[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - April 4, 2023 - Molten Metals Corp. (the “Company”) (CSE:MOLT) (FSE:Y44) (ISIN:CA60872A1066) is pleased to announce the results from the work undertaken by Resourceful Geoscience Solutions, to model & digitize historical diamond drilling and mine workings at Molten’s West Gore antimony project as stated on December 12, 2022. Digitization of mine Historical mine workings in the Main Zone and Berggren Shaft were digitized into triangulated solids by georeferencing historical long sections against locations of mine shafts recorded in Nova Scotia government databases. Main Zone and Berggren Shaft workings are depicted below. Figure 1. Vertical long sectional view of digitized mine workings. West Gore Main Zone and Berggren shaft. Looking 021 degrees. Historical drilling information Since production ceased in 1917 six exploration drilling programs have taken place. Year Operator Drill holes 1958 Canadian Alumina Corp. 5 1964 Talisman Mines 6 1974 NS Dept. of Natural Resources 16 1985 Durham Resources 19 1987 Durham Resources 6 2013 Great Atlantic Resources 2 Drillhole collar information for the 1964 Talisman Holes was recovered without the logs and geochemical analyses. Additionally, drilling by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources was done for informational purposes and no geochemical samples were taken. Figure 2. Map of historical mining infrastructure and Diamond Drilling location at West Gore. Coloured Base map shows ownership distribution of mineral exploration licenses. Of the programs outlined above, the 1985 drilling by Durham resources was the most meaningful. That program of drilling saw the company achieve a number of significant results outlined below. The intervals reported are composite grades calculated from original Durham resources drill logs and analytical certificates as filed for assessment work with the Nova Scotia department of Energy and Mines in 1986 and 1987, reports “ar_me_1986_012” and “ar_me_1987-050”. Reported significant composites are defined as those meeting 0.1% Sb over a minimum drilled length of one metre with no more than 3 metres of consecutive material below 0.1% Sb.
