Gespeg Copper MAG and SPEC Surveys for Vortex, In Between, and Murdochville Projects Completed

Gespeg Copper (TSXV:GCR) announced that the heliborne magnetic (MAG) and spectrometric (SPEC) survey over its Vortex, In Between, and Murdochville projects in the Gaspé is finished.

As quoted in the press release:

A study of mineral deposits and occurrences across the properties indicates that pyrrhotite and magnetite (both magnetic) are frequently present in association with mineralization observed. In fact, magnetic anomalies are observed for most of these deposits/occurrences and strong anomalies are present at the depth of the main deposits of Murdochville and at the Sullipek deposit. For these reasons, the magnetic data are used to identify exploration targets. Most of the deposits and occurrences also have anomalously high potassium (K) concentrations. It is also well documented that hydrothermal systems associated with intrusive stocks may be at the origin of porphyry copper deposits, altering the surrounding rocks by potassium enrichment and creating replacement-type Cu-skarn and Cu-Manto deposits in the surrounding carbonate rocks.
