[{"type":"text","content":" MONTREAL, March 31, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kintavar Exploration Inc. (the “Corporation” or “Kintavar”) (TSX-V: KTR) (FRANKFURT: 58V), is pleased to announced drilling results for drill holes MS-19-53 to MS-19-60. The drilling program has now been completed and all the samples have been sent out for assays before the provincial working restrictions due to the COVID19 virus took place. A total of 5,750m were drilled including 3,470m in the Sherlock area, testing the shallow dipping sedimentary units model, and another 2,280m were drilled in the Conan/Elementary and the SHK-34 trench area, investigating the zones discovered during the summer 2019 work. Results for the remaining 31 holes are expected in April. Highlights: MS-19-54: 23.0m @ 0.57% Cu & 5.33 g/t Ag starting from 27.0m MS-19-56: 45.45m @ 0.45% Cu & 3.85 g/t Ag starting from 43.80m Mineralized zones envelope width varies between 50 and 75 m Mineralized zones intersected across 300m linear from South to North System remains open at depth to the North and laterally to the East and West Drilling results for additional 31 holes are expected in April “The Sherlock zone continues to deliver thickness, grade and size. The interpretation from the structural work in summer of 2019 has been confirmed with this drilling program as we can see in both the long section and the cross section presented. Every single drill hole to date from this program successfully intersected the mineralized unit. We are very encouraged by this and look forward to putting the entire picture together with the upcoming remaining results.” comments Kiril Mugerman, President & CEO of Kintavar. Sherlock Zone Drill holes MS-19-53 to 60 (shown in Figure 1), provided information that allowed to complete a long section (East to West) at the Southern part of the system or the beginning of the thickenings (Figure 2). The mineralized horizons begin at surface and is found within the first hundred meters of the surface as the system remains open to the west. In addition, these drill holes completed a full cross section that covers over 300m (North to South) that is fully cross cutting the mineralized envelope (Figure 3). Section 3+50E shows that the mineralized envelope has a thickness of 50 to 75m comprising of 3 to 4 horizons including the central horizon that can reach over 40m in thickness with a...
