Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ASX:EM2) has intersected good mineralisation in three of five holes drilled to the far east side of the Talon prospect at its 100% owned Oracle Ridge Copper Mine Project in Arizona, USA.
Eagle Mountain is a copper-gold explorer focused on the strategic exploration and development of the Oracle Ridge Copper Mine and the highly prospective greenfields Silver Mountain Project, both located in Arizona, USA.
Arizona is at the heart of America’s mining industry and home to some of the world’s largest copper discoveries such as Bagdad, Miami and Resolution, one of the largest undeveloped copper deposits in the world.
“These latest results are likely to improve our anticipated Mineral Resource Estimate update and our strategy to work towards re-opening the Oracle Ridge Copper Mine,” CEO, Tim Mason, said.
“Recommissioning of the existing underground mine will be a key milestone for the Company and will lead to faster and less expensive drilling compared to drilling from surface, due to shorter hole lengths, along with invaluable access for future works and study requirements.”
- Results of the far eastern Talon drilling include:
- 24.5m at 1.68% Cu, 14.68 g/t Ag and 0.34g/t Au (WT-22-121)
- 13.2m at 1.75% Cu, 14.51g/t Ag and 0.37g/t Au (WT-22-121)
- 14.5m at 1.57% Cu, 14.77 g/t Ag and 0.1g/t Au including
- 6.3m at 2.86% Cu, 30.70g/t Ag and 0.21g/t Au (WT-22-119)
- 4.9m at 6.61% Cu, 70.19 g/t Ag and 0.43 g/t Au (WT-22-125)
The mineralised zones outlined are interpreted to connect with outcropping mineralisation at surface
Large diameter (PQ) drilling is being undertaken at Talon to collect metallurgical testwork samples and to infill the known resource.
