[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 25, 2021 / Brigadier Gold Limited (the \"Company\" or \"Brigadier\") (TSXV:BRG) (FSE:B7LM) (OTC PINK:BGADF) is pleased to announce analytical results from additional trenches across the El Placer Sur vein system at its Picachos gold-silver-copper project Sinaloa, Mexico (the \"Picachos Project\", \"Picachos\" or the \"Property\"). The Company will now focus on a complete review of phase-one exploration results at Picachos to determine next steps. Phase-one exploration at Picachos during 2020 and 2021 examined 17 different mineralized veins and included diamond drilling of 5057 metres in 50 holes, 4570 trench and rock samples, a stream sediment survey and a LiDAR topographic survey. The 3,954 hectare Picachos Property is centered over the historic \"Viva Zapata\" National Mineral Reserve, Sinaloa, Mexico. It overlaps two mineralized systems, a porphyry copper-molybdenum system hosted by a Paleocene granite-granodiorite intrusive complex, and a gold-silver vein complex comprised of both east-northeasterly trending veins (La Cocolmeca Vein System) and northwesterly trending veins (El Placer System). Phase-one Key Findings: The Project is best understood as a porphyry system with intrusion-hosted, bulk-tonnage copper exposed at 390 m elevation at Colinas sericitic breccias with molybdenum-rich stockworks exposed in country rocks between 500 and 600 metres elevation at Molly UST peripheral gold and copper-rich polymetallic veins in propylitic, argillic and sericitic altered country rocks at higher elevations in the southeastern part of the Property. The veins were historic gold-producers. The most explored of the 17 veins sampled is San Agustín which was the subject of 14 diamond drill holes and underground mine rock chip-channel samples. Further drilling and surface trenching is recommended to expand known mineralization of the veins and start exploration for bulk-tonnage Cu-Mo in the intrusion-hosted part of the porphyry system. Airborne geophysics would improve subsurface visualization of drill targets. More than 600 intercepts from underground mine chip-channel samples, surface trench samples and diamond drilling are of interest for gold, silver, lead, zinc, copper, molybdenum, tungsten, bismuth and tin. Collectively, these data are starting to define a porphyry system centered east of Colina...
