[{"type":"text","content":"Troubadour Adds a Third Highly Prospective Porphyry Target and Maiden Drill Program on Track to Start at AmarilloVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 8, 2018) - TROUBADOUR RESOURCES INC. (TSXV: TR) (the \"Company\") announces a third highly prospective drill target, the 'Cap Anomaly', identified 1.6 kilometres north of the Trench Anomaly (detailed in a Company news release dated Sept. 12, 2018) and the Company's upcoming maiden drill program, focusing on the Trench Anomaly, is on track and targeted for completion by the end of 2018.Key Highlights of the Cap Anomaly:Textbook geophysical signature of a buried metal-rich porphyry system;800m wide resistivity high capping a 400m wide strong chargeability core;Strong chargeability anomaly coincident with a complementary resistivity low; andAn overlapping Cu, Mo, Bi, Pb and Zn soil geochemical anomaly.The Cap Anomaly was identified through an expanded induced polarization (\"IP\") geophysical survey that revealed a pronounced 800m wide and 150m thick resistivity anomaly draped over and around a 400m wide strong chargeable and conductive core (refer to Figures 1 and 2). Surface outcropping of a strong silica altered quartz feldspar porphyritic intrusion has been mapped in the area with the silica flooding interpreted as the cause of the resistive anomaly. The high chargeable anomaly, fully capped and not exposed at surface, is interpreted as a textbook example of a buried mineralized core zone within a classic porphyry model.The distinct geophysical features of the Cap Anomaly combined with a high degree of silica alteration denoting the strength of the impregnating fluids, a coincident Cu, Mo, Bi, Pb and Zn soil geochemical anomaly and a favourable host rock, all indicate a highly prospective metal-rich porphyry target.\"The Amarillo Property continues to impress. It feels like every where we look there is further support for a major mineralized porphyry system underlying the property. With numerous high quality drill target areas presenting themselves our upcoming maiden drill program will focus on the most developed, the Trench Anomaly. We are clearly excited to begin drilling in the coming weeks,\" states Geoff Schellenberg, President and Director of the Company.
