Cranbrook - Taiga Gold Corp. ('TGC': CSE; 'Taiga') and SKRR Exploration ('SKRR': CSE) has commenced planning and permitting activity in preparation for a 1500m diamond drilling program at Taiga's 100% owned Leland project located 23 kilometers southwest of SSR Mining's Seabee Gold Operation, within the Trans Hudson Corridor of east-central Saskatchewan.

SKRR has the exclusive option to earn up to a 75% interest in the 10,761ha property by completing $3,000,000 in exploration expenditures, issuing 1,500,000 common shares and making $500,000 in cash payments to Taiga. Details of the option agreement are provided below. Taiga is operator of the program and has engaged TerraLogic Exploration Services Inc. of Cranbrook, BC to carry out the work.

2020 Work Program

The 2020 summer field program at Leland included detailed prospecting and mapping, infill and grid soil geochemical sampling, channel sampling of trenches and ground truthing of EM anomalies generated by 2019 drone survey. Work was focused on the Michelle/Irving area (channel sampling), the East Leland target area (gridded soil sampling) and the newly discovered Irvle magnetic anomaly area (prospecting and soil sampling). An ATV trail was also constructed to provide access from the main camp to the Irving and Simon showing areas. A total of 74 rock samples and 200 soil samples were collected and submitted for geochemical analyses, with results pending. The work was carried out by Terralogic Exploration services and funded by SKRR.
