Underground Drilling Underway At Bayhorse Silver Mine
VANCOUVER - Bayhorse Silver Inc, reported that underground diamond drilling is underway beneath the silver/copper/antimony rich Bayhorse Silver Mine in Oregon. Diamond drilling is targeting the large low-resistivity anomaly that lies beneath the silver/copper/antimony rich bearing rhyolite at the Bayhorse Silver Mine. The 1.5 +km (5,000 feet) anomaly appears to have a vertical extent of 500 m (1,650 ft) from 600 m (1,980 ft) above sea level to 100 m (330 ft) above sea level and a width of up to 100 m (330 ft).
The Company anticipates good drilling ground for a large portion of the drill hole, estimating at least +/- 30 meters (100 feet) of drill core per shift, intersecting the top of the anomaly 150 m (495 ft) down hole with a projected termination depth of 257 m (850 ft) at the east side of the anomaly.
Antimony – In addition to its high Silver/Copper content, the Bayhorse mineralization, tetrahedrite, contains a significant amount of Antimony, a critical mineral.
