VANCOUVER, CANADA – November 16, 2023 – Sable Resources Ltd. (“Sable” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SAE | OTCQB:SBLRF) is pleased to announce that field exploration activities for the 2023-2024 exploration season have commenced at the Don Julio Project in San Juan, Argentina (“Don Julio”). All exploration expenditures at Don Julio are fully funded by the Earn-In Agreement between the Company and South32 signed in 2021.
The 2023-2024 exploration season work will focus on target generation along the eastern limits of the Don Julio land package, close to the western margin of Minsud Resources Corp.’s (“Minsud”) (TSX.V:MSR) mineral claims; where Minsud and South32 recently discovered the Chinchillones breccia-porphyry target. Target generation work will include mapping, geochemistry, and an IP survey along the extension of the Chita Valley within the Don Julio properties.
Dr. Ruben Padilla, Sable’s President and CEO commented, “Targets generated in this field season will be added to the list of known porphyry targets within the Don Julio project and ranked to define drill priorities for the next drilling campaign. This field season will complete the target generation work initiated by Sable in 2018 that has proven the presence of Cu-Au porphyry centers along a newly recognized NNW lineament of Miocene porphyry systems located along the Chita Valley.”
