Canmine drilling hits sulphides

A drill hole on Canmine Resources’ (CDN) Fer property, northeast of Flin Flon, Man., has intersected base metal mineralization. The hole was drilled to test a newly delineated gravity anomaly.

Hole Fer-15 intersected an upper and lower mineralized zone, each of which has a massive sulphide section and an interval of sericite-sillimanite gneiss with galena. The upper zone is 13.91 ft. wide and contains a 5.5-ft.-wide sulphide-rich section grading 4.05% zinc, 0.45% copper, 0.45% lead, 0.03 oz. gold per ton and 1.29 oz. silver. The lower zone is 20.05 ft. wide and includes an 8.5-ft. sulphide-bearing section with 6.17% zinc, 1.14% copper, 0.01 oz. gold and 0.39% oz. silver.

Based on the results from the hole, the Fer zone has a known strike length of 820 ft. and is open to the northwest.

Additional drilling is further testing the coincident gravity anomaly and zone of sulphide mineralization along strike.
