[{"type":"text","content":"ZincX Resources Drills 19.59% Zn+Pb and 27.0 g/t Ag over 14.65 Metres at the Cardiac Creek DepositVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 10, 2019 / ZincX Resources Corp. (TSXV:ZNX) (\"ZincX Resources\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to announce the third 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 have been submitted for analysis. Results from drill hole A-19-153 are presented below.2019 Akie Drill Result HighlightsDrill hole A-19-153 returned 13.78% Zn+Pb and 19.7 g/t Ag over a true width of 30.14 metres including 19.59% Zn+Pb and 27.0 g/t Ag over a true width of 14.65 metresDrill hole A-19-153 targeted the central area of the high-grade core in proximity to the spectacular hole A-17-137. A pierce point was obtained up-dip from hole A-17-137 and along strike from similar high-grade holes A-15-121 and A-07-50. A broad envelope of mineralisation was intersected from 443.00 metres to 532.50 metres representing a true width of 50.71 metres that returned 9.37% Zn+Pb and 14.2 g/t Ag. Within this envelope the Cardiac Creek Zone is present from 454.00 to 507.25 metres, grading 13.78% Zn+Pb and 19.7 g/t Ag over a true width of 30.14 metres. Inclusive higher-grade intervals include 17.24% Zn+Pb and 24.1 g/t Ag over a true width of 22.93 metres from 466.78 to 507.25 metres, and 19.59% Zn+Pb and 27.0 g/t Ag over a true width of 14.65 metres. The Footwall Zone was intersected below the Cardiac Creek Zone from 518.82 to 532.50 metres that returned 6.81% Zn+Pb and 11.8 g/t Ag over a true width of 7.81 metres.The Cardiac Creek Zone is comprised of thickly bedded sulphides consisting of lessor amounts of laminar pyrite interbanded with steel-grey sphalerite and galena. Higher grade mineralisation exhibiting strongly developed \"mottled\" textures within sphalerite and galena-rich sulphide bands are present throughout the interval. The sulphides are interbedded with the black siliceous shales of the Gunsteel Formation.The Footwall Zone was intersected from 518.82 to 532.50 metres...
