Giga Metals provides Turnagain project update

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mark Jarvis, CEO of Giga Metals Corp. (TSX.V: GIGA, OTCQX: GIGGF) announced today that the company is in receipt of a report and exploration recommendations by Dr. Stephen Beresford regarding the potential for high grade mineral targets within the Turnagain ultramafic complex.

“We wanted to get fresh eyes on our data,” said Mr. Jarvis. “We have 383 drill holes totalling 97,361 meters, several geochem surveys and geophysical surveys, and other data, but more than 80% of the Turnagain complex remains unexplored or underexplored. I am excited about the opportunity to work with Dr. Beresford, who is in the top tier of nickel exploration geologists worldwide.”

“My mandate was to evaluate the prospectivity of potential high grade targets within the mineralized system and to recommend an exploration program that would focus on these targets,” said Dr. Beresford. “My conclusion is that there are several target types in play. One important target is a potential Volkovsky type massive copper sulfide magnetite deposit in the Attic zone. Another target is semi massive sulfide Brecia pipes within the Attic and Bench zones, similar to Giant Mascot and Aguablanca. These and other target types should be evaluated with a gravity survey, ground based EM and drilling.”

Historical magnetic survey data is being reprocessed to better define the geometry of the intrusive and to help design a gravity survey.
