Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 17, 2022) - Red Metal Resources Ltd. (CSE: RMES) (OTC Pink: RMESF) (the "Company" or "Red Metal") is pleased to announce results from the 2022 geological mapping program on its Carrizal property, Region III, Chile.
The 2022 mapping and prospecting program focused on detailed mapping of veins along strike of, and to the east of the main Farellon structure with the goal of developing new drill targets. New veins mapped and sampled include the Gorda vein which was drilled in Hole FAR-22-020. The Gorda vein lies 250 metres east of the Farellon structure which was mapped and sampled along strike for a full kilometre. A further five veins were mapped and sampled in detail to develop future drill targets throughout the property.
Highlights
- A high sample return of 5.77% Cu, 1.55% Co and 0.11 g/t Au two kilometres along strike to the north of the recent drilling on the Farellon structure
- Three veins mapped in detail, each demonstrating over a kilometre of prospective strike length with mineralized grab samples
