ValOre Reports Near-Surface High-Grade PGE Mineralization in Three Additional Drill Holes at Salvador Discovery, Pedra Branca Project

17.10.2023  |  GlobeNewswire
46.05 m at 1.96 g/t 2PGE+Au from 77.15 m, including 10 m at 5.02 g/t 2PGE+Au

VANCOUVER, Oct. 17, 2023 - ValOre Metals Corp. ("ValOre"; TSX?V: VO; OTCQB: KVLQF; Frankfurt: KEQ0, "the Company") today reported assay results from the Salvador Target ("Salvador") as part of the 2023 Phase 1 drill program at ValOre's 100%-owned Pedra Branca Platinum Group Elements ("PGE", "2PGE+Au") Project ("Pedra Branca") in northeastern Brazil.

"PGE assays from all four core holes received to date at Salvador confirm consistent, near-surface, high-grade PGE mineralization at this new discovery," stated Thiago Diniz, Exploration Manager, ValOre Metals Corp.. "The evolution of Salvador from concept to discovery demonstrates ValOre's proven exploration methodology and the team's ability to identify and advance significant resource targets property-wide. We look forward to continuing to grow Salvador through drilling for potential inclusion in our next mineral resource update."

Salvador PGE Target Highlights

  • Assay results received for three additional core holes drilled at Salvador include:
    • 46.05 metres ("m") at 1.96 grams per tonne palladium + platinum + gold ("g/t 2PGE+Au") with mineralization starting from ("from") 77.15 m, including 10 m at 5.02 g/t 2PGE+Au from 88.65 m in drill hole DD23MES04;
    • 49.6 m at 1.25 g/t 2PGE+Au from 47.2 m, including 15.8 m at 2.22 g/t 2PGE+Au from 55.2 m in drill hole DD23MES03;
    • 78.95 m at 0.96 g/t 2PGE+Au from 64 m, including 41.5 m at 1.34 g/t 2PGE+Au from 64.5 m in drill hole DD23MES02;
  • A total of 1,056 m were drilled in 8 holes, with target ultramafic ("UM") rocks intersected in 7 of those holes. Assays are pending for the remaining 3 of 7 UM-bearing holes, spanning 400 m of strike within a 1.3-kilometre-long ("km") mineralized trend;
  • Assay results received for the remaining 2 of 4 Salvador surface trenches (totalling 145 m that exposed 120 m of UM rocks in all trenches) include:
    • 14 m at 0.66 g/t 2PGE+Au, including 5 m at 1.15 g/t 2PGE+Au in trench TR23MES03;
    • 27 m at 0.50 g/t 2PGE+Au in trench TR23MES04;
  • Follow-up mapping, soil sampling and Trado® augering are in progress, focusing on the open trends to the north and south of Salvador's main zone.
