A number of bedrock and float samples over a\n \n 35m\n \n wide zone returned copper values between 0.18% and 0.89% Cu with trace silver. Mineralization in the new zone is characterized by chalcopyrite with pyrite and minor bornite\n \n . The extent of the copper zone is\n \n unknown as it strikes into vegetation covered areas.   The Company intends on completing an IP geophysical survey over the area to better define this target prior to drilling. A recently commissioned satellite imagery structural analysis of the Cross Hills property shows this new discovery sits along a fault structure. A map showing the K6 target with the newly discovered copper zone can be found at\n \n https://www.zontemetals.com/projects/cross-hills-copper-property\n \n \n \n The K6 target, located about 12km south of Dunns Mountain, was discovered in 2019 after completion of overlapping high-resolution ground magnetic and gravity surveys. 3D modelling of this data identified a large coincident anomaly that was drilled with two holes in 2019. The two drill holes tested the strongest portions of the near surface gravity and magnetic anomalies and returned anomalous copper values over narrow intervals (see\n \n March 3, 2020\n \n press release). The 2019 drill holes sit greater than\n \n 200m\n \n to the north of the new copper zone which is located on the southern periphery of the geophysical anomalies.\n \n \n At the Cross Hills property, the Company is continuing to follow up on soil anomalies at a number of areas to further define areas fo...
