Aston Bay Holdings Ltd’s (TSXV: BAY) initial assay results have confirmed thick intervals of copper mineralization from its ongoing delineation drilling programme at the Storm Copper Project on Somerset Island, Nunavut, Canada.
“Impressive results continue to come in from the ongoing exploration conducted by our partner American West Metals at Storm,” CEO, Thomas Ullrich, said.
“These assay results from the first reverse circulation drill hole of the season confirm the presence of significant copper mineralization, exceeding the initial visual estimates. This increases our confidence in both the core logging and our assumptions on the continuity of the mineralization at the 4100N Zone.
“We look forward to continuing good news from the results of the ongoing drilling, as well as from the interpretation of the recently completed geophysical programs now being processed.”
“Assay results have been received for drill hole SR23-01, the first hole of the current programme, and confirm the presence of thick intervals of near-surface copper sulphides. The assays indicate that the mineralized intervals in SR23-01 have exceeded our visual estimations as reported on May 9.”
The drilling programme is ongoing and continues to intersect significant lengths of visual copper sulfide mineralization within the central and western portion of the known mineralized zone at the 4100N Zone. Due to continuing success and an expansion of the mineralized footprint, further drill holes have been added to the 4100N Zone programme.
