White Tiger Mining Corp. (CVE:WTC) reported that core drilling has resumed this week on the Marshall Lake property project, Ontario, Canada.
The press release is quoted as saying:
Drilling of the “RM Zone” copper discovery was temporarily postponed by the Company in May 2011 after drill holes RMZ 11-21 and RMZ 11-23 intersected significant widths of copper mineralization from near surface (see the Company’s News Releases dated April 5, April 11 and April 20, 2011). Drill hole RMZ 11-21 confirmed the presence of copper mineralization coincident with a significant north-trending IP (induced polarization) anomaly (now known as the “Lease Zone”) located southwest of the RM Zone. Drill hole RMZ 11-23 was designed as a step-out hole to test the down-dip extension of the drill hole RMZ 11-21 intercept. Previously announced assay results confirmed similar significant copper mineralization and both Zones remain open to depth and along strike (see the Company’s News Release dated May 3, 2011). The temporary drilling postponement gave the Company the opportunity to analyze the results and data from the drilling program earlier this year and to further delineate and correlate significant chargeability anomalies on the adjacent RM and Lease Zones and to expand its IP coverage using east-west and infill lines.
These results show that the higher grade copper mineralization within the RM Zone is elongate steeply down-plunge to the southeast and remains open to depth. Based on the width and near-surface nature of the mineralization discovered to date, the Company believes that the project will be amenable to low cost open pit mining methods.
