Critical Resources (ASX: CRR) has uncovered additional mineralisation at its Halls Peak Project in New South Wales.
The latest assays confirm further zinc, lead, copper and silver-bearing zones of sulphide mineralisation, with strong mineralisation at depth continuing to expand the potential of the Halls Peak System.
“Further intersections at Gibsons of high-grade base and precious metal mineralisation continue to demonstrate the potential of the Halls Peak Project,” Chairman, Robert Martin, said.
“The vast majority of the lateral and vertical extent at Halls Peak has never been tested by drilling, presenting substantial potential for a World Class Tier 1 discovery in this extremely large mineralised system.”
Highlights
Assays confirm further zinc, lead, copper and silver-bearing zones of sulphide mineralisation
Strong mineralisation at depth expands potential of the Halls Peak System
Builds on prior assays confirming base metal sulphide mineralisation that lies outside the previously known mineralisation of the Gibsons prospect
Continued drilling focused on identifying extent of mineralisation
Assay results from diamond drill holes CRR21DD_17 (Hole 17), CRR21DD_18 (Hole 18) and CRR21DD_11B (Hole 11B) show that all intersected further zinc, lead, copper and silver-bearing zones of sulphide mineralisation, building on earlier successes reported in recent months.
Hole 18 was in an emerging zone of newly discovered mineralisation, which lies outside the previously known mineralisation within the Gibsons prospect of the Project, while Hole 17 also tested a new area outside the known mineralisation.
The strong mineralisation at depth continues to expand the potential of the Halls Peak System – a large mineralised system with numerous widespread high-grade zinc-lead-copper-silver deposits. It also builds on recent drilling by the company, which has confirmed base metal sulphide mineralisation extending vertically over 300m in the deepest holes drilled.
Cores from completed holes 19 and 20 are currently being assayed at the ALS laboratory in Brisbane with results to be announced in due course.
Continued drilling at Gibsons is focusing on identifying the mineralised extent of the lithology, with the aim of unlocking the full potential of the Halls Peak base metal system.
