Vancouver, British Columbia / December 9, 2021 – Xander Resources Inc. (“Xander” or the “Company”) (TSXV: XND) (OTCQB: XNDRF) (FSX: 1XI) is pleased to provide a corporate update and lay out its exploration plans for 2022 including its maiden drill program for its Timmins Nickel Project (the “Property”) located near Timmins, Ontario.
Deepak Varshney, Xander CEO, said, “2021 has been a year of steady progress for Xander despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. We successfully completed our maiden drill program at our Senneville Gold Project, acquired the Timmins Nickel Project, and have seen significant changes in management. We have been very active on the ground at all our projects, collecting extensive data through drilling, sampling, prospecting, and geophysical surveys. We are excited to head into 2022 with drill programs planned at 2 properties and look forward to an aggressive exploration program in the coming year.”
2021 Recap
The Blue Ribbon Property is the only property in the camp with visible gold at the surface and is within close proximity to Wallbridge Mining’s Fenelon Mine Project where the current exploration program is budgeted for $112 million and an indicated mineral estimate of 2,670,600 oz gold was recently announced (see PR dated November 9, 2021 – https://wallbridgemining.com/news/wallbridge-announces-mineral-resource-estimate-for-fenelon-and-martiniere-deposits-on-detour-fenelon-gold-trend/)
Upon executing the agreement, Xander immediately commenced with fieldwork and has already completed an initial reconnaissance visit for its maiden drilling program in 2022 (see PR dated Dec 7, 2021 – https://xanderresources.ca/news/xander-resources-completes-reconnaissance-program-at-timmins-nickel-project/).
Deepak, Adrian and James add strong public company experience as they presently are also CEOs of Usha Resources Ltd. (USHA.V), ArcPacific Resources Ltd. (ACP.V), and Ares Strategic Mining Inc. (ARES.CN).
The Company’s new QP, Andrew Tims, provides the Company with significant technical expertise, as he was the senior exploration geologist at Rainy River Resources that developed the Rainy River resource from 550,000 ounces of gold in 2005 to over six million when it was acquired by New Gold in 2013.
2022 Exploration Plans
Timmins Nickel Project
The Company is budgeting 1.5 million dollars for exploration at its Timmins Nickel Project in 2022. Exploration work will include:
Senneville Gold Project
The Company is budgeting $500,000 for exploration at its Senneville Project in 2022. Exploration work will include:
Fenelon Gold Project
The recent promising results from the Fenelon Gold Camp, particularly Wallbridge Mining’s announcement of its maiden mineral reserve estimate for their Fenelon and Martiniere deposits, has prompted the Company to accelerate its Fenelon exploration plans.
The Company intends on in the coming months to design a plan for Winter 2022 when the property is more accessible. Exploration will be focused around a showing discovered by Government geologist Jérome Remick in 1969 where a gold value of 8.5 g/t Au over 0.76 meters was reported. Two (2) drill pads have been prepared at the Site for future drilling. The Company will announce a detailed plan in 2022 upon completion of the design.
