Pasinex Begins Phase 1 Diamond Drilling at Pinargozu Project

Pasinex Resources Ltd. (CSE:PSE) announced that it has begun Phase 1 diamond drilling at the Turkey-based Pinargozu zinc-lead project. Pasinex owns 50 percent of Pinargozu, while Akmetal Madencilik San ve Tic AŞ, its partner, owns the other half.

As quoted in the press release:

Drilling started on Borehole PPU14-006 on Saturday, 17 May. The borehole is one of 22 boreholes for which targets have been identified at Pinargozu – some from geological features of already-mined zinc oxide ore, and some from ground penetrating radar (GPR) surveys.

Borehole PPU14-006 is targeted on downward-continuation, in a mineralized structure, of ore mined from the 707 level of the old artisanal mine at Pinargozu.

Steve Williams, CEO of Pasinex, commented:

Pasinex has entered into another important stage of the company’s development with the beginning of drilling at Pinargozu. We look forward to the results from this drill campaign.
