E-Fault + pyrite halo |
Drillhole MO-03-88 - geotechnical hole designed to test NE pit wall. Collared 30m west of the East Fault, it intersected 10m of Central Copper Zone, penetrated
through the East Fault from 42.37m to 75.43m, and into unaltered, very weakly mineralized Pyrite halo on the east side of the East Fault. Entire hole was
drilled to recover oriented core to provide precise structural data. Core samples were tested to obtain data on mechanical properties of different rock types.
Drillhole MO-03-89 - infill hole designed to confirm the high grade intersection in steeply-inclined hole MO-00-06 and to close the spacing between inclined
holes MO-00-17 and MO-01-31. Principal intersections from this hole are:
From 126.49m to 430.25m – 303.76m (core length) assaying 0.58% Copper and 0.21 g/t Gold, including:
· From 147.83 to 193.55 – 45.72m (core length) assaying 0.97% Copper and 0.29 g/t Gold
· From 293.27 to 385.57 – 146.30m (core length) assaying 0.61% Copper and 0.25g/t Gold
Sections of the hole were drilled for oriented core recovery for geotechnical studies.
Drillhole MO-03-90 - tested the Low Grade Core of the deposit and East Fault. From the table above Low Grade Core grades from 38.1m to 166.12m are slightly
above 0.20% copper and gold ranges from 0.15 to 0.19 g/t.
Mineralized East Fault Zone intersection in this hole is:
· From 166.12 to 227.08 – 60.96m (core length) assaying 0.41% Copper and 0.36 g/t Gold
This hole was also used for geotechnical studies; core was oriented, geotechnical samples were collected and tested. In order to monitor ground water
fluctuations a piezometer was installed at 189m.
