Canada Zinc Metals Plans Drill Program at Cardiac Creek Deposit

Canada Zinc Metals Corp. (TSXV:CZX) announced that it plans to undertake a 5,000 metre diamond drill program for its Cardiac Creek deposit to increase the size of the deposit and improve the confidence of the current resource categories.

As quoted in the press release,

The Company owns 100% of eleven, large, contiguous property blocks that comprise the Akie and Kechika Regional projects. The Company’s flagship Akie Project is host to the Cardiac Creek deposit. The Kechika Regional Project includes the Pie, Yuen, Cirque East and Mt. Alcock properties extending northwest from the Akie property for approximately 140 kilometres along strike of the highly prospective Gunsteel Formation shale; the main host rock for known SEDEX zinc-lead-silver deposits in the Kechika Trough of northeastern British Columbia.

Peeyush Varshney, President and CEO, of the Company stated,

The 2015 exploration program will focus mainly on our flagship Akie project and the Cardiac Creek deposit. Results from the 2013 and 2014 drilling on the deposit represented an expansion of known mineralization both along strike and up-dip. We believe that this season’s targeted drilling will increase the dimensions and level of confidence in the resource down-dip. The results will ultimately help plan subsequent stages of exploration on the Akie property and development of the deposit.
