Azarga Metals Corp. announced it has completed a ground magnetic survey at its Unkur Copper-Silver Project in the Zabaikalsky administrative region in eastern Russia, with successful results. The ground magnetic survey was a key part of the Company’s first phase exploration program at Unkur. Undertaken in parallel with the drilling and trenching works, it comprised approximately 130 line kilometers of detailed ground magnetics. While the data is still being interpreted and correlated with geology and drill results, the geophysical data confirms that the silver-copper mineralization at Unkur has a strong magnetic signature and that ground magnetics can be a useful targeting tool on the project. Significantly, the ground magnetic survey data has been useful in identifying changes in direction of the mineralized horizon, which the Company believes are associated with increased thickness and grade; and identified targets for additional mineralization to the north of the first phase drilling area. The magnetic signatures of these targets remain open to the northeast and future surveys will aim to extend them. Drilling results from Azarga Metals’ first phase exploration program at Unkur intersected significant copper-silver mineralization over a strike length of approximately three kilometers and the mineralized area remains in open in all directions as well as down dip. The newly acquired ground magnetic survey data will be used to plan drilling in the second phase exploration program with the aim to expand the mineralized area and target zones which are indicated to be thicker and higher grade.
