[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 05, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Turmalina Metals Corp. (“Turmalina”, or the “Company”; TBX-TSXV, TBXXF-OTCQX) is pleased to announce that recent holes in our Phase Two drilling program at the San Francisco project (“San Francisco” or the “Project”) have intersected broad intervals of gold-silver-copper mineralization at the San Francisco de Los Andes (“SFdLA”) breccia. Mineralization within tourmaline breccias tends to be most strongly focused on the roof, margins and ends (‘lobes’) of the breccia pipes (Figure 1). Drill hole SFDH-018 tested the width of the easternmost lobe of the SFdLA breccia pipe and intersected significant gold-silver-copper mineralization (Figure 2) that included: 29m @ 4.2 g/t Au, 222 g/t Ag & 1.4% Cu (8.4 g/t AuEq) from 67m (SFDH-018)° Including 16m @ 5.3 g/t Au, 231 g/t Ag & 0.99% Cu (9.2 g/t AuEq) from 71m Drill holes SFDH-014, SFDH-015 and SFDH-020 tested the centre of the SFdLA breccia and intersected a matrix-supported breccia typical of the core of a tourmaline breccia pipe (Figures 3 to 5), with intercepts that include: 12m @ 2.0 g/t Au, 35 g/t Ag & 0.39% Cu (2.8 g/t AuEq) from 73m (SFDH-014)° And 40m @ 1.3 g/t Au, 83 g/t Ag & 0.43% Cu (2.6 g/t AuEq) from 104m 26m @ 1.2 g/t Au, 40 g/t Ag & 0.44% Cu (2.2 g/t AuEq) from 75m (SFDH-015)° And 17m @ 0.83 g/t Au, 12 g/t Ag & 0.42% Cu (1.4 g/t AuEq) from 136m 19m @ 0.8 g/t Au, 118 g/t Ag & 0.38% Cu (2.6 g/t AuEq) from 93m (SFDH-020)° And 9m @ 0.96 g/t Au, 40 g/t Ag & 0.37% Cu (1.8 g/t AuEq) from 136m° And 11m @ 0.57 g/t Au, 22 g/t Ag & 0.13% Cu (0.9 g/t AuEq) from 174m° And 1.2m @ 6.44 g/t Au, 17 g/t Ag & 0.32% Cu (7.0 g/t AuEq) from 200m Three recently completed drill holes tested the westernmost lobe of the SFdLA breccia pipe, and samples from these holes have been dispatched for analysis. Further intersections are reported in Table 1: Intersections are not true widths and further drilling and geological modelling of the mineralised zones is required to make a determination of the true widths of the drill hole intersections. Drill hole coordinates are shown in Table 2. Dr. Rohan Wolfe, Chief Executive Officer, states: “It’s most encouraging to see the SFdLA breccia pipe widen and develop the classic tourmaline brecci...
