The objective of this additional drilling is to evaluate the potential extension of the polymetallic mineralization zone, that returned 2.23 % Cu, 0.11% Zn, 8.30 g/t Ag and 0.20 g/t Au over 1.0 meter, in hole 163-15-015, located within the Normetal Mine Horizon (NMH). This mineralization is hosted within a highly chloritized stratabound unit of tuffeceous material located between a unit of rhyolite and a unit of andesite of the NMH at the same stratigraphic position of the former producer Normetal Mine (historical lifetime production of 10.1 MT (at) 2.15% Cu, 5.12% Zn, 0.55 g/t Au and 45.25 g/t Ag) situated at less than 3 km to the East of the property.
This new phase of work will consist of at least 2 drill holes totalling around 1,100 meters that will be testing at depth and laterally the mineralized intersect of hole 163-15-015 based on the geological and downhole geophysics interpretation done by Agnico Eagle exploration team.
