(TheNewswire)

   

  - Middlecoff Silver Vein extended to South  

 

  - Additional drilling planned to south and at depth for Middlecoff  

 

  - Phase Two Spring Drill Program to include West Fault and Middlecoff Targets  

 

Vancouver, BC TheNewswire - February 16, 2021 - Alianza Minerals Ltd. ( TSXV:ANZ ) (OTC:TARSF ) (" Alianza" or the "Company" ) is pleased to report final results from the Phase One diamond drilling program at the Company's wholly owned Haldane Silver Project located in the historic Keno Hill Mining District of Yukon Territory. Holes HLD20-20 and HLD20-21 targeted the Middlecoff Vein. HLD20-21 intersected silver mineralization including a core length of 0.89 m averaging 342 gt silver, 2.35% lead and 1.20% zinc (476 gt silver-equivalent*) . The 8,579-hectare Haldane Project is located 25 km west of Keno City, Yukon in the western portion of the Keno Hill Mining District. Alianza completed the late season drilling program in early December 2020.

 

  "   The Middlecoff drilling has shown that the structure and mineralization is continuous to the south,"   stated Jason Weber, P.Geo., President and CEO of Alianza.   "As we learn more at the Middlecoff, it is apparent that the host structure and vein system is productive, and we will continue to explore to the south and at depth for thick, high-grade silver intercepts as we have now seen at West Fault."  

 

  The 2020 program at Middlecoff was designed to follow up a 2019 intersection of   455 g/t silver over 1 metre.   HLD20-21 tested the Middlecoff vein 30 m south of the 2019 holes and intersected heavily oxidized and broken fault-vein material with fragments of sulphide vein (galena, sphalerite +/- sulphosalts). The entire vein is approximately 6.75 m in width (3.00 m estimated true width), with 81 g/t Ag, 0.14 g/t Au, 0.40% Pb and 0.41% Zn (120 g/t Ag-Equivalent). The higher-grade portion of the vein was   0.89 m wide (0.40 m estimated true width), averaging 342 g/t silver, 2.35% lead and 1.20% zinc (476 g/t silver-equivalent*), and consisted of grey fault breccia cemented by beige manganese carbonate and orange oxide material.   The intersection appears to be bounded on either side by a quartz breccia which may be acting to constrain the vein in this area. HLD20-21 was drilled from the same pad as HLD20-20, which was terminated at 59 metres prior to the target depth due to excessive deviation. Both holes intersected narrow silver-bearing veins in the footwall of the Middlecoff mineralization.  

 

  Planning for the Phase Two program is underway. Drilling will focus on the West Fault (8.72 m averaging 311 g/t silver, 0.89% lead, 1.13% zinc – see release dated January 28, 2021) and Middlecoff targets. Management expects the Phase Two program to commence in late April, weather permitting. Details of the program will be released once collar locations and depths are finalized.

  Analytical values have been rounded.  

 

  *Silver-equivalent values are calculated assuming 100% recovery using the formula: ((20 * silver (g/t) / 31.104) + (1650 * gold (g/t) / 31.104) + (0.90 * 2204 * lead %/100) + (1.10 * 2204 * zinc %/100)) *(31.1035 / 20). Metal price assumptions are US$20/oz silver, US$1650/oz gold, US$0.90/lb lead and US$1.10/lb zinc.

Bert Dohmen: Gold, Silver Key as Stock Market Bull Trap Looms

Bert Dohmen, founder and CEO of Dohmen Capital Research, sees physical gold and silver as key safe havens as a potential bull trap in the broad stock market plays out.

"We said we're probably going to go to a new high in a major, widely watched index like the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX). It's going to be by a small amount a new high, and that's going to close the bull trap," he said.

Top 5 ASX Gold Stocks of 2025

Gold continued to perform well through the second quarter of 2025, reaching a new all-time high of AU$5,425 per ounce on April 22.

The price surge has occurred amid volatile equity and financial markets since the start of the year, driven by concerns over a global trade war and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

The rising gold price has also been supported by uncertainty over a looming debt crisis in the United States. Some investors have turned away from dollar-denominated haven assets, such as US Treasuries, in favour of precious metals like gold.
