Metals & Mining Industrial Metals & Minerals

MTB Metals Corp is a Canadian mineral exploration company. The Company has six active projects spanning 670 square kilometers (67,587 hectares) in the prolific Golden Triangle of northern British Columbia. Its projects include Telegraph, American Creek, Red Cliff, BA property, Theia and Southmore. The Telegraph project is located in the vicinity of four porphyry deposits being advanced by mining companies: Galore (Teck / Newmont), Schaft (Teck), Saddle (Newmont) and the operating Red Chris copper-gold mine (Newcrest / Imperial Metals). The American Creek project is centered on the historic Mountain Boy silver mine. The project is road accessible and 20 kilometers (km) from the deep-water port of Stewart. Red Cliff is a past producing gold and copper mine in which the Company holds a 35% interest. The BA property is a silver-lead-zinc mineralization located approximately four km from the highway. The Southmore is in the midst of some of the deposits in the Golden Triangle.

RE:Drill results BA property

I'm thinking that if the results were very good they would have announced them but since they were just just encouraging as stated in the news release they didn't release the results and moved onto the Telegraph project.

MTB Metals drills Cu mineralization at BA property

Mr. Lawrence Roulston reports

DRILLING ON MTB'S GEORGE COPPER PROJECT IN BC'S GOLDEN TRIANGLE INTERSECTS COPPER IN TWO IDENTIFIED HORIZONS IN ALL THREE HOLES

The three holes recently drilled on MTB Metals Corp.'s George copper project all intersected locally semi-massive sulphide mineralization consisting of pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite. George Copper is part of the MTB's wholly owned BA property, located 30 kilometres from Stewart.

The George copper target is considered a copper-bearing part of an extensive VMS (volcanogenic massive sulphide) system which extends for at least 10 kilometres across the BA property. Drilling was conducted to satisfy assessment work requirements for the BA property. While these results appear encouraging, the primary focus for MTB remains the Telegraph project, where drilling, geophysics and other work is just being concluded for the season. The first results from Telegraph are expected shortly.

The drilling targeted the historic George copper occurrence. In 1919, a 35-metre-long adit was completed along the showing. The Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company of Canada drilled 8,162 feet between 1927 and 1929. During the summer of 1976, two short holes were drilled to test the thickness of the stratabound sulphide zone. Both holes intersected disseminated chalcopyrite mineralization. In hole 1976-103, a 4.3-metre intersection of mostly massive pyrite (70 per cent to 90 per cent pyrite) contains a 2.9-metre interval that assayed 0.62 per cent copper and 0.24 ounce per ton silver (Smitheringale, 1976). The table entitled "Historic drilling on the George copper occurrence" summarizes the historic drilling on the George copper occurrence.
