Great Atlantic Resources (GR.V) has begun a prospecting and rock geochemical sampling program at the Flume Ridge mineral claim, which is part of its southwest New Brunswick tin-tungsten project.
The Flume Ridge mineral claim is one of seven mineral claims in southwest New Brunswick, and were acquired by Great Atlantic last year. Prospecting work is being concentrated on the southwest area of the claim, a statement said.
At least 16 rock samples collected in 2020 in this part of the claim were reported to return tungsten values greater than 3,,000 parts per million, including two samples that were reported to return 13,000 ppm tungsten.
