Rox Resources Reports 38.8 Meters at 16.9 Percent Zinc and Lead

Rox Resources Ltd. (ASX:RXL) announced assay results from the first diamond drill hole completed this year at its Teena zinc prospect.
As quoted in the press release:

Hole TNDD019 was drilled approximately 200m east of discovery hole TNDD009, and intersected high grade mineralisation with exceptional results.
TNDD019:

• 38.8m @ 16.9% Zn+Pb from 1068.9-1107.7m, including
  • 20.0m @ 22.4% Zn+Pb from 1076.0–1096.0m, and
• 8.9m @ 8.0% Zn+Pb from 1164.0 – 1172.9m, including
  • 5.0m @ 10.8% Zn+Pb from 1164.3-1169.3m

Ian Mulholland, managing director of Rox Resources, commented:

This is our best hole yet, and continues to confirm the huge potential and inherent value of this prospect. 20 metres grading over 22% Zn+Pb within a thicker zone of 38.8 metres grading 16.9% Zn+Pb is a truly outstanding result.
The strike length of the high grade mineralisation (greater than 13% Zn+Pb) at Teena extends to an impressive 1.3km, with good apparent continuity of the mineralisation indicated between drill holes.
