Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX | FSE: MX0 | OTCQX: AMXEF) has announced results from its ongoing drill programme at the Perron Project, located in northwestern Abitibi, Quebec.
The results from PEG-25-854 have expanded the mineralized footprint of the Central Polymetallic Zone (CPZ) to the west near surface by approximately 130m.
Jacques Trottier, PhD, Executive Chairman of Amex Exploration commented, “The Central Polymetallic Zone had not been drilled since the discovery of the high-grade Zone in late 2018, until last year’s intercept of 134.36g/t Au over 1.80m which extended the zone at depth down plunge. Today’s results have extended the zone up plunge, westwards and towards surface and indicates that there is much more room for growth.
Highlights of the drill results include 39.06g/t Au, 331.92 g/t Ag, 1.14% Cu, 3.38% Zn and 2.35% Pb over 1.30m, including 48.27 g/t Au, 468.00g/t Ag, 1.72% Cu, 4.48% Zn and 3.21% Pb over 0.80m at a vertical depth of ~105m.
“Our geology team has identified the potential for the extension of the CPZ to continue at depth, where there is a possible correlation with the Donna Copper Zone, found just north of the High Grade Zone. This model would match with other Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) orebodies in the region such as the historical Normétal Mine, which was zinc-rich close to surface and more copper-rich at depth.” Added Mr. Trottier.
