Winter 2020 Geophysical Surveys

Genius Metals has completed two geophysical surveys covering the area and extensions of the Lamarche prospect during the 2021 winter season. A high-resolution MAG survey, carried out by Vision4K on a 3 km x 1.7 km grid, revealed complex structural patterns of the volcanosedimentary rocks highlighted by two principal features. Highly erratic magnetic values are associated with a silicate/sulphide facies iron formation extending for 4 km along the faulted contact between the Opinaca and La Grande sub-provinces. An important Mag high lineament, oriented NE-ENE at the center of the grid and corresponding to the Au-Zn-Ag-Cu mineralization, diverges into several branches at the southwestern end ( Figure 1 ). The high-res MAG survey was followed by a 42 line-km IP Resistivity survey on the same gridlines completed by TMC Geophysics. The data revealed moderate to high linear NE-SW-oriented chargeability zones with similarly oriented IP axis ( Figure 2 ). Both the IP axis and high chargeability zones closely match the high Mag features revealed by the previous surveys and outline the mineralization found at the Lamarche prospect. A ground-based IP survey completed in 2018 covering the Goldeneye prospect also depicted chargeability anomalies.

Drilling Program on Sakami

The results of the geophysical surveys, combined with the data obtained from field exploration campaigns completed during summer and fall 2020 (prospecting, rock and channel sampling, overburden stripping and trenching), facilitated the definition of the drill targets. Genius Metals expects to have crews on the ground in the early spring to collect additional data before conducting a minimum of 2,000m exploratory diamond drilling program on the highly gold-prospective zones which include the Lamarche and Golden Eye prospects.

Goldman Sachs Bullish on Commodities, Shares 2024 Price Calls for Gold and Copper

Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) is maintaining its bullish stance on commodities as they continue to enjoy strong cyclical and structural support, and as the US and Europe move closer to cutting interest rates.

The American investment bank said it sees raw materials potentially returning 15 percent in 2024.

“We find that US rate cuts in non-recessionary environments lead to higher commodity prices, with the biggest boost to metals (copper and gold in particular), followed by crude oil,” Bloomberg quotes analysts Samantha Dart and Daan Struyven as saying in a note this past Sunday (March 24). “Importantly, the positive impact on prices tends to increase with time, as the growth impulse from looser financial conditions filters through.”
