[{"type":"text","content":"Evrim advances the TREK 31 property in British ColumbiaVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 18, 2020 / (TSXV:EVM) Evrim Resources Corp. (\"Evrim\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to introduce its TREK 31 property in the Nechako Plateau of British Columbia. TREK 31 is a gold-rich porphyry/epithermal target located 30 kilometres northeast of New Gold Inc.'s Blackwater gold-silver deposit (year-end 2018 reserves of 8.2M ounces of gold and 60.8M ounces of silver1). The property was identified by Evrim using data from Geoscience BC's TREK initiative and staked in 2018.TREK 31 Property HighlightsTREK 31 covers one of the largest and strongest geochemical anomalies identified in Geoscience BC's $4.0 million TREK initiativeEarly exploration by Evrim has outlined a 2.3 kilometre by 900 metre gold-in-till anomaly situated down ice of a major structural break between rocks of the Stikine Terrane and magnetic rocks interpreted to be volcanic and intrusive rocks of Eocene agePotential for a Blackwater like exploration target marked by extensive quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration with identifiable geochemical and geophysical footprintsDave Groves, Vice President of Exploration for Evrim commented, \"The acquisition of TREK 31 is the result of using government funded exploration initiatives and evolving exploration models to generate new exploration targets. Blackwater-Davidson validates the presence of large gold-silver systems in the Nechako Plateau, and additional discoveries are likely using the TREK data sets and effective geochemical and geophysical programs.\"Figure 1: TREK 31 Location Map.About the TREK 31 PropertyThe 94 square-kilometre TREK 31 property is located 80 kilometres southwest of Vanderhoof and 30 kilometres east of New Gold's Blackwater-Davidson gold-silver deposit (Figure 1). TREK 31 covers ‘Target 31' from the TREK initiative - a strong, continuous area of anomalism with no specific mineral association (porphyry versus epithermal) and no known source.The Nechako plateau is a region known to host porphyry and epithermal mineral systems within rocks of the Stikine Terrane, an accreted island arc composed of volcanic and sedimentary rocks from Devonian to Jurassic age. In the Nechako Plateau, rocks of the Stikine Terrane include black shale and siltstone of Triassic age, overlain unconformably by the Hazelton Group wh...
