(\"Rathdowney\" or the \"Company\") (TSX‐V: RTH) is pleased to provide an update on its 100%-owned Olza zinc-lead-silver project (\"Project Olza\") in Poland. The Company is actively engaged in a two-year plan to secure a Mining License for the project.   \nProject Description\nProject Olza is located in the Upper Silesian Mining District of southwestern Poland, a region of Mississippi Valley-type zinc-lead (\"MVT\") deposits that are world-class in terms of size, with a demonstrated history of long-life mines such as Pomorzany and Olkusz.  The Pomorzany zinc-lead mine, for example, has produced +90 Mt of zinc-lead ore over the past 40 years1.\nMineralization at Project Olza occurs along a corridor with a total strike length of approximately 10 km and width up to 1 km. Stratabound mineralized zones, averaging 3 m thick, are mainly hosted by a flat-lying dolomitic unit occurring 100 to 250 m below surface. Olza, like other MVT deposits are well-understood and boast simple metallurgy, and Rathdowney's engineering work confirms that conventional mining and mineral processing techniques can be applied.  Olza will be mined by standard room and pillar methods and processed using conventional crushing, grinding and flotation. The straight forward metallurgy will produce high-grade...
