[{"type":"text","content":"ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland and Labrador / Sep 28, 2021 / Business Wire / Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SIC) (OTCQB: SICNF) (the “Company” or “Sokoman”) is pleased to announce that ongoing Phase 6 drilling at the 100%-owned Moosehead Property in central Newfoundland has intersected additional high-grade gold mineralization at both the Lower Eastern Trend and in the 75 Zone, located approximately 100 m along strike south of the main Eastern Trend. (Note: see full table of results, plan map and long section for the 75 Zone and the Eastern Trend further in this release. Not all previous intersections appear on section.) Highlights of the recently-received rush assays (including total pulp metallics) include: MH-21-234: 30.59 g/t Au over 2.75 m (within 4.80 m of 17.56 g/t Au) from the 75 Zone MH-21-243: 32.72 g/t Au over 1.70 m (within 9.20 m of 6.70 g/t Au) from the 75 Zone MH-21-215: 36.15 g/t Au over 0.35 m (within 2.35 m of 20.39 g/t Au) from the Eastern Trend MH-21-229: 18.41 g/t Au over 2.10 m (within 5.10 m of 7.64 g/t Au) from the Eastern Trend The Company is also pleased to announce that reconnaissance drilling testing for the source of gold-bearing boulders, discovered earlier this year 300 m to the east of North Pond (see July 6, 2021 news release), has intersected a significant structure (named the 253 Zone), featuring strong quartz veining and variable sulphide mineralization, mainly pyrite and arsenopyrite. Assays are pending and additional drilling is planned. Tim Froude, President and CEO of Sokoman, says: “We are extremely pleased with the progress of Phase 6 with approximately 19,000 m remaining to be drilled this year. Today’s results give strong support to the growth potential of the 75 Zone with the drilling suggesting that the 75 Zone is linked to the larger Eastern Trend to the north. Our goal is to verify this connection by drilling step-out holes to the north and also down-plunge to test the zone at depth. \"The barge-based component of Phase 6 has started, and the first hole has been completed without any issues with drilling to continue until freeze-up, expected to be in late November / early December. At least 5,000 m of drilling is planned to test the Upper Eastern Trend and Footwall Splay targets where previous drilling has given some of our best holes to date including earlier Phase 6 hole MH-21-115 that ...
