Zonte Metals Defines the K6 Target Based on Soil Data and Prepares Target for Drilling

19.10.2023  |  The Newswire

TheNewswire - October 19, 2023 - Zonte Metals Inc. (TSXV:ZON) ("Zonte" or the "Company") is pleased to announce recent additional soil data results from the K6 target on its Cross Hill Copper Project, in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Terry Christopher, President and CEO comments, "The recent soil data has confirmed a copper-in-soil anomaly coincident with numerous other datasets within the K6 target area. The K6 target was previously drilled in 2019 when two drill holes tested magnetic and gravity geophysical highs, which sit north of the newly define drill target. Drilling at several targets in the Cross Hills Copper Project, between 2019 and 2020, focused exclusively on geophysical anomalies. While high-grade and long intervals of fracture-controlled copper mineralization was discovered in drill core, the Company made a strategic decision to suspend drilling and focus on gaining a more comprehensive understanding the mineralizing system to better define drill targets. To this end, since 2020, numerous additional exploration programs have been conducted, and drill locations in the upcoming drill program at K6 will be derived from an integrated interpretation of multiple datasets. The new K6 target area represents the first site to be drill-tested since 2020, positioned approximately 200-300 meters to the south of the previous two drill locations. The dataset for the K6 target is presently being modelled to help define drill locations, which will be followed by drilling."

A map of the K6 Cu-in-soil anomaly is located below and additional information on the target is found at the Company's website via the following link; https://www.zontemetals.com/projects/cross-hills-copper-property. As illustrated in the map, the K6 soil data shows a Cu-in-soil anomaly about 700m long and up to 250m wide. The anomaly is coincident with structural, geological and geophysical changes as well as surface copper mineralization. Data modeling is in progress to define the drill program, with drilling expected to start shortly.

Project wide, the Company has discovered 11 large targets. Exploration in 2023 has significantly advanced several targets, with only limited additional work needed to define drill locations for these targets. A multifaceted exploration program continues throughout the project, and additional results will be released once the data is in hand and interpreted within the broader context of our comprehensive dataset.
