[{"type":"text","content":"Silver Spruce Signs Contract with Quantec Geoscience for SPARTAN MT Ground Geophysical Survey on Melchett Lake VMSBEDFORD, NS / ACCESSWIRE / January 6, 2021 / (TSXV:SSE) - Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the signing of a geophysical services contract with Quantec Geoscience (\"Quantec\") to conduct a SPARTAN Magnetotelluric (\"MT\") Survey on its Melchett Lake Zn-Cu-Au-Ag volcanogenic massive sulphide (\"VMS\") project, an advanced precious and base metal project in the Thunder Bay Mining District, northern Ontario, Canada (the \"Property\"). The Property lies 110 km north of Geraldton and 60 km north of Nakina at 50°45' north latitude and 86°59' west longitude.\"We are excited to move forward with Quantec to perform a deep penetrating ground geophysical survey over the Relf Lake target area of the Property,\" said Greg Davison, Vice-President Exploration and Director of Silver Spruce. \"The target area, shown below, has extensive soil and rock geochemical anomalies, known VMS mineralization from surface to >500 metres depth, highly favorable core alteration style and intensity, increasing Cu to Zn with depth, and deep Maxwell modelled plates off-hole from two downhole EM surveys. With personal and successful experience using Quantec's IP and MT surveys to identify, and confirm by drilling, high grade polymetallic deposits in Ontario, I am confident that the new deep 2D and 3D data inversions will provide high quality resistivity mapping and reinforce our vectoring to VMS targets.\"Quantec's SPARTAN MT system provides a unique and effective method for obtaining deep resistivity over a variety of terrains. As leaders in MT acquisition, with proven expertise spanning more than 20 years, Quantec provides surveys globally with safe acquisition procedures, premium quality data and expert interpretation for exploration and mine planning.Quantec crews carry out SPARTAN MT surveys in Ontario providing services under strictly adhered to the corporate and client COVID-19 safety protocols.The full MT survey will include a total of 150-180 deep search geophysical soundings on 3.5 kilometre north-south lines with 250 metre spacing along and between lines over the area shown on the Property map and Survey Grid image. The survey specification is focused on data gathered from surface to 1500 me...
