SLAM Exploration has announced that a diamond drilling rig has been mobilized to its Portage project
SLAM Exploration (TSXV:SXL) has announced that a diamond drilling rig has been mobilized to its Portage project in New Brunswick, Canada, where the company has designed a program of approximately 3 holes to test for potential volcanogenic massive sulphide mineralization down-dip beneath the Portage zinc occurrence.
As quoted in the press release:
Early drilling results include a 3.35m wide core interval grading 5.81 percent zinc 2.97 percent lead 0.61 percent copper within a 25.30 m core interval of volcanogenic stringer and massive sulphide mineralization that averages 3.27 percent zinc 0.52 percent lead and 0.30 percent copper in hole CP77-57. Mineralized core intervals occur in 15 of the 21 historic diamond drill holes drilled on the Portage zone. The zone is open down-dip to the west and that direction is the focus of the drilling program.
Since the new discovery of mineralized float announced July 19, 2018, the Company expanded and re-grouped its Portage claims.
