NINE MILE Metals Ltd. announced it has received certified assays for drill hole WD-24-07 at the Wedge VMS Drill Target situated in the renowned Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick (BMC). WD-24-07 was collared on the northeastern flank of the Wedge deposit, 20.00m east of WD-24-02, and drilled at an azimuth of 160 degrees with a dip of -50 degrees to a total depth of 159.00m. The drill hole successfully intersected continual base metal mineralization between 116.00m and 156.32m (40.32m) assaying 1.20% Cu, 0.18% Pb, 0.88% Zn, 0.12 g/t Au, and 8.00 g/t Ag, with a Copper Equivalent (Cu-Eq) of 1.65%.

Visual inspection while logging core was not so optimistic about high-grade copper over long widths since the core displayed predominantly dark pyritic mineralization. However, this further demonstrates the hidden upside of the unmined extensions of the Wedge Mine Area. The BHEM survey, along with the 3D analysis of the Cominco surface drill holes (including 2024 drill holes in new areas) will give a very detailed picture of the subsurface areas of conductivity and mineralization.

The digitization of the CominCo surface drill holes (73 DDHs) has been completed (assays and lithology) and is being verified, including the survey data. An additional 110 underground drill holes (assays and lithology). An additional 110 underground drill holes ("assays and lithology) have also been coded for inclusion in the model.

The company should receive the completed package this week and will then forward it to EarthEx for processing. This drill program continues to solidify the eastern flank extension of the historic mine as a viable source of unmined new ore.
