Alphamin Resources Corp. (TSXV:AFM) identified grades of silver, zinc, lead and tin at its Bisie tin project in east central Democratic Republic of Congo.

As quoted in the press release:

The Bisie Project is located within the Walikale District roughly 140 km west-northwest of the regional centre of Goma in one of the world’s principal Precambrian orogenic-metallogenic provinces. Tin was first discovered at Bisie in 2004 and was mined by artisanal miners from two main target areas, Gecomines and Golgotha shown in Figure 1 located along 1.5km of a ridge which continues for more than 9km.

Two drill holes (BGC001 and BGC002) were completed at Gecomines where artisanals mined a 20m x 8m high grade chute down to 80m below surface and two holes were drilled at Golgotha where a number of narrow high grade quartz-cassiterite veins were mined. Although conceptual in nature since insufficient exploration has been done to define a mineral resource grades of 50-95% SnO2 (tin oxide – cassiterite) were reported from the high grade chute at Gecomines.
