Cloudbreak Discovery Plc
("Cloudbreak" or the "Company")
Cloudbreak Completes First Programme at the Foggy Mountain Project
Cloudbreak Discovery Plc (LSE: CDL), a leading natural resources project
generator with a particular focus on commodities key to the energy transition,
is pleased to announce that it has completed a reconnaissance surface
programme at the Foggy Mountain Project (the "Property") in the Toodoggone
region in north central British Columbia, located immediately east of the past
producing Kemess Mine. The Property was initially generated and staked in
April 2022.
Programme Highlights:
· Confirmed three of the four historic mineral occurrences (the fourth
minfile area was not visited in 2022)
· Seven grab samples assayed >1% copper (Cu)
· Completed prospecting and mapping across the central portion of the
Property
Kyler Hardy, CEO of Cloudbreak Discovery, commented, "These encouraging
results seen at one our early-stage targets demonstrate how Cloudbreak can
generate interesting ideas with potentially significant exploration upside for
our partners. British Columbia remains a globally significant source of copper
with many valid unexplored or under-explored targets.
"With Foggy Mountain located at the south end of the Toodoggone region, the
project is well situated, lying on trend with several past-producers, and has
mineralization which has been described as comparable to that of Kemess. Our
focus is now on identifying a partner to further explore Foggy Mountain and if
successful, develop the project to its full potential."
About Foggy Mountain
The Foggy Mountain Project covers 4,209.96 hectares, is roughly
northwest-southeast trending, and comprises three claim blocks. It is located
at the southern end of the Toodoggone Camp, in north central British Columbia,
near Thutade Lake approximately 250 kilometres ("km") north of Smithers and
430 km northwest of Prince George. The Toodoggone camp is denoted by a series
of northwest trending structures cutting Paleozoic through Mesozoic
sedimentary, volcanic and intrusive rocks. The Property lies along a
mineralized corridor containing several past producers, including Shasta,
Baker, Lawyers and Kemess South.
The property geology is comprised of early Cretaceous to early Jurassic
granodiorite and monzodiorite intrusions, Stuhini group sediments and volcanic
rocks, and Asitka group Permian to Devonian limestone. These units are cut by
a series of northwest-trending steeply dipping strike-slip faults. Sampling
has identified multiple showings where mineralization is associated with
quartz, quartz-carbonate, or massive sulphide veins or on the Property.
Several mineralized outcrops were observed to be semi-massive to massive
sulphide skarn in limestone. The other pertinent style of mineralization
observed was comprised of fine grained disseminated pyrite with anomalous
precious metal content in altered volcanic and intrusives.
Of particular note is the alteration in the intrusive rocks (granodiorite and
diorite) showing quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration. Multiple mineralizing
events are manifested in these veins and range in composition from
quartz-pyrite (+/-magnetite, chalcopyrite, molybdenite and gold) and
pyrite-chalcopyrite (+/-gold). In addition, host rocks contain disseminated
mineralization. The overall style of mineralization is similar to that
observed at Kemess South, which produced 2.978 million ounces of gold and 794
million pounds of copper during its thirteen year production life.
