[{"type":"text","content":"New Destiny Mining Drilling Holes 10 and 11 at the Jim Kelly Gold Zone - Treasure Mountain Silver Project, Hope BCVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 25, 2024) - New Destiny Mining Corp. (TSXV: NED), (the \"Company\" or \"NED\") provides a further update on its 2024 exploration program at the Treasure Mountain project, near Princeton, BC.Figure 1. Plan view (looking down) of drill holes TMN24-08 to 11, at the Jim Kelly area. The red dashed line is the interpreted extension of Jim Kelly mineralized zone.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/5001/224497_705f463a940dc85a_001full.jpgDrilling has been completed for this season at the Jim Kelly gold zone (see map above). Holes TMN24-10 and TMN24-11 aimed to test the Jim Kelly mineralized zone along strike and down dip, closer to the known shallow dipping mineralized zone exposed in a historic mine adit. TMN24-10 was drilled towards the southeast and TMN24-11 was drilled towards the south-southeast. Hole TMN24-10 intersected an interval of brecciated rock with carbonate alteration, silicification and disseminated pyrite from 78.7 to 80.4 meters depth (see top photo below), this intercept is an extension of the Jim Kelly mineralized zone along strike 35 meters from the intersect in TMN24-08. Hole TMN24-11 did not intersect the projected Jim Kelly mineralized zone but intersected a chlorite altered gabbro with vuggy gray silica alteration, disseminated fine grained pyrite and hematite on fractures from 135.9 to 136.4 m depth (see bottom photo below). This zone is interpreted as a deeper parallel mineralized zone that can be correlated with similar intersects on holes TMN24-08, TMN24-09, and TMN24-10 (see map above). The drilling results, along with prospecting work done along the Jim Kelly Creek, indicate potential for multiple veins and mineralized zones in this Jim Kelly gold area.Core samples are now being prepared to be submitted to the lab for assaying. Further exploration trenching and drilling will be permitted in this and other areas of the property for future exploration campaigns.Figure 2.
