[{"type":"text","content":"Tombill Mines Confirms Extension of the F-Zone onto Its Flagship Property: Intersects 6.23 gpt Gold over 13.3mVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 17, 2021) - Tombill Mines Limited (TSXV: TBLL) (the \"Company\" or \"Tombill\"), is pleased to provide an exploration update at its 100% controlled, royalty-free flagship and patented Tombill Main Group property within the Geraldton Gold Camp.Highlights to Date of Phase One Program Hole TB21-005A, a wedge hole drilled from mother hole TB21-005, returned 6.23 grams per tonne (gpt) gold over 13.3 metres (m) confirming Hardrock's robust F-Zone extends onto its flagship property. This intercept is situated approximately 250m west of the eastern property boundary with the neighbouring Hardrock mine. Tombill believes this intercept cuts the lower third of the 150m tall F-Zone target, and is therefore commencing a wedge hole, TB21-005B, that will better test the full breadth and height of this mineralized zone.F-Zone remains wide open down-plunge to the west and will soon be tested by hole TB21-006, a 150m step-out to the west of TB21-005.Recent drilling has indicated an area of structural complexity exists between hole TB21-005 and the eastern property boundary where Tombill has determined a series of N-S trending faults and at least one post mineral dyke have shifted the F-Zone from its projected position.The F-Zone intercept encountered in hole TB21-005A indicates this body of mineralization is back in its original trajectory and should remain so further to the west.Due to structural complexities discussed above, holes TB21-001, TB21-002, TB21-003, and their respective wedge holes encountered short intercepts of F-Zone material as well as other zones of mineralization (see table below). Hole TB21-003 failed to reach target. Tim Twomey, Senior Geological Advisor to Tombill, commented; \"The F-Zone intercept encountered in hole TB21-005A is robust and geologically similar to those I found within the Hardrock project when I was leading the team that delineated the F-Zone for Premier Gold Mines between 2008 to 2012. The area of structural complexity we encountered in our first drill holes required some careful interpretation, but now that we have solved this complex geological puzzle, I am confident the F-Zone will continue westward where it remains open down-plunge. We look fo...
