This hole was drilled\n vertically from the same platform as the previously announced DDH-53\n (see press release February 23, 2012).\n\n\nMr Carter said: \"We are extremely pleased with these results as they\n continue to demonstrate the presence of strong zinc mineralization\n within the western part of the IP anomaly. Drilling is continuing to\n test these geophysical conductors\".\n\n\nSignificant mineralized intervals are shown below:\n\n\nHole #\n\n\nEasting(m)\n\n\nNorthing(m)\n\n\nElevation (m)\n\n\nAzimuth (deg)\n\n\nDip(deg)\n\n\nFrom (m)\n\n\nTo(m)\n\n\nInterval(m)\n\n\nAg (g/t)\n\n\nZn (%)\n\n\nA12-04A\n\n\n332,979\n\n\n8,846,188\n\n\n4263\n\n\nn.a.\n\n\n-90\n\n\n188\n\n\n200\n\n\n12\n\n\n \n\n\n3.3\n\n\nIncluding\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n190\n\n\n198\n\n\n8\n\n\n \n\n\n4.1\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n260\n\n\n280\n\n\n20\n\n\n9.0\n\n\n7.1\n\n\nIncluding\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n264\n\n\n278\n\n\n14\n\n\n11.9\n\n\n9.6\n\n\n\n\n\nHole A12-04A intercepted massive and semi-massive sulphides, consisting\n of pyrite, sphalerite and lesser galena, chalcopyrite and arsenopyrite\n hosted by sedimentary breccia, greywacke and siltstone that may belong\n to the Oyon formation which underlies the Gollyar sandstones, host of\n the silver mineralization at Zone 1. The mineralization is often\n accompanied by hematite, magnetite and chlorite alteration; the\n chlorite and magnetite increased with depth in this hole.\n\n\nAs yet, the geometry of the mineralization is not fully understood. The\n mineralization is believed to have been sourced from steeply dipping\n structures that underlie this sedimentary sequence, thus some of the\n mineralization may have a steep to near-vertical component; however,\n the irregular nature of some of it may suggest a replacement style\n which could trend in any direction and as such true width cannot be\n determined at this time.\n\n\nAll diamond drilling has been per...
