Copper North Mining Corp. is pleased to announce the commencement of Phase 2 drilling at the Carmacks copper-gold-silver deposit in central Yukon.
Phase 1 fill-in drilling of Zone 2000S and Zone13 indicated strong continuity of oxide and sulphide mineralization (see news releases dated September 8, September 23, and October 22, 2015). Phase 2 drilling will continue to add fill-in drill holes and explore the extension of the mineralized zones and provide necessary drill information to complete resource estimation. Phase 2 drilling will also include the definition of near surface oxide copper mineralization in Zone 12. This year's drilling in Zones 2000S, 13 and 12, will, upon completion of the Phase 2 drilling, have tested approximately 35% of the 2,000 metre long mineralized structure. The zones are open for expansion to depth and along strike.
Once the Company has the Phase 2 drilling results, it intends to prepare an updated resource estimate.
