Nevada Copper Corp. (TSX:NCU) released drill results from three drill holes on the Pumpkin Hollow Property in Nevada. North deposit mineralization continues to expand on the property, with 0.45% copper intersected at 179.1 meters. Significant thickness of mineralization along the south edge of the North deposit was found in two of the three holes. The highest grade zone intersected 72.5 feet (22.1 meters), 65.6 feet (20.0 meters) true thickness, and grading 1.50% copper.
As quoted in the press release:
The mineralization in NC13-04 totaled 587.5 feet (179.1 meters) averaging 0.54% copper. The highest grade zone intersected 72.5 feet (22.1 meters), 65.6 feet (20.0 meters) true thickness, and grading 1.50% copper. Mineralization remains open to the south and southeast.
Nevada Copper Corp. Vice President and Senior Project Manager, Gregory French said:
The results from drill holes NC13-01, NC13-04 and the earlier reported NC12-34 which intersected 690 feet grading 1.17% copper, continue to demonstrate the potential to further expand the mineralization between the North and South deposit. The expansion of mineralization is expected to enhance future pits designs and economics of the project. Expanding the mineralization in the NC12-34 area is the priority in our current drilling program and we are very pleased with the initial results.
