Flow Metals Corp. (CSE: FWM) (\u2018Flow Metals\u2019 or the \u2018Company\u2019) is pleased to announce a technical update on its Sixtymile Gold Project, Yukon. Recent re-logging of historic drill core has resulted in a revised structural interpretation of gold mineralization.<\/p>\n

The revised interpretation supports a fold-controlled orogenic gold model, in which:<\/p>\n

Gold-bearing quartz veins preferentially develop within competent, quartz-rich layers.
\nMineralization is structurally focused within antiformal fold geometries.
\nDeformation and veining intensify near a pre-existing ductile shear\/thrust zone, interpreted to have acted as a regional fluid conduit.<\/p>\n

Figure 1: A- Mylonitic unit displaying foliation and shear fabric parallel to the core axis; porphyroclasts exhibit west vergence, interpreted to reflect movement along the regional thrust fault. B- Light-coloured quartzitic unit with foliation inclined to the core axis. C- Crenulation cleavage developed within the heavily deformed mylonitic unit. The interval just above at 145 m contained 18.1 g\/t Au over 0.48 m.<\/p>\n

Fold Structure Identified<\/p>\n

Detailed re-logging of historic drill hole DDH-11-18 has identified a fold structure within the schist host rocks. Core observations show a systematic swing in foliation orientation consistent with a large-scale fold, interpreted to have a wavelength of approximately 100-150 metres. The highest grades in DDH-11-18 correlate with competent quartzite units proximal to well developed crenulation cleavage. This fold geometry provides a new structural framework for understanding the distribution of gold mineralization on the property.<\/p>\n

Evidence for Turbidite Protolith<\/p>\n

Re-logging also identified sedimentary features interpreted to be consistent with a metamorphosed turbidite sequence, including:<\/p>\n

Repeated fining-upward units.
\nInterlayered quartz-rich and micaceous horizons, locally carbonaceous.
\nStrong competency contrasts between quartzite and pelitic schist.<\/p>\n

These observations suggest that the schist in the target area represents a layered metasedimentary package rather than a homogeneous schistose unit. Competency contrasts between quartz-rich and pelitic layers are interpreted to strongly influence the distribution of deformation and veining.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Implications for Gold Mineralization<\/p>\n

Historic drill core indicates that gold mineralization is stronger in quartz-rich units than in adjacent schistose intervals, consistent with competency-controlled vein emplacement model.<\/p>\n

Exploration Strategy<\/p>\n

Future exploration will focus on:<\/p>\n

Structural modeling of the newly recognized fold architecture.
\nTracking quartz-rich horizons through the fold geometry.
\nTesting down-plunge continuity of mineralized zones.
\nEvaluating potential fold repetitions along the structural corridor.<\/p>\n

This refined model narrows targeting to specific structural positions where favorable host lithologies and deformation conditions coincide.<\/p>\n
