York Harbour Metals (YORK) has drilled copper and zinc-rich volcanogenic massive sulphides (VMS) at the York Harbour project in western Newfoundland.
The company completed 42 NQ-size diamond drill core holes, totalling 8,075 metres, during the Phase 4 drilling program from September 5 to November 17, 2022. Drilling was carried out within the A Zone, 100 metres to the north of the D and H Zones.
The drilling within the Main Zone continues to discover and delineate copper and zinc-rich VMS mineralization both between known zones of mineralization as well as also along strike and downdip of them. Pending confirmation from assay results, the company anticipates that the recent drilling has added significantly to the volume of mineralization in this area.
The assay results for the first of three batches of drill core analyses are expected in early December. The Company has been compiling the visual drilling results in preparation for planning a drilling strategy for a fifth phase drilling program which is scheduled to commence in January 2023.
The company’s President and CEO, Bruce Durham, said the team continues to intersect massive and semi-massive copper-zinc VMS mineralization within the Main Zone that increases the potential to build mineral resources around the area explored historically.
“It is encouraging to see we are also defining the extent of the mineralization with new intercepts on the A Zone and elsewhere. Also, what is very exciting, is to see mineralization in a new area on the property where no one has drilled before. We are looking forward to expanding our drilling plans that will include testing the Induced Polarization anomalies in the upcoming Phase 5 drilling campaign.”
