Nevada Copper Corp.’s (TSX:NCU) latest step-out and expansion drill results from Pumpkin Hollow in Nevada indicate 690 feet (210.3 meters), 625.3 feet (190.6 meters) true thickness, grading 1.17% copper.
As quoted in the press release:
In the North deposit, five holes were drilled, drill holes; NC12-28, 30, 31, 33, and 34. Results continue to expand mineralization along the southern edge and at depth. Drill hole NC12-34 targeted the expansion of the main mineralized zone, intersecting 690 feet (210.3 meters), 625.3 feet (190.6 meters) true thickness, grading 1.17% copper. Mineralization still remains open in several directions.
Nevada Copper Vice President, Senior Project Manager Gregory French said:
The south edge of the North deposit continues to produce great results in both grade and thickness. Intersecting almost 700 feet of high grade mineralization in NC12-34 is extremely positive as we previously intersected 127 feet at 3.96% copper in hole NC12-03 which is located approximately 300 feet to the north. These results now open up a large prospective area between those holes that has not yet been drill tested. The nearest holes to the south and east are approximately 600 to 800 feet away. When drilling resumes, this area will be a top priority.
