Creso Exploration, a mining exploration company, has declared the results from the latest drilling campaign on the Mann property located in Milner Township.
The results include intervals of 695 g/t silver over 1.4 m, from 23.3 to 24.7 m in a fresh zone junction grading 58.7 g/t silver over 21.7 m, from 16.6 to 38.3 m in DDH MN12-06. Two new anomalous zones have been discovered, one from DDH 12-08 which crisscrossed veinlets grading 37.4 g/t silver over 2.6 m from 31.9 to 34.5 m, and the other from DDH MN12-07, returning 21.0 g/t silver over 8.85 m from 16.75 to 25.6 m and 43.2 g/t silver over 4.0 m from 7.0 to 11.0 m. These holes were designed to examine the IP resistivity/chargeability anomalous zones from the newly concluded Insight Gradient Array study.
Overall, 509 m of diamond drilling were completed. The MN12-01 through MN12-05 drill holes were designed to outline the D zone and No. 3 zone workings. The MN12-06 to MN12-10 drill holes were designed to examine high resistivity and high chargeability contacts in an undrilled NW-SE trending zone towards the west of the regions.
Silver values in chlorite and carbonate mineralized veins are hosted in moderate to coarse grained diabase showing medium to strong magnetization. Disseminated sulphide mineralization includes 0.1 to 0.5 vol.% of mineralized veins.
Additionally, the MN12-09 and MN12-10 holes intersected new zones that are enriched with silver. These holes were designed to analyze the IP target zone 1. Further, MN12-08 hole validated the existence of mineralization to 100 m west of the shaft. The assay results obtained from MN12-07 and MN12-08 holes, which contain Cobalt sediments, indicate that these sediments warrant extensive exploration.
