Further High Grade Sylvinite Mineralisation Intercepted at Sintoukola in the Republic of Congo
Further high-grade assay results from the Kola Potash Deposit Phase 2 drilling programme within the Sintoukola Potash Project in the Republic of Congo were announced by Elemental Minerals Ltd. (TSX:ELM,ASX:ELM). Drill hole EK_20 intersected high-grade sylvinite mineralisation more than 1,000 metres northwest of the nearest previously completed drill hole completed yet extending the Mineral Resource limits, and shallow potash was intersected in EK_20, another drill hole.

As quoted in the press release:
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Drill hole EK_20 has intersected high-grade sylvinite mineralisation more than 1000 metres northwest of the nearest previously completed drill hole completed yet extending the Mineral Resource limits
- Shallow potash intersections from EK_20 include:
- Upper Seam: 4.11m at 23.89% K2O (39.16% KCl) from 245.85m
- Lower Seam: 9.0m at 11.55% K2O (18.94% KCl) from 252.76m
At the time of reporting, the Company had completed 13 core holes of Phase 2 for an interim total of 4,481m (Figure 2). Laboratory assay results for core samples have been received for 4 drill holes (EK_17 to EK_20). Results of EK_18 and EK_19 have been reported previously and the assay sequence from EK_17 remains incomplete due to geotechnical testing.
