[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, British Columbia, August 20, 2024 – TheNewswire – Manning Ventures Inc. (the “Company” or “Manning”) (CSE: MANN; US: MANVF; Frankfurt: 1H5) is pleased to update its shareholders on the initial drill program planning at the Copper Hill Project located within the Walker Lane Trend, southern Nevada, USA. Plans are underway to drill inclined holes testing the skarn on the contact between the limestone and the intrusive for the Northern and the Southern Zones. The two zones outline target areas which host significant copper values (0.5 to >1.0% copper) in intense skarn alteration. Each zone is over 1500 meters (>5000 feet) long and is defined by prominent gravity and magnetic geophysical signatures as reported previously by Manning. Specific drill hole locations will be defined utilizing all the data collected, and the historic data accumulated by the Company. Sites will be chosen to drill-test the targets with the most favorable geochemistry, geophysics, and geology. Specific sites will be permitted with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. Access and drill sites will utilize the proscribed Notice Level process that allows for up to five (5) acres of disturbance. Once submitted, the Notice Level plan is typically accepted and authorized in less than one month. The Company anticipates confirming the exact drill locations over the next few weeks and will provide details once the permit application has been submitted.

As drill data is collected, we’ll sharpen the focus to the most prospective areas. We’re certainly eager to begin the next phase of exploration at Copper Hill and look forward to receiving permit approval,” continued Mr. Klenman.Image 1: Phase one proposed drill targets, Copper Hill Project, Nevada, USA Recent geological mapping has identified four primary rock units within Triassic Luning limestone which was intruded by a Jurassic igneous complex which was then overlain by Neogene age Volcanic rocks and Quarternary aged unconsolidated gravels.
