Yukoterre Announces Results From its Phase 1 Exploration Program at the Division Mountain Property
June 25 2020 - 3:48PM
YUKOTERRE RESOURCES INC. (“
Yukoterre”) (CSE:YT),
is pleased to announce the results of its Phase 1 exploration
program at the Division Mountain Property located 90 kilometers
north-northwest of Whitehorse in southwestern Yukon Territory (the
“
Phase 1 Exploration Program”) as recommended and
outlined in the NI 43-101 Technical Report of Yukoterre dated June
4, 2019 (the “
Technical Report”).
The objective and goal of the Phase 1
Exploration Program was to examine areas that could identify
possible extensions of known coal extents. In the second half of
2019, Yukoterre completed all of its exploration objectives as
recommended in the Technical Report, including primarily an
extensive trenching program at the southeastern end of the proposed
Pit 4. Reconnaissance mapping in the southwestern portion of
the Division Mountain Property where coal seams were previously
reported were also conducted, but failed to identify any presence
of coal in that area (See figure 1).

Five trenches were completed in the southeastern
area of Pit 4, of which four encountered coal seams (See figure 1)
that were of wider intervals at surface than noted in other areas
examined. Coal samples were collected from each of the four
trenches in one meter sections for testing and currently stored in
Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. The Phase 1 Exploration Program
expanded the known coal extents for an additional 50 meters in
width and in excess of 150 meters in strike length at surface.
Additional work was also performed to removed old camp buildings to
reclaim the site at the Division Mountain Property. The Phase 1
Exploration Program was completed on-budget.
Since the completion of the Phase 1 Exploration
Program, management has been reviewing the results from the Phase 1
Exploration Program to determine further exploration targets for
coal deposits and the economic viability of commercializing the
Division Mountain Property, especially in light of the current
COVID-19 pandemic as well as market conditions. Due to the vast
area at the Division Mountain Property, there remains additional
areas at the Division Mountain Property that hold the potential for
further expansion of coal mineralization that remain
unexplored.
