[{"type":"text","content":"BeMetals Returns Further Positive Drilling Results from Pangeni Copper ProjectVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 14, 2021 / BeMetals Corp. (TSXV:BMET)(OTCQB:BMTLF)(Frankfurt:1OI.F) (the \"Company\" or \"BeMetals) is pleased to announce it has received encouraging exploration drilling results from its 2020 field program at the Pangeni Copper Project (\"Pangeni\" or the \"Project\" or the \"Property\") in Zambia. The laboratory results from the 2020 drilling campaign highlight both the compelling focused exploration potential at the D-Prospect and generated additional priority targets for testing during this year's field program.The Pangeni Project is located on the prospective western extension of the Central African Copperbelt in Zambia (the \"Zambian Copperbelt\") where copper mineralization discovered on the Property is covered by a thin veneer of Kalahari sand.HIGHLIGHTS:Drill hole D3-C1: Interval 1: 3.98 metres grading 0.39% Copper (\"Cu\") from 71.45 metresInterval 2: 3.70 metres grading 0.37% Cu from 153.36 metresStrong motivation for follow-up aircore and core drilling at the D-ProspectNewly identified priority G2 and Q3 targets from 2020 aircore programAircore drilling and field operations to commence in H1 2021Note: See Table 1 below for drill intersection details and QA/QC sectionBeMetals President and CEO, John Wilton stated, \"We are highly encouraged by the results from both our 2020 shallow aircore and follow-up core drilling programs. Core drill hole D3-C1 with intervals of 3.98 metres at 0.39% Cu and 3.70 metres at 0.37% Cu are of specific interest. These two shallow copper intersections are meaningful, as they occur some 850 metres along the same interpreted strike of mineralized zones intersected in holes D2-C1 and D2-C2 during the 2019 field season. D2-C1 intersected 5.50 metres grading 0.53% Cu, and D2-C2 intersected 5.56 metres grading 0.47% Cu. The combined results significantly expand the footprint and potential of the D-Prospect underneath the shallow sand cover in this area.In addition to the successful D-Prospect results, the 2020 aircore program generated two new targets for priority exploration follow-up during the 2021 field season at the G2 and Q3 targets. The G2 target is located at an interpreted formation contact and the Q3 target is a new standalone anomaly associated with a structural target so...
