[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brixton Metals Corporation (TSX-V: BBB, OTCQB: BBBXF) (the “Company” or “Brixton”) is pleased to announce the remaining 2023 drill results from its Camp Creek Copper Porphyry Target on its wholly owned Thorn Project. The project is located in Northwest British Columbia, 90km east of Juneau, Alaska and within the Taku River Tlingit and Tahltan First Nation’s traditional territory. Highlights Step-out drilling in 2023 has expanded copper porphyry mineralization to a 950m by 1050m area at the Camp Creek Target which remains open in multiple directions THN23-285 intersected 717.00m of 0.50% CuEq (0.20% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 1.92 g/t Ag, 458 ppm Mo) Including 248.05m of 0.60% CuEq (0.37% Cu, 0.10 g/t Au, 3.32 g/t Ag, 255 ppm Mo) Hole THN23-277 ended in strong copper mineralization (2m of 0.66% Cu) with strong porphyry indicators and while the hole failed to reach its target depth, it is set up to wedge from 900m depth as a daughter hole early next drill season Chairman and CEO Gary Thompson stated: “2023 proved to be another successful year on the Camp Creek Copper Porphyry Target. We have what appears to be a large mineralized and alteration footprint with limited deep holes testing a buried system. In collaboration with MDRU (UBC’s Mineral Deposit Research Unit) and the recent oversubscribed $14.5 million financing, we look forward to further drill-testing this target during the 2024 field season.” Figure 1. Thorn Project and Copper Target Location Map with Copper Geochemistry Discussion The 2023 program at the Camp Creek Porphyry Target totaled 10,099.68m of drilling from nine holes. This News Release covers the remaining four drill holes for Camp Creek. For previous assays from the 2023 program at Camp Creek see News Release dated September 21st, 2023. Camp Creek is a newly discovered, blind calc-alkalic copper-gold-silver-molybdenum porphyry target with only seventeen holes testing greater than 800m depth since 2019. Drill hole THN23-285 was drilled as a 170m step out to the east from THN22-201 (967.71m of 0.43% CuEq) and a 200m step out to the southeast from THN21-184 (318.25m of 1.03% CuEq within 821.25m of 0.54% CuEq). THN23-285 was drilled to 1602.00m, making it the second deepest hole on the property, with broad vein-hosted and disseminated chalcopyrite-molybdenite ...
