Energia Expands Known Mineralization at Colonna Zorzone Deposit

Energia Minerals Ltd. (ASX:EMX) released results from ongoing resource definition drilling at its Italy-based Gorno zinc project. The results further expand the known envelope of zinc mineralization within the Colonna Zorzone deposit.
As quoted in the press release:

The results continue to provide strong support for the previously announced Exploration Target for Colonna Zorzone, putting the Company firmly on track to achieve its objective of completing a maiden Indicated and Inferred Resource estimate for the Gorno Project in early 2016.
Additional assay results have been received from four holes (see Figure 4 for location and Table 1), of which two (GDD032 and GDD035) are from the main Zorzone zinc deposit. As outlined in the Company’s previous announcement of 17 December, 2015, GDD032 was expected to contain low grade mineralisation, while GDD035 was sited in an area of possible high grade mineralisation which has now been confirmed with an impressive intersection of 10.9m grading 10.0% Zn+Pb and 29g/t Ag including an end of hole assay of 2.3m grading 27.6% Zn+Pb and 92g/t Ag (see figure 1).
GDD033 and GDD034 were exploration holes to the east of the Zorzone zinc deposit with GDD034 returning an encouraging intercept of 4.4m grading 4.4% Zn+Pb and 44g/t Ag (see figure 2).
Assays are awaited for eleven additional holes (GDD036–GDD046). Seven of these – GDD037, GDD039, GDD041, GDD042, GDD043, GDD044 and GDD045 – are from within or peripheral to the main Zorzone deposit with five (GDD037, GDD041, GDD042, GDD043 and GDD045) containing visually significant mineralised intercepts.
