[{"type":"text","content":" 75 Zone Extended to North and South: Deepest Intersection of Visible Gold to Date at Eastern Trend ST. JOHN'S, NL / ACCESSWIRE / May 19, 2022 / Sokoman Minerals Corp. (TSXV:SIC) (OTCQB:SICNF) is pleased to report additional high-grade assays from the Moosehead Project including multiple holes from the expanding 75 Zone (Figure 1) which has now been essentially linked with the main Eastern Trend/Footwall Splay mineralization. In addition, MH-22-418, completed this week (assays pending) has intersected the deepest occurrence of visible gold to date on the property at a downhole depth of 352 m in a step-out below the current limit of mineralization in the Eastern Trend. Assay highlights include: MH-22-392 - 2.35 m of 25.58 g/t Au from 72.65 m downhole (75 Zone) MH-22-385 - 4.29 m of 14.56 g/t Au from 11.15 m downhole (Upper Eastern Trend) MH-22-366 - 1.40 m of 133.94 g/t Au from 34.95 m downhole (75 Zone) MH-22-359 - 1.00 m of 95.03 g/t Au from 19.44 m downhole (75 Zone) Tim Froude, President, and CEO of Sokoman says: \"We are pleased to be reporting results from some of the first holes from the 2022 program and to announce that the barge drill rig is back in the water and ready for an extensive 2022 campaign. We are also pleased to report that the first reconnaissance drilling in the southern half of the property, 2 km southwest of the main mineralized trends at Moosehead, and designed to test the Valentine Lake structural corridor, has returned significant gold values. Holes MH-22-379, 383, 386, 389 and 395, a five-hole fence centered roughly on the inferred location of the Valentine Lake corridor, all intersected mineralization with the best results from hole MH-22-379, that was drilled in the center of the five-hole fence. More drilling is planned for this area over the course of the summer. Most gratifyingly we note that drilling in the 75 Zone area, including assays reported today from holes MH-359, 366, and 392, has closed the gap between the 75 Zone and the Eastern Trend/Footwall Splay mineralization to approximately 50 m. Holes MH-22-359, 366, and 392 all returned excellent grades in the upper portions of the 75 Zone consistent with earlier results from the Footwall Splay, and we now believe the 75 Zone and the Footwall Splay are connected and splay off of the main Eastern Trend.\" The two land-based drills that are testi...
