EMX Provides an Update on Exploration Successes at Viscaria
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 31, 2024) - EMX Royalty Corporation (NYSE American: EMX) (TSX Venture: EMX) (FSE: 6E9) (the "Company" or "EMX") is pleased to announce that the operator of the Viscaria copper-iron-silver project in Northern Sweden, where EMX holds a royalty interest, recently published new exploration results that appear to include discoveries of multiple new bodies of mineralization. Viscaria Gruvaktiebolag ("Viscaria"; formerly Copperstone Resources AB) is the operator of the Viscaria project and has been undertaking final permitting and recently commenced construction of its water treatment plant needed for the reopening of the past-producing mine. According to their disclosures, Viscaria expects to commence production on the project in 2026.
溫哥華,卑詩省-2024年10月31日 - emx royalty公司(紐交所美國: EMX)(tsx創業公司: EMX)(FSE: 6E9)(以下簡稱"公司"或"EMX")很高興宣佈,北瑞典維斯卡利亞銅鐵銀項目的運營商,維斯卡利亞礦業有限公司("維斯卡利亞"; 原銅石資源公司)最近發佈了新的勘探結果,似乎包括多個新的礦化體的發現。維斯卡利亞項目的運營商一直在進行最終許可和最近開始施工其水處理廠的工作,這是重新開採過去生產礦山所需。根據他們的披露,維斯卡利亞預計將於2026年開始項目生產。
In parallel with its ongoing development work, Viscaria has been conducting its first "near mine" exploration drilling campaign, which commenced in spring of this year. According to Viscaria's most recent exploration presentation and news release1, over 9,000 meters of drilling have been completed as part of this program. This has led to the recognition and definition of additional zones of mineralization that project downward from the currently defined "D" and "B" resource areas, as well as a new zone of drill-defined mineralization that lies beneath the "A" and "B" resource areas and has been named the "ABBA" zone (see Figures 1 and 2). Viscaria has described these new discoveries as "exceptional exploration results" which highlight the considerable upside potential and optionality that exists on the project.
與其進行中的開發工作同步進行,維斯卡利亞在今年春季開始了其首次"近礦附近"勘探鑽探活動。根據維斯卡利亞最近的勘探報告和新聞發佈1,作爲該項目探索計劃的一部分,已完成超過9,000米的鑽探。這導致了對從當前定義的"D"和"B"資源區向下延伸的礦化帶的識別和定義,以及一處新的鑽探定義礦化帶位於"A"和"B"資源區下方,已被命名爲"ABBA"帶(見圖1和圖2)。維斯卡利亞將這些新發現描述爲"卓越的勘探結果",突顯了該項目存在的巨大增長潛力和選擇性。
Reported drill results are highlighted by[1]:
報告的鑽探結果重點包括[1]:
An intercept of 43.2m @ 1.12% Cu and 31.35% Fe from depths of 1107 to 1050.2 meters in hole VDD24055 (positioned just below the existing "D Zone" resources).
An intercept of 13.3m @ 2.42% Cu and 4.96 g/t Ag from depths of 498.1 to 511.4 meters in drill hole VDD23116 (adjacent to the "B Zone" resources).
VDD24055號鑽孔中從1107至1050.2米處截獲的4320萬噸@ 1.12%銅和31.35%鐵(位於現有"D區域"資源的正下方)。
VDD23116號鑽孔中從498.1至511.4米處截獲的1330萬噸@ 2.42%銅和4.96克/噸銀(鄰近"b區域"資源)。
EMX considers these results to be salient and important to the valuation of its royalty interest. Viscaria has also reported that it is working to complete a feasibility study by year end and is currently working to update and bring its resource estimates into compliance with PERC (2021) reporting standards. EMX congratulates Viscaria Gruvaktiebolag on these successes and their recent progress.
EMX認爲這些結果對其所有權利益的價值評估至關重要。維斯卡利亞還報告說,他們正在努力於年底完成可行性研究,並當前正在更新和使其資源估算符合2021年PERC報告標準。EMX對維斯卡利亞礦業有限公司取得的成功和最近的進展表示祝賀。
EMX's current royalty footprint covers the A, B and D zones and consists of a 0.5% NSR royalty that escalates to an uncapped 1% NSR royalty after $12 million has been paid to the royalty holder.
emx當前的皇家版圖覆蓋了億區和D區,包括0.5%的毛利收入份額,支付給皇家所有人1200萬美元后,將逐步提高至未限制的1%的毛利收入份額。
About the Viscaria Copper-Iron-Silver deposit. The Viscaria deposit is located just west of LKAB's Kiruna iron mine, the largest underground iron mine in the world. Viscaria is typically classified as a member of the Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold ("IOCG") deposit clan and is broadly associated with similar iron and copper systems elsewhere in the region. The Viscaria mine was initially owned and operated by LKAB, which commenced operations in 1983. Outokumpu OY acquired the mine in 1985 and operated it until closure in 1993. Phelps Dodge Sweden AB later acquired the project from Outokumpu and then sold the project to Avalon Viscaria AB in 2008 and kept a royalty over the project area as part of its consideration. Avalon Viscaria AB later became the current Viscaria Gruvaktiebolag. EMX acquired Phelps Dodge Sweden AB in 2009, including the Viscaria royalty.
關於Viscaria銅鐵銀礦牀。Viscaria礦牀位於LKAB的Kiruna鐵礦西側,後者是世界上最大的地下鐵礦。Viscaria通常被分類爲鐵氧化銅金(「IOCG」)礦牀的成員,並與該地區其他地方類似的鐵和銅系統廣泛相關。Viscaria礦最初由LKAB擁有和運營,於1983年開始運營。Outokumpu OY在1985年收購了該礦,並在1993年關閉前運營。Phelps Dodge Sweden Ab後來從Outokumpu收購了該項目,然後在2008年將該項目出售給Avalon Viscaria Ab,並作爲考慮的一部分在該項目區域保留了一項權利。Avalon Viscaria Ab後來成爲當前的Viscaria Gruvaktiebolag。EMX在2009年收購了包括Viscaria權利在內的Phelps Dodge Sweden Ab。
