Mr. Thomas Ullrich reports:
Diamond drilling intersects new zones of copper at depth as the deep search EM survey identifies a 1,300m x 500m anomaly for drill testing
HIGHLIGHTS
- 100% hit rate continues for the deep diamond drilling with thick intervals of visual copper mineralization intersected at depth below the known near-surface copper deposits
- The drilling confirms the large lateral extent of the Storm copper system at depth - now intersected over 10 square kilometres - and highlights the potential of Storm to host large-scale stratigraphic and structurally hosted high-grade copper deposits similar to those in the Central African Copperbelt
- Drill hole ST24-01 has intersected a combined total of 21.3 metres ("m") of visual copper mineralization , which includes:
- 6.37m of visual copper sulfide from 293.7m downhole, and
- 2.43m of abundant visual copper sulfide from 302m downhole
- 12.5m of visual copper sulfide from 311m downhole, including
- 4.6m of abundant visual native copper and copper sulfides from 315.4m downhole
- Drill hole ST24-02 has intersected a combined total of 99.2m of visual copper sulfide , which includes highlights:
- 1.1m of abundant visual copper sulfide from 195.5m downhole, and
- 1.3m of abundant visual copper sulfide from 204m downhole, and
- 17.1m of moderate to abundant visual copper sulfide from 404.3m downhole
- The deep search phase of the Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) survey has defined a 1,300m x 500m anomaly at depth below the Cirrus Deposit and The Gap Prospect, with target drilling now underway
- Thomas Ullrich, Chief Executive Officer of Aston Bay, commented :"The first two deep diamond drill holes of this season have hit an impressive amount of visual copper mineralization of the same style as we see in the high-grade near-surface deposits. When added to the five deep holes drilled over the 2022 and 2023 seasons in a 10 square kilometre area, all of which hit copper and associated sulfide mineralization at depth, the "Storm Deeps" drilling is developing into a compelling exploration story.
"The two new holes were drilled on structural and stratigraphic targets before the completion of the new deep-looking geophysical surveys that have yielded large, strong anomalies at the same stratigraphic level as the copper intercepts in the deep holes. These electromagnetic surveys have proven very successful in targeting copper mineralization at Storm, and I expect the upcoming deep holes, including one currently underway, will benefit from improved targeting of potentially higher-grade and larger zones of copper mineralization. I am eager to see what the drill rig reveals in the coming weeks."
