Trevali Intersects 21 Metres of Massive Sulphide Mineralization in New Zones at Stratmat Deposit

25.11.2014  |  Marketwired

Highlights include: 6.2 metres of 7.72% Zn, 3.29% Pb and 0.5% Cu; 5 metres of 3.58% Cu and 0.68 g/t Au; and 3.6 metres of 16.74% Zn, 5.86% Pb, 115.6 g/t Ag and 1.31 g/t Au

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Nov 25, 2014) - Trevali Mining Corporation ("Trevali" or the "Company") (TSX:TV)(OTCQX:TREVF)(LMA:TV)(FRANKFURT:4TI) provides an update of its Stratmat Zinc-Lead-Silver-Copper-Gold deposit in the Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick, Canada where resource definition and expansion drilling continues to define new massive sulphide lenses outside of the 2009 resource estimate (Figures 1 & 2).

The S-5 lens is the second new mineralized body to be identified by ongoing exploration work. Situated in the Central Zone between the S1 and Main Zones at a depth of approximately 300 metres, the target was identified during compilation of historic data, 3D geological modelling and downhole electro-magnetics (DHEM) (Figures 1 & 2).

Hole ST-785, the first hole to be drilled in this area of the project since approximately 1989, targeted a strong electro-magnetic conductor and intersected an aggregate of 40 metres of massive sulphide lenses within which higher grade intervals occur (Figure 1 & Table 1). Mineralization is truncated on its footwall by a post-mineral sulphide rich fault. Both above and below the principal S-5 lens the hole intersected multiple 1-to-4-metre thick zones of massive sulphide mineralization that also merit follow up work. S-5 remains open for expansion.

Follow-up drilling (ST-793) successfully intersected two zones of massive sulphide mineralization 6-metres and 36-metres thick respectively. Assays are pending and DHEM surveys and follow up drilling are currently underway. Based on the limited drilling to date the S5 zone has been intersected over approximately 50-metres of strike and extends over 150-metres of dip averaging approximately 25-metres thick. It remains open for expansion both up and down dip leaving excellent potential to expand upon this emerging zone.

At New Zone, hole ST-782 intersected multiple narrow sulphide intervals including a 3.6-metre interval grading 16.7% Zn, 5.8% Pb, 115.6 g/t Ag and 1.31 g/t Au (Table 1). This hole tested the extension of mineralization from both the Main Zone and the New Zone, and the high grade intercept correlates with the possible down dip extension of the Main Zone. The most recent drilling has extended the New Zone over 125-metres strike and 150-metres dip with sulphide thicknesses averaging 15 metres, it remains open for expansion along dip.

Additional priority exploration targets have been identified between the S-5 lens and the New Zones and work is currently underway.

Such forward-looking statements and information include, but are not limited to statements as to: the accuracy of estimated mineral reserves and resources, anticipated results of future exploration, and forecast future metal prices, anticipated results of future electrical sales and expectations that environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-economic, political, marketing or other issues will not materially affect estimates of mineral reserves. These statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.

These statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies. Many factors, both known and unknown, could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements that are or may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements contained in this news release and the company has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: fluctuations in spot and forward markets for silver, zinc, base metals and certain other commodities (such as natural gas, fuel oil and electricity); fluctuations in currency markets (such as the Peruvian sol versus the U.S. dollar); risks related to the technological and operational nature of the Company's business; changes in national and local government, legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States, Peru or other countries where the Company may carry on business in the future; risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining (including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected geological or structural formations, pressures, cave-ins and flooding); risks relating to the credit worthiness or financial condition of suppliers, refiners and other parties with whom the Company does business; inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks and hazards; employee relations; relationships with and claims by local communities and indigenous populations; availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and labour; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits and the presence of laws and regulations that may impose restrictions on mining,; diminishing quantities or grades of mineral reserves as properties are mined; global financial conditions; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the Company; the Company's ability to complete and successfully integrate acquisitions and to mitigate other business combination risks; challenges to, or difficulty in maintaining, the Company's title to properties and continued ownership thereof; the actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations, and changes in project parameters to deal with unanticipated economic or other factors; increased competition in the mining industry for properties, equipment, qualified personnel, and their costs. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty or reliance on forward-looking statements. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, described or intended. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements or information to reflect changes in assumptions or changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such statements or information, other than as required by applicable law.

Trevali's production plans at Caribou-Halfmile-Stratmat and Santander are based only on Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources and not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred Mineral Resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is therefore no certainty that the conclusions of the production plans and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) will be realized. Additionally where Trevali discusses exploration/expansion potential, any potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

We advise US investors that while the terms "measured resources", "indicated resources" and "inferred resources" are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the US Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. US investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the material in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. The securities described herein have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state and may not be offered or sold within the United States, absent such registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
