[{"type":"text","content":"Big Dougie Capital Corp. Announces Results of Preliminary Investigations Including Assays of 12.5-16.3 g/t Gold + 3.7-13.7% Copper and Significant Cobalt Results at Its Coba SW PropertyCALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / November 16, 2020 / Big Dougie Capital Corp. (\"Big Dougie\" or \"the Corporation\") (TSXV:STUV) is pleased to announce the results of the first stage investigations carried out on its Coba SW property (the \"Property\"). The first stage investigations were intended to confirm flooding levels in the 2 shafts present on the Property and obtaining samples from within those shafts for assaying.A) North and South Shaft InvestigationsThe water level in the north shaft was encountered at 83 meters below the collar while the south shaft was dry to 119 meters below the collar where the shaft was blocked. Given the fact that the north shaft collar elevation is 12 meters higher than the south shaft collar, the conclusion that flooding in the north shaft workings was caused by surface waters and is probably temporary, has been confirmed.The level of mineral oxidation observed in the upper levels of the north shaft extends down to 30m. Below this level, a zone of mixed oxides plus secondary sulphides, mainly chalcocite, was encountered to 50m. Below 50m, the mineralization encountered down to the water level at 83 metres consisted of mainly primary chalcopyrite, bornite and enargite.The level of mineral oxidation observed in the upper levels of the south shaft extends down to 75m. Below 75m, the mineralization encountered to the blockage at 119m consists of mainly primary chalcopyrite, bornite, enargite and local chalcocite.B) Shaft Sampling ProgramDuring the shaft evaluations, rock chip samples were taken across the 1.5 - 3.4 m wide vein system exposed in pillars and drift faces on most of the accessible levels. Samples collected from both the north and the south shaft workings were taken from the mineral zones encountered.The assay results from that sampling program are as follows:North Shaft rock samples from the upper mixed oxide/secondary sulphide zone assayed 2.2 - 13.7 g/t gold, 1.2 - 13.7% copper, 3.0 - 25.0 g/t silver and 0.1 - 0.27% cobalt.Samples taken from the deeper primary sulphide zone assayed 3.3 - 12.5 g/t gold, 1.1 - 6.8% copper, 2.0 - 21.0 g/t silver and 0.06 - 0.27% cobalt over 1.5 - 2m widths.South Shaft rock sa...
