150m Step-Out Confirms Expansion Potential: Drill hole 1274-25-373-W1 intersected approximately 27 m of mineralization, including a visually identified potential high-grade core of 7.3 m of strong copper-gold stringer-style mineralization. This intersection extends well beyond the current resource boundary at depth within the key western plunge target. Visual observations confirm the presence of copper stringers and [...]
Highlights: Improved Copper Grade Following Overlimit Assays: Final results from hole 1274-17-269W3 returned an updated intercept of 4.46% CuEq over 21.1 metres , within a broader interval of 1.8% CuEq over 69.0 metres , starting at a downhole depth of 932 metres. These enhanced grades further highlight the strength of the copper-gold mineralization at the B26 Deposit. Torque to Rising Gold and Silver Prices: The B26 [...]
Highlights: High Gold Credit & Increase in Block Model Grade: Hole 1274-17-269W3 - 3.65% CuEq over 21.1 metres within 1.55% CuEq over 69.0 metres beginning at 932 metres depth One of strongest results intercepted in the western plunge to date, supporting the high-grade growth potential with a strong gold credit. This hole tested a 200m-by-200m gap in the drill grid, located 80m down-dip from 1274-17-260 which intercepted [...]
Highlights: Hole 1274-17-269-W2b intersected 30 metres of strong VMS style mineralization 80 metres beyond current resource boundary between 1,140 and 1,170 meters along the hole. Visual observations confirm the presence of copper stringers and mineralization in key growth corridors; assays pending. Hole 1274-25-368 intersected two multi-metre zones of disseminated copper and copper-sphalerite mineralization, located [...]
Highlights: Hole 1274-17-269-W1b intersected 20 metres of strong VMS style mineralization 80 metres beyond current resource boundary. Visual observations confirm the presence of copper stringers and mineralization in key growth corridors; assays pending. A total of six holes completed, and 4,829 metres drilled to date in Phase 3, with two rigs active and 15,171 metres remaining. Abitibi Metals Corp. is pleased to report [...]
Highlights: Survey Completion and Data Validation: The VTEM™ survey has been successfully completed over the B26 Project, with all data processed and validated by Geotech Ltd. Conductive and Magnetic Signatures at B26: The copper stringer zone at B26 displays a well-defined conductive response, while the main zinc-rich ore body remains non-conductive. A potential 1.3 km western extension of the main deposit has been [...]
Highlights: Phase 3 Drilling update: Drilling has commenced with two drills, and the directional crew has arrived at the camp. This program is expansional focused, following up on high-grade intercepts on the boundary of the deposit which include: 1274-13-117: 2.92% CuEq over 68 metres 1274-17-260: 2.63% CuEq over 12 metres 1274-17-269: 2.99% CuEq over 10 metres Phase 3 Budget: The program is budgeted at an all-in cost of [...]
Highlights: Results from targeted drilling which expanded high-grade areas of the B26 Deposit: Hole 1274-25-363 - 1% CuEq over 63.2 metres beginning at 412.3 metres depth, including 4.8% CuEq over 4.1 metres beginning at 455.5 metres depth. Hole 1274-25-365 - 2.13% CuEq over 11 metres beginning at 507.2 metres depth. Hole 1274-25-366 - 1.84% CuEq over 29.6 metres beginning at 546 metres depth, including 3.38% CuEq over [...]
Highlights: Expansion Strategy: The B26 Deposit remains completely open for expansion. Large-scale target areas have been reviewed and prioritized based on their high-grade mineralization potential and proximity to zones with current development potential. This program represents the first large-scale expansional drilling initiative since the Company optioned the B26 Deposit. Exploration Targets: Drilling will target the [...]
Abitibi Metals Corp. is pleased to announce it has completed and confirmed in collaboration with its partner SOQUEM that all requirements to earn a 50% interest in the B26 Polymetallic deposit have been successfully fulfilled. This news follows the Company's recently announced mineral resource estimate1 of 11.3 million tonnes at 2.13% CuEq and 7.2 million tonnes at 2.21% CuEq . On November 16, 2023, the Company entered [...]
