Filo Mining Kicks Off 2019/2020 Field Season - Drilling Underway

13.11.2019  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, Nov. 13, 2019 - Filo Mining Corp. (TSXV: FIL, Nasdaq First North Growth Market: FIL) ("Filo Mining", or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drilling has now started at its 100% owned Filo del Sol project located on the border of Region III, Chile and San Juan Province, Argentina. Three diamond drills are on site, with a fourth scheduled to arrive this week. The geophysics crew has also mobilized to the project and the planned 3D induced polarization survey has started. A drone magnetometer survey of the project area is scheduled to begin in early January. Refer to the attached plan map outlining target areas for the 2019/2020 program. View PDF

Commenting on the upcoming program, CEO Adam Lundin stated, "I'm excited to report that we are off to an early start and drilling is now underway at Filo del Sol. We will soon have all 4 rigs turning; and with a plan to drill over 10,000 metres this season, this is the most extensive exploration program in Company history."

Please refer to the Company's news release dated August 8, 2019 for details and objectives of the program, along with a detailed list and description of target areas. Three holes are underway in the Filo Deep area, testing for extensions to both the high-grade gold mineralization encountered last season in holes FSDH028 and FSDH030 and for copper-gold mineralization underlying these holes, both of which ended in strong mineralization. 

The fourth drill will begin drilling at the newly discovered Tamberias West zone where surface mapping and trenching during the past season encountered steam-heated alteration identical to that which outcrops above the Filo del Sol deposit.  Reinterpretation of the fault systems as part of a regional geological mapping effort last season has resulted in the identification of a north-easterly structure (Portozuelo Fault) which may control the geometry of the deposit. This puts the steam-heated alteration in context as the possible southwestern continuation of the Filo del Sol deposit and makes it a high priority drill target.

Assay results from the current drilling will be released early in the new year.

These factors are not, and should not be construed as being, exhaustive. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that would cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended.
