Emerita Resources Announces Initial Diamond Drilling Results at Salobro Zinc Project, Brazil

23.05.2018  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO, May 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Emerita Resources Corp. (“Emerita” or the “Company”) (TSXV:EMO) announces that it has received the initial diamond drilling results from its drill program at its Salobro zinc project located in Minas Gerais State, Brazil (Figure 1) (the “Salobro Project”).

Drilling results to date

The phase 1 drill program contemplates 3,500 meters (23 drillholes) of diamond drilling intended to expand the existing resource. The drill program also includes four drillholes required for QA/QC to complete a NI 43-101 compliant resource calculation and six large diameter (PQ) drillholes for metallurgical testwork (400 Kg).

The drill program is progressing as planned. To date, 2,133.90 meters have been drilled (15 drillholes) and assay results for two drill holes have been received by Emerita (Figures 2 and 3).

Drillhole EMO-SALO-DDH-001 is an in-fill hole that intersected two mineralized zones which together extend over a core interval of 9.62 meters, with higher grade mineralization at the upper and lower parts of the zone separated by a 3.6 meter wide weakly mineralized section in the center of the intercept. Vale’s historical drill hole PRM-SALO-FD-009, which was drilled within 24 meters of this intercept, returned 13.92 meters grading 10.39 % Zn and 2.13 % Pb. Vale's drillhole was not surveyed for deviation.

Drillhole EMO-SALO-DDH-002 was planned to test the up-dip extent of mineral resources at Orebody 1. The hole successfully intercepted mineralization at 108 meters (100 meters vertical) extending the mineralized zone approximately 30 meters up dip.

The key deliverable for the ongoing exploration program will be to complete a mineral resource estimate that meets NI 43-101 standards. Emerita is planning to release its inaugural mineral resource estimate at the Salobro Project in July 2018. A NI 43-101 technical report in respect of the Salobro Project entitled “Technical Report on Salobro Zinc Project” dated March 23, 2017 was prepared by Carlos H.C. Costa, P.Geo., and is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company’s website.

Based on a historical mineral resource estimate, the Salobro zinc-lead deposit is estimated to contain 8.3 million tonnes grading 7.12% zinc and lead. A “qualified person”, as defined in NI 43-101, has not done sufficient work on behalf of Emerita to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource and Emerita is not treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource or mineral reserve. Further work must be completed in order to demonstrate whether a reasonable expectation for commercial extraction exists. The mineral resource estimate is a historical estimate and should not be relied upon. A summary of the historical resource estimate can be found on the Company’s website in a report entitled “Mineralizações De Zinco E Chumbo Do Depósito Salobro, Porteirinha (Mg) (2006)”.
