Exciting Drilling Progress at Lunahuasi Project
NGEx Minerals Ltd. is thrilled to share notable findings from its drilling program at the Lunahuasi high-grade copper-gold-silver project. The recent assay results show impressive intersections, demonstrating the project's potential and reinforcing the company’s advancement in the mineral exploration sector. Drillholes indicate extraordinary mineralization, which is crucial for enhancing the project's value.
Latest Highlights from Drill Program
Among the findings, drillhole DPDH041 intersected an eye-catching 8.30m at a remarkable 12.38% copper equivalent (CuEq) from 266.70m. Additionally, the hole recorded a subsequent interval of 89.10m at 4.09% CuEq, showing variances in the mineral grades. Notably, this includes a substantial 38.10m section at 7.07% CuEq from 605.40m.
Key Drillhole Performance
Similarly, drillhole DPDH042 displayed exceptional results: 48.90m at 7.75% CuEq starting from 281.70m. Within this interval, one of the high points is a segment of 12.55m at an astonishing 19.05% CuEq from 292.25m. Moreover, even more impressive is a sub-segment of 2.30m at 23.82% CuEq from 509.10m.
Dive into the Details of DPDH043
Another highlight of the project was the drilling from DPDH043, which intersected 46.80m at 9.55% CuEq from 492.20m. This included significant high-grade sections, such as 15.80m at an impressive 19.08% CuEq, further enhancing the drill performance in this area.
Insights from the CEO
Wojtek Wodzicki, the President and CEO of NGEx Minerals, commented on the results: "We are excited by the drill results, which confirm our understanding of mineralization zones and unveil new ones. The intersection of 46.80m at 9.55% CuEq in DPDH043 is particularly exciting, as it suggests considerable extensions of high-grade mineralization into previously unexplored areas. These findings bolster our understanding of the deposit and present a robust outlook for unearthing further mineral resources through continued exploration."
Future Exploration Goals
The outcomes of the current drilling program lead to the identification of additional zones beyond the current scope. Ongoing planning for a fourth drill campaign is slated to commence shortly, aimed at an even deeper geological understanding of Lunahuasi's mineral potential. The team is preparing to further investigate the newly identified zones named Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter, each representing significant mineral volumes.
The successful completion of the Phase 3 drill program has energized the team, as they now anticipate the results of the remaining holes while laying the groundwork for future pursuits. The forthcoming drilling will be instrumental in defining the zones of interest more comprehensively, paving the way for potential new discoveries and expansions within Lunahuasi.
