Updated Mineral Resource Estimate For The Bunker Hill Mine
TORONTO - Sam Ash, CEO, of Bunker Hill Mining Corporation, said, “We are pleased to report an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Bunker Hill Mine. Most significantly, the Measured and Indicated category has increased 59% to 1.1 billion zinc equivalent pounds with higher grades for all reported metals, including a 124% increase in silver ounces and the conversion of material to the Measured category for the first time. These results reflect the excellent work by our geology team over the last few months to incorporate the final results of our Phase 2 drill program, advance the detailed digitization of historical data, and reflect a more refined geologic interpretation of Bunker Hill’s mineralization. This allows us to further optimize mine planning and engineering studies, concurrent with the finalization of our project finance process.”
In addition to preparing for the restart of mining in the upper part of the mine, the Company continues to refine its plans to explore the high-grade silver potential at depth and those new areas of interest that may be highlighted by its recent geophysical survey.
