[{"type":"text","content":"TORONTO / Nov 09, 2022 / Business Wire / Trigon Metals Inc. (TSX-V: TM) (“Trigon” or the “Company”) announces results from the drilling of new mineralization targets at Kombat Mine in Namibia (the “Project”). These results are from the East 400 area, 150 metres east of the Kavango Pit, discussed in recent press releases (August 4, 2022 and September 15, 2022), extending the Kombat trend mineralization. Highlights of the Drill Results CenEast 00 (184.8 azimuth, -71.1 dip) - 19m at 1.18%, from 64-83m - 3m at 3.24% copper and 11.75 g/t silver, from 101-104m Hole V01 (172.7 azimuth, -58.8 dip) - 7m at 2.22% copper and 27.13 g/t silver, from 56-63m Hole V03 (183.5 azimuth, -53.3 dip) - 47m at 1.20% copper and 5.35 g/t silver, from 28-75m The holes reported are from drilling testing gaps in the known mineralization previously thought to be barren. CenEast 00, V01 and V03 are verification holes testing continuity between areas previously drilled. The results are some of the longest intercepts drilled from surface and are consistently sulfide mineralization. Jed Richardson, President and CEO, commented, “Drilling continues to intercept massive sulfide copper mineralization. Widths appear to be increasing and the continuity of the mineralization appears to be improving as we connect what were thought to be isolated zones. Wider continuous zones of mineralization are what is needed for lower costs and higher recoveries when open pit production is restarted. Higher grades, increased widths and a lack of oxidization show a marked improvement from the ore that was processed from the central pit earlier this year.” Figure 1: Map of the East 400 Program Area The CenEast hole is east of the majority of the drilling that has been reported from this program in the area of the Kavango pit, initially disclosed in the press release dated May 17, 2022. It lies between East 200 affectionately called the Fat Avocado and what was previously thought to be a separate body situated to the east. Figure 2: Cross Section E400 Hole CenEast 00 and CenEast 00a CenEast 00 hole intercepted a wide zone of mineralization filling in an area thought to be an unmineralized gap previously. Hole CenEast 00A has been drilled and assays are pending. This hole shows the mineralization may be more continuous than previously thought. Figure 3: Drillcore from CenEast 00 The co...
