[{"type":"text","content":" Highlights: Copper Prince property contains two former copper producers - the Prince Mine and the Gerrelts Adit Historical Drilling returned copper values ranging from 1.0% to 4.8% over core lengths of 2.5m to 14.5m Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 2, 2022) - Big Red Mining Corp. (CSE: RED) (FSE: K8J) (the \"Company\" or \"Big Red\") is pleased to announce the continuation of exploration on its Properties in the Algoma area near Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. The main Dobie Lake Copper Property has been expanded by approximately 520 Hectares with the addition of the Copper Prince Property to the south. As a result of the Area of Influence negotiated as part of the Option agreement signed with Rich Copper Exploration Corp. (Dated February 25, 2021) the Copper Prince project has been added to Dobie Lake Copper Property. Location of Copper Prince Property in Relation to Dobie Lake Copper Property The Copper Prince property contains two former copper producers - the Prince Mine and the Gerrelts Adit. The Prince Mine contains an adit at least 200 Meters (\"m\") long which follows a zone of mineralized quartz veins in an east-west direction, while the Garrelts Adit appears to intersect a wide zone of multiple quartz veins and breccia containing copper mineralization. Both areas also have trenching, drilling, and sampling from past work and have returned high-grade copper results from past work. At the Prince Mine the principal vein has been traced for a length of 350m, and ranges in width from 2.4m to 6.0m. There are four mineralized shoots on surface, as follows: (1) 150m long, 2.0m wide, averaging 3% Copper (\"Cu\"); (2) 18m long, 3.4m wide, averaging 1.9 % Cu; (3) 13.7m long, 2.0m wide, averaging 2.3% Cu; (4) 35.5m long, 3.02m wide, averaging 0.9% Cu. Nine drill holes drilled in 1929 gave copper values ranging from 1.0% to 4.8% over core lengths of 2.5m to 14.5m. Weighted average of trench samples taken from the zone 150m west of Rackey Lake was 4.1% Cu, 0.03 oz/ton (0.97 g/t) Au over 2.14m. Weighted average of 4 drill holes under trenches was 2.7% Cu, 0.03 oz/ton (0.97 g/t) Au over 2.77m. The Prince Mine Adit The Gerrelts Adit was developed by J.E. Gerrelts in the early 1970's to access a series of quartz veins which had been discovered by prospectors and drilled in the 1960's. The adit is seen in the base of a 25m ...
