HIGHLIGHTS
- Drilling at pads MZ31, MZ32, MZ33, MZ34 and MZ39B has intersected significant lead-zinc-silver mineralization within the
Main Zone - Highlights include YKDD19-146 (12.61m true width of 13.21% lead, 20.61% zinc and 95.62 g/t silver) at pad MZ33, and YKDD19-156 (8.08m true width of 4.9% lead, 10.93% zinc and 62.58 g/t silver) at pad MZ34. These spectacular high-grade intersections occur 970 to 1,000m ENE of previously reported high-grade intercepts at pads MZ3, MZ4, MZ5 and MZ6.
- Results continue to confirm the presence of a large-scale mineralizing system within a marine sedimentary sequence of Proterozoic age
MAIN ZONE RESULTS
Assay results have been now been received from 49 holes drilled from 15 Pads. The pad locations are presented in Figure 1. Significant results are reported below in Table 1. Where noted, some of the holes presented in the table have additional intervals for which assays are still pending. These results, along with those from additional holes yet to be analyzed, will be reported when received.

As presented above, greater than 10% combined lead-zinc was intersected in drilling from pads MZ39B, MZ34, MZ33, MZ32 and MZ31. These pads are located over 370 metres of strike length, being 1250, 1000, 970, 930, and 880 metres to the ENE of pad MZ6 respectively. Holes YKDD19-155 and YKDD19-156 were the last holes drilled during the season, and both intersected significant mineralization.
YKDD19-155 was drilled at a -80 degree dip and intersected 5.83 metres (true width) of 11.41% combined lead-zinc with 38.14 g/t silver. This was at a vertical depth of nearly 360 metres. The cross section of MZ33 showing this result is presented in Figure 2 along with the 12.61 metre (true width) intercept from the -62 degree hole YKDD19-146 containing 33.82% combined lead-zinc with 95.62 g/t silver.
YKDD19-156 was drilled at a -62 degree dip and intersected 8.08 metres (true width) of 15.83% combined lead-zinc with 62.58 g/t silver. A cross section through MZ34 showing this results is presented in Figure 3.
In addition to the above, results were received from 13 holes drilled from pads MZ11, MZ12 and MZ13 which tested portions of the previously discussed dyke swarm, which we believe remobilized the massive sulphides to locations adjacent to the dyke swarm that have not yet been intersected by drilling.
The core displays numerous faults and local outcropping rocks are folded. As is the case at Broken Hill, faults and folds locally change the location of massive sulphide units. As the massive sulphides are covered by talus and glacial till and cannot be detected by ground gravity, electromagnetic, induced polarization, resistivity or magnetic geophysical surveys we have note yet been able to intersect massive sulphides in the vicinity of the aforementioned drilling from pads MZ11, MZ12 and MZ13 as well as in two holes drilled from pad 38 and one hole drilled from pad 42. Locations of these pads are presented in Figure 1.
The drill holes reported in this press release were drilled using HQ (63.5mm) diamond drill bits. The core was logged, marked up for sampling and then divided into equal halves using a diamond saw on site. One half of the core was left in the original core box. The other half was sampled and placed into sealed bags which were in turn placed into larger bags closed with security seals prior to being transported to
At CF Minerals the samples were dried prior to crushing to -10 mesh. The samples, which averaged over 3kg, were then mixed prior to splitting off 800g. The 800g splits were pulverized to -200 mesh and a 250g split was sent for assay. Quality control procedures included the insertion of coarse quartz samples to assess the sample preparation. Silica blanks were inserted along with certified reference samples. These quality control samples were each inserted approximately every 20 samples.
DISCUSSION
Drill results continue to demonstrate the extensive trend of the
The high grades being encountered clearly demonstrate the fertile nature of this large-scale system. Structural and geochemical data are being compiled in order to guide the focus of future drilling within the
