[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 8, 2021 / Sassy Resources Corporation (\"Sassy\" or the \"Company\") (CSE:SASY)(FSE:4E7)(OTCQB:SSYRF) is pleased to announce the discovery of a multi-kilometer-long gold and copper anomaly at the Company's newly-named \"Viking\" target at Gander North adjacent to the GRUB Line in the heart of the Gander Gold District. These results, which include very high gold-in-soil assays, suggest the presence of a nearby mineralizing source. Highlights: Initial C-horizon soil geochemistry results (1,663 samples) greatly build on historic Noranda work with a coincident gold and copper-in-soil anomaly now covering the entire upper section of the Viking target over a northeast-southwest length of 4.25 km and a northwest-southeast dimension (width) of up to 1.5 km (see attached map); Significantly, this anomaly is open for expansion to a very broad area to the southeast where assay results are pending for approximately 1,000 additional soil samples, some of which were collected by GroundTruth Exploration's deep penetrating GT Probe ; Notably, in this southeast direction nearly 2 km from the initial grid is the historic \"Jonathan's Third Pond\" Copper Showing which is described in historic assessment reports as a pervasive zone of silicification and alteration with pyrite-chalcopyrite-bornite mineralization; Sassy prospectors have confirmed and extended the Jonathan's Third Pond occurrence for another kilometer toward the south-southwest where it remains open for further expansion (assays pending); Highlight C-horizon gold-in-soil results include individual samples which returned values of 1,432 ppb Au ( 1.43 g/t) and 1,154 ppb Au ( 1.15 g/t). These results are considered very high-grade for gold-in-soil in Newfoundland; C-horizon copper-in-soil samples returned values up to 245.5 ppm Cu, also considered very significant for soils in Newfoundland; The Viking target, which formed part of the option agreement with Vulcan Minerals (TSXV: VUL) announced February 12, 2021, covers 20.5 sq. km. This is still only 4% of the entire Gander North Project, underscoring the extent of discovery potential within this very prospective 490 sq. km land package owned 100% by Sassy; Plans are being discussed for RAB (rotary air blast) drilling at the Viking target in preparation for a maiden diamond drilling program.
