The mineralized areas measure 800 x\n \n 400m\n \n , 500 x\n \n 300m\n \n and a third zone with a\n \n 250m\n \n strike length. Mineralization is open in a number of directions on each target. This new area sits just several hundred metres to the northwest of the K9 target and west of the K8 target.\n \n \n Mineralization in the new K10 target is characterized as mainly copper indications and showings throughout each of the three mineralized zones. Chalcopyrite is the main copper mineral with lesser amounts of native copper. The mineralized zones are characterized by a central core containing chalcopyrite and pyrite with a pyrite halo on the periphery. Samples for which assays has been received to date show values from anomalous up to 1289 ppm Cu. The Company has also completed several reconnaissance soil lines through the target area with laboratory results pending.\n \n \n The K10 target area has only been partially covered with previously completed magnetic surveys. The Company is preparing to extend coverage over K10 with additional magnetic and gravity surveys. With the new discovery at K10 the Company now has nine targets throughout the Cross Hills Project with targets ranging from drill ready to newly discovered. A map showing the K10 target can be found at\n \n https://www.zontemetals.com/projects/cross-hills-copper-property\n \n \n \n \n Terry Christopher\n \n , President and CEO states \"The K10 mineral system i...
