Zincore Intersects Copper at First Drilling in JV with First Quantum Minerals

Zincore Metals Inc. (TSX:ZNC) announced assay results from DOL-11, the first hole drilled under a joint-venture with First Quantum Minerals in the Dolores copper-molybdenum porphyry propertyin Peru.

As quoted in the press release:

Hole DOL-11 intersected favorable values of copper and molybdenum cutting porphyry diorite with moderate silicification and some zones of hydrothermal breccias.

Zincore President and CEO, Jorge Benavides, said:

We continue to hit interesting copper and molybdenum mineralization at Dolores as we search for what we believe is the high grade centre of a very large copper-molybdenum system located within a prolific mining area. We are encouraged by the results from DOL-11 as the amount of stockwork veining, and strong alteration associated with mineralization is what one wants to see when seeking to define a large copper porphyry system.
