drills 98.3 m of 7.2 g/t Pt+Pd+Au at Crean MAGNA INTERSECTS HIGH GRADE PGM FOOTWALL MINERALIZATION AT CREAN HILL
Magna Mining Inc. has released first assays received from drilling on the 109 Footwall (FW) zone at the Crean Hill mine. Drill hole MCR-22-010 was targeted within the near surface 109 FW Zone Mineral Resource and intersected mineralization grading 0.4 % Ni, 0.5 % Cu, 7.2 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 98.3 metres, including higher grade intervals grading 0.8 % Ni, 0.8 % Cu, 12.7 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 44.0 metres, including 3.7 % Ni, 2.8 % Cu, 20.2 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 7.1 metres. The 109 FW Zone at Crean Hill is another distinct footwall zone, located proximal to the Main Zone.
Highlights:
Drill hole MCR-22-010, intersected 0.4 % Ni, 0.5 % Cu, 7.2 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 98.3 metres, including higher grade intervals grading 0.8 % Ni, 0.8 % Cu, 12.7 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 44.0 metres, including 3.7 % Ni, 2.8 % Cu, 20.2 g/t Pt+Pd+Au over 7.1 metres in the 109 FW Zone.
The 109 FW Zone represents an area of high-grade mineralization extending into the footwall breccia that is associated with the Main Zone.
The 109 FW Zone is the second, separate footwall zone tested by Magna at Crean Hill, confirming the presence of multiple FW breccia corridors that will be further tested with the 2023 drill program.
While the current 109 FW Zone Mineral Resource has been defined to the 365m, historical drilling indicates this style of mineralization is open at depth and has additional strike length potential.
