[{"type":"text","content":"Hannan Channel Samples 69.1 m @ 2.4 g/t Gold Including 26.0 m @ 5.4 g/t Gold From New Alkalic Epithermal Gold Find at Previsto in PeruVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / February 6, 2025 / Hannan Metals Limited's (\"Hannan\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF) is pleased to report a significant gold mineralization at its 100%-owned Previsto project in Peru.Channel sampling has revealed high-grade alkalic-type epithermal gold mineralization with 69.1 m at 2.4 g/t gold (\"Au\") including 26.0 m at 5.4 g/t Au. The finding, which remains open in all directions, is situated within a larger 6 km x 6 km epithermal-porphyry cluster, further indicating the potential for a major new mineral districtHighlights:Significant Gold Results: Two channels sampled continuous outcrop of alkalic-type epithermal gold mineralization:A north-south channel (CH15486) assayed (Figures 2 to 5):69.1 m @ 2.4 g/t Au and 13 g/t Ag (uncut), including:26.0 m @ 5.4 g/t Au and 27 g/t Ag (lower cut 3 m @ 0.8 ppm Au)The high-grade nature of mineralization is demonstrated by peak assays including:0.7 m @ 16.1 g/t Au, 60 g/t Ag, 48 g/t TeThe channel remains open to both the north (4.8 g/t Au last assay) and south (0.8 g/t Au last assay) and a grab sample of outcrop located 60 m SSW assayed 0.8 g/t Au, 7 g/t Ag and 3.8 g/t Te.An east-west channel (CH16401) that joins the northern end of CH15486 assayed (Figures 2 to 5):7.0 m @ 1.2 g/t Au and 19 g/t Ag (lower cut 2.5 m @ 0.3 g/t Au), including:The channel remains open to both the east (1.7 g/t Au last assay) and the west.Large System: The channel sampled gold sits within a larger 6 km x 6 km epithermal-porphyry cluster, positioned on the northern edge of a 4 km x 4 km gold-in-soil anomaly (>0.1 g/t Au). This suggests significant potential for a large-scale mineralized system.Style and Quality: The alkalic-type epithermal gold mineralization is particularly encouraging, as these systems can develop into large, high-grade deposits globally. The mineralogy suggests minimal erosion, indicating the potential preservation of a significant vertical extent of mineralization. Multiple untested targets surrounding the gold mineralization, including copper porphyry mineralization 1.3 km northwest (192 m @ 0.16% Cu) and a gold-copper target 2.6 km east, underscore the district-scale opportunity.Strategic Position: This ...
