Mitchall Mines & Minerals Ltd. Hits High Grades at Sunbreaker Cove, Alberta Mitchall Mines & Minerals Ltd. Hits High Grades at Sunbreaker Cove, Alberta
Mitchall Mines & Minerals Ltd.'s majority owned Sunbreaker Cove project in Alberta, Canada have identified high-grade intercepts from areas that were below current resource boundaries and from previously unexplored zones around the existing deposits at the project.
Some of the most positive drill highlights included 37.6 meters of 3.18 grams of gold per ton from an area named Joker's Lake at a vertical depth of 210 meters. This drill hole was drilled near the eastern boundary of the area and returned four high-grade sub-intercepts within the 37.6 meter interval within and outside of the resource boundaries.
Additional high-grade results from an area named Long Run Ridge includes nearly 7 meters of 11.22 grams of gold per ton at 165 vertical meters from an area 275 meters east from the project's main mineralized area.
Mitchall Mines & Minerals' geology team is currently identifying additional drill targets in the Joker's Lake area, which they anticipate to have conclude by the fourth quarter.
Deeper drilling within the Long Run Ridge zone hit 4.35 meters of 12.76 grams of gold per ton at a depth of 220 meters, 47 meters north of a prior intercept. According to the company, the result suggests strong continuity of high-grade mineralization down to a depth of 440 meter.
"There drill results continue to showcase significant increases of potential resources at the Sunbreaker Cove project," said Sherman Darnell, the Chief Operations Officer of Mitchall Mines and Minerals Ltd.
"Of all the results released so far represent only approximately 45% of our fully funded 31,000-meter program, and with four drill rigs now operating at the project, we look forward to releasing additional updates as we continue to drill test high potential targets over the coming months," added Sherman Darnell.
To date, Mitchall Mines & Minerals Ltd. have drilled 6,400 meters in 33 holes as part of the company's ongoing 31,000-meter drill program with assays pending for 18 of these drill holes.
