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.
安大略省桑德贝--(Newsfile Corp.,2024年10月22日)——金属溪资源公司(TSXV:MEK)(FSE:M1C1)(“公司” 或 Metals Creek)欣然宣布位于安大略省蒂明斯以东65公里处的蒂莱克斯铜业项目最近完工(见新闻稿:2024年9月17日)的钻石钻探项目的第一洞结果(见新闻稿:2024年9月17日)距离 Kidd Creek Met 遗址 km。
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 的目标是近地表、矿化石墨质泥岩和达酸凝灰岩,旨在升级有限钻探区域并进一步完善当前的地质模型。TX24-021 孔的设计目的是填补 Tillex 区域中心部分的空隙,该区域没有钻孔,目的是增强我们对矿化连续性的信心。该孔返回了63.9米(m)(3860万至102.5米)的井下截距,其中 1.94% 的铜(Cu)和每吨(g/t)银(Ag)10.22克(见图1:示意图横截面)。该区间包括两个更高的品位间隔,即超过1520万(5400万至69.2米)的3.21%铜和4.77克/吨的银,以及超过1790万(8360万至101.5米)的2.58%铜和15.88克/吨的银。还截获了更高品位的银,井下截距为32.95 g/t Ag,超过600万(4300万至49m)的铜为1.70%。参见下表 1 TX24-021 的钻孔截距。

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%.
矿化包括局部极细的、无处不在的浸染性黄铜矿、横向的黄铜矿纵梁以及局部气泡样式,用局部黄铁矿和硫铁矿来缩小块状黄铜矿脉。当地也存在方铅矿和闪锌矿。变化主要包括亚氯酸盐和局部普遍存在的粘土变化。Tillex矿床中的矿化泥岩结构复杂,具有明显的折叠和压裂。矿化长石斑岩中也存在矿化长石斑岩,进一步增加了Tillex铜矿项目的勘探潜力。斑岩中的铜化验范围从0.32%到1.44%不等。
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.
本新闻稿中包括先前发布的几张钻芯照片(参见 2024 年 9 月 17 日的新闻稿),重点介绍了该项目中遇到的不同类型的黄铜矿矿化。请读者注意,这些照片仅用于说明目的,突出不同的矿化风格,并不代表整个洞穴中的矿化。
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.
管理层对第一个洞的结果感到非常鼓舞,他们焦急地等待剩余洞的结果。特别令人感兴趣的是钾蚀变长石斑岩中的黄铜矿矿化以及相关的绢云母蚀变。在长石斑岩中,黄铜矿的矿化范围从气泡到纵梁矿化,与石英脉和豆荚密切相关(见照片 4)。所有钻芯都已切割并送往实验室,结果将在收到和汇编后公布。
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项目是Tillex铜矿床的所在地,该矿床最初由威斯敏资源有限公司于1973年发现。太平洋资源有限公司于1990年计算了一种历史上不符合43-101标准的近地表资源,铜品位为1.56%(铜)(来源:太平洋资源有限公司,2005-6年《加拿大矿业手册》,第318页)。矿化主要是黄铜矿,含有少量硼石和附属铅、锌和银。但是,管理层指出,这种计算不符合National Instrument 43-101 “矿业项目披露标准” 中概述的标准,也没有经过公司的独立验证或验证,因此不应予以依赖。
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.
