Millennial Precious Metals Corp. Intersects 0.46 g/t Au Over 189.0m

08.03.2022  |  CNW
Including 1.35 g/t Oxide Au Over 33.5m at Mountain View Project

TORONTO, March 8, 2022 - Millennial Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:MPM, OTCQB:MLPMF) ("Millennial" or the "Company") is pleased to provide results from the ongoing resource conversion and exploration drill program currently being conducted at its Mountain View project located in Nevada, USA, as a part of the fully funded 20,000m maiden drill program. The 2022 drill program at Mountain View consists of 2,700m with the objective of confirming RC grades, validating grade continuity, and extending the mineralization laterally to increase the pit size. Millennial expects to continue to release drill results from the program monthly.

Highlights:

Drillhole MVCD-0021 returned an intercept of 0.46 g/t Au over 189.0m including a high-grade intercept of 1.35 g/t oxide Au over 33.5m and 0.58 g/t transition (mixed oxide-fresh material) Au over 23.9m (refer to Table 1 for detailed interval results).

  • MVCD-0021 was designed to target a poorly defined area between the two primary high-grade brecciated bodies in the center of the deposit. The results demonstrate excellent grade continuity within the Rhyolite body outside of the brecciated area.
  • The high-grade zone is characterized by a highly silicified Rhyolite and oxidized pyrite within the matrix.
  • Oxidation profile reaches a depth of 193.9m (down hole) and is followed by a mixed transition zone (approximately 50% oxide, 50% fresh rock) which extends to the end of the hole at a depth of 396.2m.
  • MVCD-0021 intersects the existing pit shell at an approximate depth of 235.0m (down hole) before the new intercept of 0.58 g/t transition (mixed oxide-fresh material) Au over 23.9m.
  • Excluding the high-grade intercepts, the residual grade of hole MVCD-0021 is 0.21 g/t Au over 131.6m, which is above the cut-off grade of 0.14 g/t Au (described in the November 2020 NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Mountain View Project filed on SEDAR) and is therefore economic ore in a potential heap-leach mining scenario.
  • Actual geometry of the main high-grade hydrothermal breccia (>1.0 g/t Au) is approximately 60m x 180m x 140m. MVCD-0021 stepped out ~80m from the main high-grade breccia zone, and ~40m from the secondary high-grade mineralized body. The zone remains open at depth, to the north-west.
  • The existing block model at Mountain View is based on historical results, drilled primarily with RC (reverse circulation) rigs. Millennial's program is being completed principally with DDH (diamond drillhole) rigs.
  • Consistent with previous observations, mineralized Rhyolite is situated directly below the alluvium, which is composed of sand, gravels and boulders as seen in Figure 1. As a result, it is expected that pre-stripping for open-pit mining will not require conventional drilling and blasting, potentially reducing mining costs.
  • Gold mineralization at Mountain View is hosted by flow-banded Rhyolite with strong oxidation persisting throughout the majority of the drillholes.
  • Minor, post-mineral faulting has broken the host rock which is expected to have a positive impact on gold leaching and reduce processing costs.

Jason Kosec, President, CEO & Director of Millennial stated, "we are pleased with the outcome of drillhole MVCD-0021. With ~190m at an average grade of ~0.50 g/t of primarily oxide Au, this hole continues to demonstrate the excellent continuity of high-quality economic ore at Mountain View. We are very proud of our technical team at site who continue to successfully manage the aggressive maiden drill program. We expect the team to complete the drill program at Mountain View in Q2 2022 and begin drilling at Wildcat shortly thereafter."

Mountain View Project Overview:

Mountain View is located within the Deep Hole mining district in Nevada, 24km north of the town of Gerlach within Washoe County. The project area is covered by a 3,169-acre land package consisting of 154 unpatented claims, located on federally owned lands administered by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Gold-dominated mineralization at Mountain View consists of low sulphidation epithermal veins and disseminated oxide and sulphide mineralization hosted in Cenozoic volcanic rocks. Mountain View has an Inferred mineral resource estimate containing 427,000 ounces of Au (oxide) (23.2 million tonnes at 0.57 g/t Au; effective date of November 15, 2020).
