Deep Core Program Begins At Porphyry Copper, Silver, Gold Project
VANCOUVER - Majuba Hill Copper Corp. reported that core drilling is underway at the Majuba Hill Porphyry Copper Project in Pershing County Nevada. Falcon Drilling is on-site to drill 3800 m (12,500 ft) of core. The planned, deep core holes are targeting what the Company believes is the causative granodiorite/dacite intrusive for copper mineralization which was discovered in the 2021 deep core holes.
The deep core sites were picked based on compilation and integration of recent drilling by the company combined with the deep IP/Resistivity and Magnetic geophysical programs completed in 2020 and 2021. Interpretation of these results outlined a very large zone that underlies most of the known copper, silver, and gold mineralization at Majuba. Evaluation of molybdenum, lead, and zinc geochemical results support and enhance the location of the deep intrusive zone.
David Greenway, President and CEO, said, “I am very pleased that we are now drilling the deep core holes at Majuba. Drilling at Majuba has always been based on a systematic, staged exploration approach and it is exciting that the results have guided us to test such a large target with the potential to expand the mineralization into a large copper deposit in a very safe political jurisdiction like Nevada.”
