of gravel roads and trails.The Phase I surface program will include the following components:Verification of historical drill collar, adit, and open-cut locationsProperty-wide prospecting and rock samplingProperty-wide ground magnetic surveySoil sample grid extending across the Gold Dyke ProspectThe Property hosts two major advanced targets; the Gold Dyke Prospect, with an historical drill intercept of 1.5 g/t Au and 12.1 g/t Ag over 44.2 m (RDH 8), and the Carmen Creek Mine Prospect, with an historical outcrop sample assay of 14.15 g/t Au, 63 g/t Ag, and 1.2% Cu. Both prospect areas have seen sporadic exploration since the early 1900s, which includes high-grade Au-Ag samples of various outcrop and open-cuts as well as the completion of several adits (see news release dated June 4th, 2020). In the 1980s, several exploratory reverse circulation drill holes were completed at the Gold Dyke Prospect with many encountering near surface zones of anomalous gold mineralization, highlighted by the intersections in drill holes RDH 8 (above) and RDH 10 (1.7 g/t Au and 17.1 g/t Ag over 21.3 m). Strong grades of Cu, Pb, and Zn have also been reported, although were inconsistently assayed for.The objective of the Phase I program is to verify these historical (i.e. pre-GPS era) drill collar, adit, and open-cut locations and to expand upon the surface mineralization that has been documented as far back as 1904. The soil sampling and magnetic survey will further aide with geological interpretation and trends over the target areas. Collectively the dataset derived from the Phase I surface exploration will orient the Phase II drill program anticipated to occur this fall.Further in this regard, with the surface program now underway, the Company is actively planning the Phase II drill pro...
