Discovery Metals doubles length of Quirinus Prospect
Soil Geochemical surveys over the Quirinus Prospect indicate that the strike length of the target is now more than double previous estimates, at 3,300 metres in strike. The prospect is still open along strike to the northeast and southwest. The soil sampling program is designed to define the limits of the prospect, and would therefore continue. Discovery Metals said that it had also drilled three holes into the area, and visual inspection of the core suggested the mineralisation was of a similar style to the Zeta, Plutus and Petra copper-silver ore bodies. Assay results are pending.
Brad Sampson, MD of Discovery Metals, said,
"These results demonstrate the exploration potential of the company's 6,400km2 tenement package in addition to the inferred mineral resources previously defined at Zeta, Plutus and Petra. We still have hundreds of strike kilometres of potentially copper enriched rocks in our tenements that we intend to explore." Register here for more articles on Discovery Metals
