[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Golden Sky Minerals Corp. (AUEN.V) (“Golden Sky” or “The Company”) is pleased to announce that it has commenced a 15-line kilometre geophysical induced-polarization (IP) survey at the Rayfield Target zone on its 100%-owned Rayfield Copper-Gold Property in south-central British Columbia, Canada (Figures 1 & 2). The geophysical program is designed to test the core of the 3.0 km x 1.5 km soil geochemical anomaly to a depth of up to 700 m (Figure 3). Phase 2 will consist of up to 3,000 metres of diamond drilling to test the geochemical anomalies and geophysical anomalies identified from the IP survey. The 35,000-hectare Rayfield property is located in the Quesnel Trough, British Columbia’s primary copper-producing belt, which hosts Teck Resources’ Highland Valley Mine, Imperial Metals’ Mount Polley Mine, Centerra Gold’s Mount Milligan Mine, and Kodiak Copper’s MPD Project (see Figure 1). The road-accessible Rayfield copper-gold property is located approximately 20 kilometers east of the town of 70 Mile House, British Columbia, and is accessible year-round by well-maintained service and logging roads extending from BC Highway 97. John Newell, President and CEO of Golden Sky Minerals, states: “The management, directors, and geological team at Golden Sky Minerals are pleased to announce the commencement of an IP Survey at our Rayfield property. Upon completion, we will share the valuable insights gained from this survey with the market. These insights will also be integrated into our exploration database, which already includes meticulously compiled exploration data from the past 30 months. This information will be instrumental in planning our upcoming drill program scheduled for later this year. With current record-high gold prices and a recent strong rebound in copper prices from their recent lows suggest to us that the progress and advancements made at the Rayfield Copper-Gold Project over the past two years have been and should continue to be well-timed. Our staking activities and other developments on this highly prospective district-scale property have potentially positioned us strategically to participate in stronger metals markets. Golden Sky Minerals looks forward to conducting a comprehensive range of exploration activities in the 2024 field season, includin...
