Black Tusk to Drill Phase 1-Minimum 1000 Metres on the McKenzie East Gold Project, Val-D’Or, Quebec

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 20, 2020 / Black Tusk Resources Inc. (“Black Tusk” or the “Company) (CSE:TUSK)(OTC PINK:BTKRF)(Frankfurt:0NB) is pleased to announce that the company’s exploration team are in the process of developing primary drill targets on their 100-per-cent-owned McKenzie East Gold Project, located near Val d’Or, Quebec. The targets will be tested by diamond drilling.

The Phase 1 drilling program will consist of a minimum 1,000-metres of diamond drilling, with the initial 5 drill holes targeting depths between 200 to 300 metres downhole. Phase 1 is designed to test the mineralization potential of several gold targets that occur within the northwestern section of the 1,676-hectare property.

The company has acquired a permit that allows for the construction of 18 drill pads spread over the property. The phase one drill program is expandable as the company continues to review data for additional targets for testing if the decision is made to increase the drilling meterage.

“A 1,000-meter diamond drill program is an excellent start to our goal of conducting multiple drill programs at McKenzie East in 2020. The success of this program, along with continued review of the project database, may define targets that could expand the scope of this initial campaign,” states CEO, Richard Penn.
