UAV-MAG Airborne Geophysics Commence At Happy Cat Gold Property


VANCOUVER - Black Mammoth Metals Corporation has contracted MWH Geo-Surveys International Inc. of Reno, Nevada (MWH) to conduct a Magnetometer Survey with the use of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV-MAG) at the Company's 100% owned Happy Cat gold property in Nevada. The main objective of the surveys is to further define drill targets by identifying zones of favorable lithology, and alteration features permissive to hosting gold mineralization that may extend under shallow cover from known areas of near surface mineralization, and to identify any potentially mineralized faults. These surveys will also work towards the Company's objective of identifying the source of the near surface widespread gold mineralization that occurs in an unconformity exposed at the surface. This mineralized area lies at the basal contact of Tertiary volcanic rocks with sedimentary rocks within a 600-meter diameter circular area. Although the Happy Cat property has been drilled and trenched by prior operators, no known geophysical work has yet to be conducted aside from the larger regional geophysical surveys. The UAV-MAG is expected to commence early next week covering the entire Property area.

The UAV-MAG produces magnetic data of high accuracy and resolution due to the high data capture rate, slower flight speeds and lower altitude. The Orthophoto can produce a digital surface model of the Property with accuracy of approximately 5 cm, horizontal and vertical. The data will be processed by Integrated Geophysics Corporation of Houston, Texas, an independent geophysical firm with extensive experience handling UAV-MAG data.
