[{"type":"text","content":"Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Murchison Minerals Ltd. (the “Company”) (CSE: MUR) is pleased to provide a project update on its recent exploration at Brabant-McKenzie high grade zinc-copper project (the “Project”) located in North-Central Saskatchewan. Project Update Highlights 1. Initial modeling and interpretation of the Anomaly C and D 2017 ground SQUID electromagnetic (“EM”) and magnetic (“Mag”) survey (see press release February 21, 2017) and the 2011 VTEM and Mag airborne survey (the “Data”) have: Confirmed EM Anomaly C as a conductive body and drill target measuring 1.4 km strike by 1.3 km depth beginning 260 m from surface Identified EM Anomaly D is as a strongly conductive body of size having a 1 km strike and in excess of 2 km depth, beginning 145 m from surface Defined and upgraded two regional anomalies, the TOM2 and Priority 3, as significant geophysical targets (See Figure 1) 2. Recent geological prospecting programs have identified chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite sulphide mineralization proximal to: The surface projection of the modeled EM Anomaly D conductor The TOM2 and Priority 3 VTEM and Mag airborne anomalies (the “Anomalies”) 3. The combination of: The modeled EM Anomaly D conductor dimensions and its proximity to mineralized outcrops presents the potential for the existence of a sulphide body of size The proximity of TOM2 and Priority 3 to mineralization present the potential for additional massive sulphide bodies at both targets Based on the identification of mineralization in relation to these geophysical anomalies, the Company has staked an additional 1,873 ha of land adjacent to its current claims package. The Company plans to conduct additional ground EM and Mag surveys on Anomaly D and the Anomalies in October in order to better define their size and geometries. Results from these surveys will be used to effectively design diamond drill programs to test these targets. President and CEO, Kent Pearson, stated: “The discovery of sulphide mineralization all within the areas of the geophysical anomalies is significant in that it provides potential evidence of a mineralizing syste...
