[{"type":"text","content":"ZincX Resources Drills 10.25% Zn+Pb and 15.4 g/t Ag over 11.97 metres at the Cardiac Creek DepositVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 24, 2019 / ZincX Resources Corp. (\"ZincX Resources\" or \"the Company\", TSX Venture Exchange: ZNX) is pleased to announce the final set of assay results from the 2019 diamond drilling program on the Akie Project.The Company recently completed a 2,347 metre, 4-hole large-diameter HQ diamond drill program that focused on the Cardiac Creek deposit. All four holes successfully intersected thick intervals with excellent recoveries comprised of high-grade mineralisation from within the core of the Cardiac Creek deposit. Over 480 HQ drill core samples were submitted for analysis. Results from drill hole A-19-154 are presented below.2019 Akie Drill Result HighlightsDrill hole A-19-154 returned 8.30% Zn+Pb and 13.3 g/t Ag over a true width of 19.50 metres including 10.25% Zn+Pb and 15.4 g/t Ag over a true width of 11.97 metresDrill hole A-19-154 targeted the up-dip portion of the high-grade core in an open area central to the Cardiac Creek deposit, proximal to holes 39A, 50, 53, and 133. A pierce point was obtained up-dip from hole A-07-50 and along strike from holes A-07-53 and A-06-39A. The results from A-19-154 are very similar to the these surrounding high-grade holes. In contrast to the other holes from the 2019 program, hole A-19-154 was intentionally collared into the footwall rocks and drilled into the Cardiac Creek Zone from the footwall side of the deposit.A broad envelope of mineralisation was intersected from 349.03 to 425.67 metres representing a true width of 24.32 metres that returned 6.88% Zn+Pb and 11.3 g/t Ag. Within this envelope the Cardiac Creek Zone is present from 349.03 to 410.50 metres, grading 8.30% Zn+Pb and 13.3 g/t Ag over a true width of 19.50 metres. Inclusive higher-grade intervals include 10.25% Zn+Pb and 15.4 g/t Ag over a true width of 11.97 metres from 353.19 to 390.915 metres, and 12.61% Zn+Pb and 18.5 g/t Ag over a true width of 7.78 metres from 353.19 to 377.71.The character of the Cardiac Creek Zone intersected in A-19-154 is similar to the other holes from the 2019 drill program and is comprised of thickly bedded sulphides consisting of steel-grey sphalerite, and galena interbanded with lessor amounts of laminar pyrite. Higher grade mineralisation which exhibits ...
