Starcore International Mines Ltd. (SAM) has updated results of a sampling program done on its Ajax Property in British Columbia.
According to the company, samples that initially assayed over-limit for silver and tungsten were re-submitted to a laboratory for ore grade analyses. Assay samples collected in 2022 included values high in silver, elevated copper, lead and zinc and anomalous cobalt and tungsten.
The following table lists highlights from the 53-element assay analysis:
the 2022 samples built on the company’s 2021 program, where precious and base metal mineralization was defined beyond the limits of the known mineralization.
Mineralization was found exposed in old pits and trenches and in outcrop along the margins of ice and snow on the southeast spine and upper slopes of Mount McGuire. This mineralization is about 1.7 kilometres southwest of known mineralization and up to 540 metres higher in elevation.
Starcore shared it is planning additional fieldwork for 2023 to further explore the potential of higher-level porphyry, transitional and vein mineralization. This would include locating and sampling the 1926 underground workings at the Le Roy mineral occurrence on the Ajax Property.
Other styles of mineralization occur within the area, such as at Dolly Varden, 12 kilometres northwest, Big Bulk, seven kilometres northeast and Surebet, 17 kilometres west.
