Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 22, 2024) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) (FSE: M1C1) (the "Company" or Metals Creek) is pleased to announce the results from the first hole of the recently completed (See News Release: September 17, 2024) diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project located in Currie Township, 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario and approximately 45 km from the Kidd Creek Met site.
安大略省雷灣--(資訊公司-2024年10月22日)--礦業溪資源公司(tsxv: MEK)(fse: M1C1)(以下簡稱"公司"或礦業溪)很高興地宣佈2024年9月17日新聞發佈的Tillex銅項目最近完成鑽探計劃的第一孔鑽孔的結果,該項目位於安大略省蒂明斯東65公里的柯里鎮,距kid溪金屬場約45公里。
TX24-021 targeted near surface, mineralized graphitic argillites and dacitic tuffs in an effort to upgrade areas of limited drilling and further refine the current geological model. Hole TX24-021 was engineered to infill a gap in the central portion of the Tillex Zone on a section where no holes have been drilled with the purpose of increasing our confidence in the continuity of mineralization. This hole returned a down hole intercept of 63.9 meters (m) (38.6m to 102.5m) of 1.94% Copper (Cu) and 10.22 grams per tonne (g/t) Silver (Ag) (See Fig.1: Schematic Cross Section). Included in this interval is two higher grade intervals of 3.21% Cu and 4.77g/t Ag over 15.2m (54m to 69.2m) and 2.58% Cu and 15.88g/t Ag over 17.9m (83.6m to 101.5m). Higher grade silver was also intercepted with a downhole intercept of 32.95 g/t Ag and 1.70% Cu over 6.0m (43m to 49m). See Table 1 Drill intercepts for TX24-021 below.
TX24-021針對近地表、含礦石石墨片岩和流紋岩,旨在提升有限鑽探區域的升級並進一步細化當前地質模型。鑽孔TX24-021旨在填補Tillex區域中心部分缺口,該區域未進行任何鑽孔,旨在增強我們對礦化連續性的信心。本孔從井底截獲了63.9米(3860萬至102.5米)的1.94%銅(Cu)和10.22克/噸(g/t)銀(Ag)(見圖1:示意剖面圖)。在此間隔內包括兩個較高品位間隔,分別爲3.21% Cu和4.77克/噸Ag在1520萬(5400萬至69.2米)以及2.58% Cu和15.88克/噸Ag在1790萬(8360萬至101.5米)。還截獲了較高品位銀,下列井下攔截截獲了32.95克/噸Ag和1.70% Cu在600萬(4300萬至49米)。查看下錶1關於TX24-021的鑽孔攔截。

Mineralization consists of locally very fine, pervasive disseminated chalcopyrite, cross-cutting chalcopyrite stringers as well as local blebby style to narrow massive chalcopyrite veins with local pyrite and pyrrhotite. Galena and sphalerite is also present locally. Alteration consists mainly of chlorite and locally pervasive clay alteration. The mineralized argillites within the Tillex Deposit are structurally complex with significant folding and fracturing. Mineralized feldspar porphyry is also present within the argillites further adding to the exploration potential to the Tillex Copper Project. Copper assays within the porphyry ranged from 0.32 to 1.44%.
礦化包括局部非常細微的石英黃銅礦、穿越石英黃銅礦脈的黃銅礦脈,以及風化方式爲小氣泡狀至狹窄塊狀的硫黃銅礦脈與局部黃鐵礦和磁黃鐵礦。 當地還存在方鉛礦和閃鋅礦。變質作用主要由綠泥石和局部瀰漫性粘土變質構成。直到Tillex礦牀內的礦化泥頁岩在構造上非常複雜,具有重要的褶皺和斷裂。礦化長石閃長巖也存在於泥頁岩中,進一步增加了對Tillex銅項目的勘探潛力。 閃長巖內的銅含量範圍從0.32%到1.44%。
Included in this release is several previously released drill core photos' (See news release September 17, 2024) highlighting the different styles of chalcopyrite mineralization encountered in this program. The reader is cautioned that these photos are for illustration purposes highlighting the different styles of mineralization and do not represent mineralization through the entirety of the holes.
此次發佈中包含了之前發佈的幾張鑽孔核心照片(請參閱2024年9月17日的新聞稿),突出了該項目中遇到的不同石英黃銅礦化風格。讀者應注意,這些照片僅用於突出不同礦化風格的示意,並不代表整個鑽孔中的礦化。
Management is highly encouraged with the results from this first hole received and anxiously await results for remaining holes. Of particular interest is the chalcopyrite mineralization within the potassic altered feldspar porphyry with associated sericite alteration. Chalcopyrite ranges from blebby to stringer mineralization within the feldspar porphyry and is closely associated with quartz veins and pods (See Photo 4). All drill core has been cut and sent to the laboratory and results will be released once they are received and compiled.
管理層對收到的第一個鑽孔結果表示高度鼓舞,急切地等待其他鑽孔的結果。尤其令人感興趣的是富鉀變質長石閃長巖中的石英黃銅礦化與伴生的絹雲母變質。在長石閃長巖中,黃銅礦從小氣泡狀至穿透脈狀礦化範圍廣泛,與石英脈和礦包密切相關(請參見照片4)。所有鑽孔岩心都已切割並送往實驗室,一旦收到並整理結果,將會發布。
The Tillex project is host to the Tillex copper deposit which was originally discovered in 1973 by Westmin Resources Ltd. A historic non 43-101 compliant near surface resource of 1,338,000 tonnes grading 1.56% Copper (Cu) was calculated in 1990 by Pacifica Resources Ltd (Source; Pacifica Resources Ltd., 2005-6 Canadian Mines Handbook, page 318). Mineralization is primarily chalcopyrite with minor bornite and accessory lead, zinc and silver. However, management notes this calculation does not meet the standards as outlined in National Instrument 43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects", and has not been independently validated or verified by the Corporation and should not be relied upon.
Tillex項目是銅礦牀Tillex,最早於1973年被Westmin Resources Ltd發現。1990年,Pacifica Resources Ltd計算了一個歷史上不符合43-101標準的近地表資源,銅含量爲1.56%,總量爲1,338,000噸(源自Pacifica Resources Ltd,2005-6加拿大礦業手冊第318頁)。礦化主要爲黃銅礦,少量的黃銅礦石和伴生的鉛、鋅和銀。然而,管理層指出此計算未達到《國家43-101號法規:礦產項目披露準則》中規定的標準,並未經公司的獨立驗證或核實,不應依賴於此。
Michael MacIsaac, P.Geo and VP Exploration for the Corporation and a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101, is responsible for this release, and supervised the preparation of the information forming the basis for this release.
