[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 28, 2023 /CNW/ - Prospect Ridge Resources Corp. (the \"Company\" or \"Prospect Ridge\") (CSE: PRR) (OTC: PRRSF) (FRA: OED) is pleased to announce new results of outcrop samples taken on the Copper Ridge mineralized zone which returned high-grade values in gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc, located at the Company's fully owned flagship Knauss Creek property, about 35 km northeast of Terrace, British Columbia. Following up on high-grade results previously reported on the Copper Ridge showing (see news releases dated January 26th, 2023, and November 8th, 2023), additional sampling continues to return high-grade values of gold, silver copper lead and zinc from the Copper Ridge mineralized zone. The recent results continue to extend the area of mineralization and now stretches over an east-west length of 1,250 metres and a north-south length of 500 metres. The elevation differentiation is approximately 250 metres. In plan view, the zone is over twice as large as previously announced. Further work will be completed to better define the metal zonation across this high-grade mineralized zone. Key Highlights from rock outcrop sampling: 15.90 g/t Au, 987 g/t Ag, 0.29 % Cu, 17.55 % Pb and 6.99 % Zn (W489424), 0.55 g/t Au, 2900 g/t Ag, 2.24 % Cu, 4.24 % Pb and 0.24 % Zn (W500261), 1.95 g/t Au, 1870g/t Ag and 5.93 % Cu (W489429), 1.97 g/t Au, 1775 g/t Ag and 3.20 % Cu (W500259), 1.67 g/t Au, 201 g/t Ag and 9.71 % Cu (W500257), and 0.73 g/t Au, 1105 g/t Ag, 1.67 % Cu, 0.65 % Pb and 0.28 % Zn (D791529).

Prospect Ridge CEO Michael Iverson commented, \"The new results indicate a significant expansion of the mineralized zone towards the south-east, while also unveiling a promising new trend towards the west. Almost all samples are from outcrops extruding between block fields and ridge crests, which are predominantly gold, silver, and copper-bearing. Copper Ridge is shaping up to be a potentially substantial polymetallic system. The diversity in the elevation of these samples not only confirms the presence of these minerals at the surface but also suggests their extension at depth. These results provide a new dimension to our understanding, offering both surface and depth perspectives in our exploration efforts.\" Prospect Ridge President Yan Ducharme added, \"we are ...
