Vendetta Mining Announces Maiden Assay Results from the 2014 Zone 5 Drilling Program at the Pegmont Lead-Zinc Project

10.02.2015  |  The Newswire

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / February 10, 2015 - Vendetta Mining Corp. (VTT-TSX:V) (the "Company") is pleased to announce maiden results from the Zone 5 drilling program completed between October-December 2014 at the Pegmont Lead-Zinc Project in Queensland, Australia.

Highlights include:

PVRD017: 4.0 metres of 5.83% Pb, 11.34% Zn

PVRD013: 8.8 metres of 8.73% Pb, 3.99% Zn

PVRD010: 4.2 metres of 6.29% Pb, 5.64% Zn

The Company completed 12 drill holes for a total of 2995.8 m in Zone 5, the down dip projection of the current 43-101 resource at Pegmont which does not form a part of the current NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate, see Table 3 below.

The objective of the Company's first Zone 5 drilling program was to define the frame work for Zone 5, to identify controls on higher grade mineralization and to take the first step towards upgrading Zone 5 to an Inferred Resource. Assay results are summarized in Table 1 below and are compiled with the entire Zone 5 intersections, by drill section, line in Table 2.

* True width is estimated at 90 to 100% of the down hole intersection length in Table 1 and 2.

The drilling was conducted using reverse circulation ("RC") pre-collars and HQ diamond core tails, as this is a cost effective combination of drilling methods. All HQ core was orientated enabling structural measurements to be recorded, resulting in data that is used to validate cross section interpretations.

The location of the drilling and geometry of the mineralization is shown in Figure 1 and in four cross sections in Figure 2.

Notes on Diamond Core Drilling and Assay QA/QC

All sampling was conducted using HQ size core; 52 mm in diameter. The core was half cut using a diamond saw and sampled on 1 m intervals and the sample length was varied to honor the visual grade and geology boundaries on the footwall.

Field duplicate samples were taken as quarter core of the remaining half core samples. Blanks and commercially prepared certified reference materials (standards) were added into the sample sequence for every hole submitted. No issues were noted with analytical accuracy or precision.

Specific gravity measurements were taken on representative pieces of core for each sample visually recognized as being mineralized.

Samples used for the results described herein were prepared and analyzed at ALS Laboratory Group in Townsville, Queensland. Analysis was undertaken using a four acid digest and 32 elements ICP with over limit, high grade samples being read with an atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS).

Drill hole collars were located using GPS and down hole surveys were undertaken using true north seeking gyroscope with stations every 5 m.

About The Pegmont Lead Zinc Project

The Pegmont lead-zinc-silver deposit is located in North West Queensland Mineral Province, 175 km south-east of Mount Isa, 25 km east of BHP Billiton's world class Cannington silver-lead-zinc operation and 28 km north of Chinova Resources' Osborne and Kulthor copper-gold operations. It is proximate to infrastructure including roads, rail, and natural gas for power generation.

Pegmont is a stratiform deposit that outcrops with an overall shallow dip to the south east and is hosted in a magnetite rich banded iron formation within high grade metamorphic rocks. The project consists of three granted mining leases and two exploration permits that cover an area of approximately 3,468 ha. Discovered in 1971, a total of 408 bore holes for 44,746 m have been completed on the project prior to 2014. The current NI 43-101 Pegmont Mineral Resource Estimate for Zones 1 to 4 is presented below in Table 3.
