Nine Mile Metals Ltd. provided the certified assay results from ALS Global Labs for VMS target holes CL22-12 and CL22-13, at its initial Phase 1 drill program at its California Lake VMS Project in the world-famous Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick (“BMC”). CL22-12 (Upper Zone) 34.15m to 35.30m (1.15m width), Certified Assays (0.20% Cu, 2.64% Pb, 8.07% Zn, 78 g/t Ag & 1.38 g/t Au), CL22-12 (Lower Zone) 51.04m to 52.60m (1.56m width), Certified Assays (0.09% Cu, 4.09% Pb, 12.59% Zn, 100. g/t Ag & 1.04 g/t Au), CL22-12 (Lower Zone) 52.04m to 52.60m (0.56m width), Certified Assays (0.11% Cu, 8.66% Pb, 22.3% Zn, 172 g/t Ag & 1.63 g/t Au), CL22-13 (Lower Zone) 51.23m to 53.23m (2.0m width), and Certified Assays (0.17% Cu, 1.08% Pb, 5.64% Zn, 27.00 g/t Ag & 0.54 g/t Au).

Highlights: VMS Target Hole CL22-12 was collared approximately 75 meters northwest of discovery hole CL22-06 and drilled towards its collar, dipping – 45 degrees to a depth of 62 meters intersecting (7) zones of massive VMS mineralization between 34.15 and 52.60 meters (18.45m.) VMS Target Hole CL22-13 was drilled from the same setup as CL22-12 along the same azimuth dipping – 55 degrees to a depth of 80 meters to test the depth extension of the mineralization in CL22-12. The hole intersected (3) zones of visible massive VMS mineralization between 49.23 and 59.00 meters (9.77m). VMS mineralization in both drill holes was again dominated by Zn, mineralization, with individual sample sections up to 22.30% Zn.

(Up to 30.96% combined Pb – Zn) Pb mineralization is very fine grained and locally difficult to identify. The copper mineralization was visible, occurring as very small, 1 – 2mm. blebs of chalcopyrite best seen on cut drill core.

Ag mineralization is directly related to the presence of lead (Pb), as demonstrated by sample226239 in hole CL22-12 which assayed 8.66% Pb and 172 g/t Ag. Au also accompanies the VMS mineralization, averaging 0.86 g/t Au in the VMS sections of the 2 drill holes, the highest value assaying 1.625 g/t Au from sample 226239 (CL22-12). Both drill holes demonstrate that the mineralized zone is open in both directions along strike and depth.

Drill Holes CL22-12 and CL22-13 approached the mineralized zone from the west, both intersecting numerous zones of visible VMS mineralization, CL22-13 undercutting CL22-12 at depth. The host rocks are primarily sediments with local bands of volcanics. Mineralization is typical of the BMC with sections consisting of 95%+ sulphides including pyrite, sphalerite (Zn) galena (Pb) and locally disseminated (Cu) chalcopyrite.

The Pb, Zn mineralization suggests that initial deposition occurred along the flanks of a VMS mineralization however the dense sulphides remain intact having generally hard contacts with the surrounding sediments. Individual mineralized widths within the 10-meter section can be greater than 2.5 meters as seen in CL22-13. Pyrite mineralization is also present within the sediments.
