[{"type":"text","content":"SKRR Exploration Inc. to Drill the Manson Bay Gold Project, Saskatchewan & CEO to Attend Beaver Creek Precious Metals SummitVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 2, 2021) - SKRR Exploration Inc. (TSXV: SKRR) (OTC Pink: SKKRF) (FSE: B04Q) (\"SKRR\" or the \"Company\") announces that it will commence drilling on or about September 15, 2021 on the 100% owned Manson Bay gold project (the \"Manson Bay Project\") located in the Trans Hudson Corridor in east-central Saskatchewan, approximately 40km northwest of the historic mining center of Flin Flon, on the Manitoba border. The Manson Bay Project consists of 13 mineral claims compromising a total of approximately 4,293 hectares.The Company has approved a $1,000,000 budget to explore the Manson Bay Project for late summer - fall of 2021. The program includes an airborne VTEM \"Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic\" survey, a 1700m 9-hole drill program as well as mapping, prospecting and soil grid surveying. 2021 Manson Bay Drill ProgramQB Drilling has been contracted to conduct a 1700m, 9-hole NQ core drill program at the Manson Bay Project. The primary focus of the drilling will be to test the historic Manson Bay Gold Zone, where historic drilling by HudBay Minerals (1985) and MinGold Resources (1987-88) outlined the Manson Bay Gold Zone, with highlights such as drill hole MBO-15 intersected 15.39 g/t Au over 10.03m including a high-grade interval of 23.13 g/t Au over 6.40m. Drill targets are still being finalized, but it is expected that seven (7) holes will test within the known Manson Bay Gold Zone, with the aim to confirm and expand upon historic results, and two (2) step-out holes contingent on results from the summer mapping and soil geochemistry surveys.The 2021 Manson Bay drilling targets are based on a comprehensive compilation and modelling of all available data including historic drilling, and from the recent fieldwork completed by SKRR.2021 VTEM Airborne SurveyGeotech Ltd. has been contracted to conduct a 223 line-km, 100m line space, VTEM helicopter supported airborne survey to be flown over areas of the property which will compliment and tie in to historic VTEM survey flown in 2008. The VTEM survey allows for the simultaneous measurement of chargeability, conductivity and magnetic susceptibility in underlying bedrock beneath overburden and lake cover....
