Adriatic Metals PLC reported on recent exploration results at the company's Vares Silver Project in Bosnia & Herzegovina. Vares project exploration highlights: 21.1 metres at 576g/t AgEq or 17.8% ZnEq (296g/t Ag, 5.5% Zn, 3.7% Pb, 1.2g/t Au, 0.2% Cu, 80% BaSO4, 0.1% Sb) from 338.6 metres, including; 6.8 metres at 655g/t AgEq or 20.2% ZnEq (387g/t Ag, 6.2% Zn, 4.2% Pb, 0.8g/t Au, 0.2% Cu, 79% BaSO4, 0.1% Sb) from 339.2 metres. Rupice continues to deliver significant intercepts with a high-grade mineralized intersection from a step-out drill hole 80m northwest of the existing Rupice orebody. The drilling program at Rupice will continue with three diamond core drill rigs focused on testing the extents of the Rupice orebody, both towards the north and as well as potential down dip extensions to the south. Drilling is currently focused in the northern area surrounding the high-grade intersection encountered in drill hole BR-02-21 at Rupice. Due to the size of the step-out, it is yet to be determined whether this reported mineralisation is the extension of the previously defined Rupice orebody or a separate ore zone. The reported interval is a massive sulphide replacement of dolomitic breccia, which is fitting with the primary mineralisation style of the Rupice orebody. As announced on 19 April 2021, exploration drilling recommenced at Rupice in second quarter of 2021 with a budget of £6.8m for this year. Progress on project-wide exploration drilling has been slower than expected, primarily due to the re-deployment of resources for the DFS geotechnical drilling for the proposed surface infrastructure around the Rupice underground portal. However, this work is now nearing completion.
