[{"type":"text","content":"Nevada Silver Provides Update on Drilling, Permitting and Battery Testwork at the High-Grade Emily Manganese Project, Minnesota, USAThree diamond core drill holes have been completed and samples submitted for analyses as drilling progresses on schedule.Drill holes have all intersected high-grade manganese mineralization close to anticipated depths.Metallurgical and battery test work will resume when the majority of planned drill holes in the eastern portion of the deposit are completed.Barr Engineering will undertake environmental studies on recently acquired land in preparation for additional drilling.TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 8, 2023 / Nevada Silver Corporation (\"NSC\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:NSC)(OTCQB:NVDSF) is pleased to provide an update on the inaugural drill program, and other technical and permitting activities at its high-grade Emily Manganese project in Minnesota, USA. The Emily Project (\"Emily\") is located in the Cuyuna Iron Range of central Minnesota, USA (Figure 1), an area with a rich mining history and support from established local infrastructure, a skilled mining workforce and abundant power and gas.Figure 1. The Emily Project is part of the Emily District of the Cuyuna Iron Range in Crow Wing County, Central Minnesota. The Emily District includes the highest-grade manganese resource in North America. A total of 2,243.9 feet (684 metres) of diamond core drilling has been completed to date at the Emily Project. The initial three holes (Figure 2) have been completed to target depth and samples forwarded to the ALS laboratory facility in Reno, NV for analyses.Figure 2. Location map showing land under NSC control, Emily Iron Formation bedrock which is the host strata to manganese mineralization and locations of the three completed NSC drill holes. Visible manganese mineralization, including high-grade manganese oxide (manganite), was intersected in all the completed drill holes (Fgure 3).Figure 3. High-grade manganese oxide mineralization identified as mostly manganite, in drill hole NSC-23001 (between 350-358 feet). With occurrences of apparent high-grade and considerable thicknesses of mineralization in the completed holes, NSC is pleased to announce fast-tracking of metallurgical and battery test work now due to commence at the completion of the current phase of drilling in the eastern portion of the...
