[{"type":"text","content":"BeMetals Identifies Compelling Copper Exploration Targets from Shallow Aircore Drilling Results at Pangeni Project in ZambiaVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 6, 2021 / BeMetals Corp. (TSXV:BMET)(OTCQB:BMTLF)(FRA:1OI.F) (the \"Company\" or \"BeMetals\") is pleased to announce the results from a phase of some 4,350 metres of shallow aircore drilling recently completed at the Pangeni Copper Project (\"Project\" or the \"Property\") in Zambia. This aircore program was designed to explore for extensions of copper mineralization discovered by the Company under thin Kalahari sand cover at several prospects, including the D Prospect, and to test several newly generated copper targets. The Pangeni Project is located in an area representing westerly extensions to the prolific Zambian Copperbelt.HIGHLIGHTS OF THE 2021 PANGENI PROJECT AIRCORE PROGRAMD-Prospect returns highest tenor aircore copper target in hole D7-04 on the Property to date of 3,183 parts per million (ppm) over 2 metres with 1 metre at 4,363ppmPotential D-Prospect extension zone identified in aircore hole D3-15 of 1,217ppm copper over 3 metres with 1 metre at 1,344ppm some 1.4 kilometres southeast of previously drilled mineralizationNewly identified F - TargetNewly identified Q - Target some 3km southeast of the SW-ProspectJohn Wilton, President and CEO of BeMetals stated, \"We are encouraged with the results from the 2021 phase of shallow aircore drilling below the thin sand cover that has delivered a number of robust bedrock copper targets. These targets are potential extensions and/or potential vectors to higher-grade zones of copper mineralization we discovered in previous phases of drilling. In addition, a number of new standalone targets well situated geologically within the Property have been identified. To follow-up on these recent aircore results, we have commenced a program of approximately 1,400 metres of core drilling to test these compelling copper targets. We look forward to the results of the core drilling program that has the potential to both expand the footprint of the D-Prospect mineralization and test the exciting newly identified copper targets.This exploration program continues to be jointly funded by BeMetals and Japan, Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (\"JOGMEC\") that has allowed for acceleration of our exploration program.
