[{"type":"text","content":"Equity Continues to Intersect High-Grade Silver on the Camp Deposit and the New Camp North Target; Begins Fall '24 Drilling on the Silver Queen Project, BCVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 1, 2024) - Equity Metals Corporation (TSXV: EQTY) (\"Equity\") reports today that drilling continues to intersect high-grade mineralization at the Camp Deposit and the newly identified Camp North target, and continues to delineate veins at the George Lake target on its 100% owned Silver Queen Au-Ag project, British Columbia. Assays were returned from three target areas on the property, including additional high-grade intercepts from the Camp Deposit which returned:A 0.7 metre (Est. TT) interval grading 2.7g/t Au, 388g/t Ag, 2.5%Pb and 11.3% Zn (18.4g/t AuEq or 1,372g/t AgEq) within a broader 7.5 metre (est. TT) interval averaging 0.5g/t Au, 63g/t Ag, 0.1% Cu, 0.5% Pb and 2.3% Zn (3.4g/t AuEq or 255g/t AgEq) in drillhole SQ24-125.Drilling confirms lateral continuity over a 90m strike length in a new hangingwall vein segment of the Camp Deposit, which was initially discovered in 2023 drilling but not included in the 2022 Mineral Resource update of the property. The mineralization is shallow, less than 50m below surface, and is open both laterally and at depth. Assays are pending from four drill holes that tested the Camp vein in the Summer '24 program. Only partial assays have been received from three of those holes and additional assays are anticipated over the coming weeks. Strongly precious metal-enriched mineralization was also identified in a new discovery located 300m to the north of the Camp Deposit. Drilling at the Camp North Target returned:A 1.8 metre (downhole thickness) interval averaging 0.4g/t Au, 210g/t Ag, 3.2%Pb and 7.4% Zn (10.2g/t AuEq or 761g/t AgEq) within a broader 8.6 metre (downhole thickness) interval averaging 0.2g/t Au, 67g/t Ag, 1.0% Pb and 4.2% Zn (4.7g/t AuEq or 352g/t AgEq) in drillhole SQ24-128.This is the first reported intercept from this new discovery. Mineralization is open both vertically and laterally for future targeting. Two holes tested the target as part of the 2024 drill program and further assays are pending from both holes. Additional assays were also returned from the George Lake target which include:A 0.3 metre (est. TT) interval grading 1.8g/t Au, 197g/t Ag, 5.4% Pb and 9.7% Zn...
