Significant visible copper sulphides were recorded in hole MO-A4-003D as part of the latest A4 diamond dome testing of Aim's Metal Tiger Joint Venture project with its partner MOD Resources in the Kalahari copper belt. , Botswana
High visible copper mineralization intersected in veins over an interval of 67 m depth, 232 m to 299 m depth.
However, the investment company pointed out Monday that the dominant copper vein mineralization is chalcopyrite, with bornite and chalcopyrite localized increasing with depth in the venous zone.
In addition, Metal Tiger noted that drilling of MO-A4-003D continues with a current depth of about 334 m and a target depth of less than 600 m to test deeper geophysical targets defined from airborne electromagnetic data (EM) and to test the potential contact of the inferred Ngwako Pan formation under the target sequence.
The mineralized core of MO-A4-003D is processed by the sample preparation facility of the joint venture in Ghanzi and will be badyzed as soon as possible, adds Metal Tiger.
Meanwhile, a third drill began drilling at A4 Dome with three holes currently in progress, namely MO-A4-002D, MO-A4-003D, MO-A4-004D.
A4 Dome is the first of seven "buried domes" to be drilled at the T3 Dome Complex as the T3 Dome Complex drilling program is a major drill campaign to test many geophysical targets along the complex, with approximately 60 holes diamond drilling were budgeted during phase 1.
The purpose of the planned drilling is to confirm the prospective geological sequence and structures that occur in the seven initial domes interpreted
Holes are drilled in areas of structural complexity to verify the presence of T3 deposits Typ e ', and to test the potential underlying NPF contact, which hosts other substantial copper deposits in the eastern part of the Kalahari Copper Belt
"We are delighted to report that the last drill hole testing the heart of the A4 Dome appears to be a significant mineralization of copper sulphide. On-site geologists are particularly excited by the stockwork morphology of mineralization which is a style previously unseen by JV drilling, "commented Metal Tiger CEO Michael McNeilly
This he pointed out, has other implications in that the A4 dome appears to be an intact dome, so any mineralization hosted in the dome should always be there.
"Everyone is waiting for the results of the test."
