November 19, 2018 / TheNewswire / Vancouver, BC - Black Tusk Resources Inc. ("Black Tusk" or the "Company) (C:TUSK) is pleased to provide an update on sample processing being undertaken for samples obtained during the fall trenching program.
In October, the Black Tusk exploration crew obtained 7 large volume (30-90 Kg) samples from 4 areas of trenching, to be submitted for bench test scale metallurgical studies. Samples were submitted to Met-Solve Laboratories Inc. located in Langley, BC. (see news release dated October 30, 2018).
Met-Solve has provided a timing update for the large-volume sample processing. Gravity separation test-work on 2 of the samples has been completed, with the remainder to be completed by next week. The samples require assaying to provide the final compiled gold content. This may require a further week for completion.
In addition to the larger samples, 10 normal sized rock samples were taken from prospective outcrops and trenches along the 800 metre corridor. These samples were shipped to MS Analytical located in Langley, BC. Results from analysis of these samples are expected in the coming weeks.
