VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 15, 2024 / CMC Metals Ltd. (TSX-V:CMB) (Frankfurt:ZM5P) (OTCQB:CMCXF) ("CMC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has prepared a new conceptual mineralization model (see Figure 1) for its Silverknife Property. The model is based on an interpretation of recent and historical exploration data and publicly available regional data. The model will serve as a guideline to future exploration efforts on the property and conceptually depicts the potential of the four zones on the property previously announced on March 20, 2024.
In addition, selected results from the 2023 drilling at the Silverknife Prospect Area not previously announced, were as follows:
Fugitive calcite veining was noted in Holes SKP 23-04, SKP 23-05,SKP 23-06, SKP 23-07, SKP 23-08 and SKP 23-09. This is significant as fugitive calcite with cross-cutting "epithermal textures" suggest the presence of a large, longer life mineralizing system which is a critical factor in the formation of carbonate replacement deposits.
Mr. Kevin Brewer, P.Geo. and President and CEO of the Company noted that "We initially did not understand the significance of this data. We hit mineralization in seven of the nine holes we drilled in this area. Furthermore, the alteration associated with the mineralization, suggests we are proximal to a large system. We encountered faulting in the drilling program that forced us to abandon two of the holes, and faulting is evidence that the plumbing system exists in this area for fluid migration, and the heat source exists as we intercepted the Cassiar granodiorite at depth. This verifies to us the significant potential of the Silverknife Prospect Zone which is yet to be fully evaluated and also the immense potential of examining western extensions of this system in the South-Central Silverknife Zone where we have large conductivity anomalies associated with significant geochemical soil anomalies. The development of the conceptual mineralization model by our project geologist Cesar Symonds is also a great addition to our knowledge of the property."
