[{"type":"text","content":"GGL Resources Receives Permit and Announces Exploration Plans for McConnell Copper - Gold Porphyry Prospect, North-Central BCVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 14, 2020 / GGL Resources Corp. (TSXV:GGL)(OTC PINK:GGLXF) (\"GGL\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has received a Notice of Work Permit from the BC Ministry of Energy, Mines & Petroleum Resources (\"MEMPR\") for exploration work on its 100% owned, road accessible McConnell property located in north-central BC. The Company plans to conduct ground geophysical surveys in August, including induced polarization (\"I.P.\") and magnetics, with follow up reverse circulation or core drilling.The 100% owned McConnell Project is located in the Golden Horseshoe region of north-central BC approximately 400 km northwest of Prince George and 22 km southeast of the past producing Kemess open pit copper-gold mine and 70 km from the former Lawyers Mine, where Benchmark Metals Inc. is currently conducting a major drill program to expand resources. The McConnell property is accessed by a road that branches off the all-season Omineca mine and hydro grid power road, which services the Kemess Mine.The property is comprised of 7,549 hectares of mineral claims that encompass a lightly explored alkaline copper - gold porphyry prospect and a better known, 12 km long shear-hosted gold target.The 2020 work program at the copper - gold porphyry zone is designed to better delineate poorly exposed mineralization which can be traced in scattered outcrop occurrences over 600 meters until it is lost beneath overburden. Limited exploration by the Company in 2018 reconfirmed the presence of a potassic-phyllic altered monzonite intrusion hosting supergene and hypogene copper-gold-silver mineralization. Rock samples returned assays of up to 20.1% Cu, 4010 ppb Au and 67.1 ppm Ag. These samples were taken from a limited exposure which was blast trenched in the 1970s by earlier explorers and yielded results of 10.97 % Cu, 0.136 oz/T Au and 2.12 oz/T Ag over 12 feet, as described in an assessment report filed with the government. The 2020 program will also build on the limited historical exploration work conducted by the Company on the porphyry target from 1991 to 2008, which included reconnaissance I.P. as well as a single drill hole. This historical I.P. survey will be infilled and expanded...
