[{"type":"text","content":"BeMetals Receives Further High-Grade Zinc and Precious Metal Drill Results from Borehole SM19-002 at Polymetallic South Mountain Project in IdahoVANCOUVER, CANADA / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2019 / BeMetals Corp. (\"BeMetals\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:BMET)(OTCQB:BMTLF) is pleased to announce further analytical drill results from its underground drill program at the Company's high-grade South Mountain Zinc-Silver Project (\"South Mountain\" or the \"Project\") in southwestern Idaho, U.S.A. These recently received results represent the remaining two zones of high-grade mineralization from borehole SM19-002. The drilling program is ongoing with further mineralized zones from other boreholes under geological logging, sampling and laboratory analysis. Further borehole results are expected to be released in batches as they become available.DRILLING HIGHLIGHTS:Borehole SM19-002: Zone 3 intersected 10.56 metres grading 11.42% Zinc (\"Zn\"), 123 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") Silver (\"Ag\"), 4.43 g/t Gold (\"Au\"), 0.36% Lead (\"Pb\"), and 0.52% Copper (\"Cu\")Borehole SM19-002: Zone 2 intersected 3.78 metres grading 5.45% Zn, 145 g/t Ag, 8.39 g/t Au, 0.58% Pb, and 0.15% CuBorehole SM19-002: Zone 1 (Previously reported) intersected 10.51 metres grading 17.81% Zn, 226 g/t Ag, 2.41 g/t Au, 1.59% Pb, and 0.16% CuNote: ALS Global completed the analytical work with the core samples processed at their preparation facility in Reno, Nevada, U.S.A. All analytical and assay procedures are conducted in the ALS laboratory in North Vancouver, BC. Reported widths are drilled core lengths as true widths are unknown at this time.John Wilton, President, CEO and Director of BeMetals stated, \"These additional results from zones 2 and 3 were pending at the time of the release of the zone 1 data from borehole SM19-002. They again confirm the high-grades associated with the polymetallic South Mountain deposit and emphasize the significant precious metal component to the mineralization. This hole has three significant zones of massive sulphide mineralization. Interestingly zones 2 and 3 returned even higher tenor gold grades, of 8.39 g/t over 3.78m and 4.43 g/t over 10.56m respectively, than zone 1.Additionally zone 3 includes 0.52% copper over the same 10.56m interval as the high-grade zinc and precious metal mineralization. The copper appears dominantly pres...
