[{"type":"text","content":"Metals Creek Drills 2.64 g/t Gold over 27.90 Meters at Dona LakeThunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 25, 2022) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) (OTCQB: MCREF) (FSE: M1C1) (the \"Company\" or Metals Creek) is pleased to announce additional diamond drill results for drill hole DL22-027 from the phase III diamond drill program at the Dona Lake Gold project (See News Release November 08, 2021).Results from drill hole DL22-027 continue to further define high grade gold mineralization south of the mine workings at the past producing Dona Lake Gold mine. This hole intersected the Main Zone stratigraphy 368 meters below surface and returned a core length intercept of 5.18 grammes per ton(g/t) gold (Au) over 5.33 meters(m) (403.45 - 408.78m). This was a part of a broader zone of mineralization of 2.64 g/t Au over 27.90m (399.95 - 427.85m). (See Table 1 Significant Results, figure 1 Schematic Longitudinal and figure 2 schematic x section). Mineralization is hosted within silicate-sulfide iron formation and characterized by stringer to locally disseminated pyrrhotite ranging from 1 to 4% with local pyrite. Magnetite rich sections with local pyrrhotite stringers are also present. Aside from pyrrhotite mineralization, alteration consists of strong hornblende and grunerite with local garnet alteration. This phase III diamond drill program has successfully defined additional high-grade gold mineralization south of the Dona Lake mine workings. Deeper drilling targeting Main Zone stratigraphy below the lowermost mine workings has further extended high grade gold mineralization down plunge to a vertical depth of 753m (See news release April 5, 2022) from recently reported drill hole DL22-025 returning a high-grade down hole intercept of 8.11 g/t over 9.51m. This hole represents the deepest hole to date on the Dona Lake property with gold mineralization remaining open at depth.Figure 1 Schematic LongitudinalTo view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/943/121531_65412c43f4d3fa79_002full.jpgFigure 2 Schematic Cross-sectionTo view an enhanced version of Figure 2, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/943/121531_65412c43f4d3fa79_003full.jpgTable 1 - Significant ResultsDrillhole NumberMeters FromMeters ToTotal MetersG/T GoldZoneDL22-027399.95427.8527.90 2.64Mainincluding403...
