Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2019) - Spearmint Resources Inc. (CSE: SPMT) (OTC Pink: SPMTF) (FSE: A2AHL5) (the "Company") is pleased to report on results of a recent sampling program on its 'NEBA' Prospects directly bordering Aben Resources Ltd. in the Golden Triangle of BC.
James Nelson, President of Spearmint stated, "We are very encouraged with the initial results on the 'NEBA' Prospects that directly border Aben Resources Ltd. in the Golden Triangle of BC. We are excited that the sampling program has returned positive results and the fact that our neighbour Aben is currently drilling on their property right beside ours. We look forward to building upon these results and Spearmint will continue to be very active in the region this summer as the mining sector continues to gain momentum with tailwinds provided by the recent appreciation in the price of gold."
The sampling survey was carried out by Apex Geoscience Ltd., on behalf of Spearmint. Of the samples collected, an anomalous gold value of 112 ppb Au (gold) was returned from a stream sediment sample. The best rock sample contained values of 2.6% Zn (zinc) and 1.9 g/t Ag (silver) from a strongly weathered and oxidized outcrop with stockwork veining.
Over the last month Spearmint has now produced positive sampling results from three separate projects in British Columbia. On July 18, 2019 Spearmint announced sampling values as high as 94 ppb Au (gold) and 391 ppm Cu (copper) from its Hammernose Prospect directly bordering the strategic alliance between Westhaven Ventures Inc. & Sable Resources Ltd. in the Spences Bridge Gold Belt of BC. On August 9, 2019 Spearmint announced sampling values as high as 264 ppb Au (gold) and 1,740 ppm Cu (copper) from its 'Golden Triangle Gold Prospects' directly bordering GT Gold Corp.
