Capitan Mining Drills 62.5m of 0.43 g/t Aueq Including 9.1m of 0.95 g/t Aueq at the Capitan Gold Deposit, Peñoles Project

14.10.2021  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, October 14, 2021 - Capitan Mining Inc. (TSXV: CAPT) ("Capitan" or the "Company") is pleased to report results for five reverse-circulation (RC) drill holes from the Capitan oxide-gold deposit, at its 100%-owned Peñoles project in Durango, Mexico.

Highlights:

  • Hole 21-CARC-36 intersected 62.5m of 0.43g/t Aueq, including a higher-grade interval of 9.1m of 0.95 g/t Aueq
  • Holes 21-CARC-35, 37 and 38 successfully expanded gold mineralization down-dip between 50 and 150m
  • Hole 21-CARC-38 increased total length of Capitan deposit to approximately 500m down-dip, on cross-section 250
  • Mineralization continues to remain open down-dip and on-strike, mainly in the south-eastern portion of the deposit

Discussion

All holes reported herein were designed to either extend Capitan style mineralization down-dip/down plunge along section lines, or as infill hole(s) that attempt to refine the boundaries and extend the continuity of high-grade shoots that are nested within the Capitan deposit mineralized envelope.

Down-dip Extensions

Drill holes 21-CARC-35, 37 and 38 were designed to expand mineralization down-dip on three different cross sections within the Capitan zone. All holes successfully intersected both Hanging wall style and Capitan Style mineralization down-dip from previously drilled holes. These holes extended mineralization between 50 and 150m along their respective sections, with mainly oxide-style mineralization being returned in these holes.

Hole 21-CARC-38 expanded mineralization about 150m down-dip from hole 21-CARC-26, bringing the total length of the mineralization in that cross section to about 500m from surface.

Strategic infill: Defining High-grade shoots

Drill hole 21-CARC-36 was an in-fill hole designed to better define a moderately southwest plunging, high-grade shoot, that it is located within the center of the Capitan deposit. This shoot has been interpreted to represent the intersection of the main Capitan Fault and the east-northeast trending Gully Fault, which is believed to also control high-grade Ag mineralization at the Jesus-Maria deposit. The hole successfully intersected the high-grade shoot, returning 62.5m of 0.43g/t Aueq, including a higher-grade interval of 9.1m of 0.95 g/t Aueq.

Expansion To the North-West

Drill hole 21-CARC-34 was designed to target the on-strike extension of the Capitan main zone approximately 95m to the west of hole 21-CARC-20. The hole encountered a steeply dipping post-mineral fault and remained in post-mineral cover through most of its length. No significant values were returned related to the Hanging wall or Capitan main zone.

The sample pulps are then transported to the Bureau Veritas' laboratory in Vancouver, where they are assayed for gold by fire assay with atomic absorption finish (FA430 assay method code; 0.005 to 10 ppm detection limit). Samples over 10 ppm Au are assayed with gravimetric finish (Assay code FA530). All samples are also assayed by ICP-ES (code AQ300) for a suite of 33 elements.

All summarized intervals reported in this press release were calculated using a 0.10 ppm Au cut-off grade. Intervals contain no more than 3 metres of internal dilution. High grades have not been capped.
