OK2 Minerals Completes RC Drilling at Pyramid; Diamond Drills to Be Mobilized Shortly to Test Deeper Porphyry Targets

The RC drilling program was successful in testing IP geophysical anomalies and surface geochemical anomalies. The depth limits of the RC drill rig (200m) meant that the deeper geophysical targets could not be tested and deeper testing of the geologic model based on surface and downhole geochemistry, remains a priority.

Based on results from this program, diamond core hole locations have been finalized and contractor Omineca Drilling will be mobilized to the site shortly to begin a diamond core program to test these deeper targets.

Mike Devji, CEO states: “We are pleased with these results, as they demonstrate a large area of encouraging mineralization. We will follow up by diamond drill testing of all three zones, and are particularly excited to test the Central and West Zones with deeper diamond drill holes as our exploration efforts to-date clearly show that there is excellent potential for a deeper copper-gold porphyry system. The size of this project makes drill targeting an involved process, and we continue to be impressed with our early-stage exploration results.”

West Zone: PY-17-08 was drilled to intersect anomalous copper and gold surface rock and soil geochemistry as well as targeting an area of moderate chargeability between two chargeability high’s. This hole encountered 6.62m of 0.25 g/t Au. PY-17-09 was drilled into a 500m wide shallow chargeability high in the western portion of the West Zone. It returned encouraging copper mineralization with 21.32m of 0.09% Cu from 67.06m including 9.14m of 0.13% Cu. Chip logging determined the presence of strong QSP (Quartz-Sericite-Pyrite) alteration within the drill hole.

Central Zone: Drill holes PY-17-01 through PY-17-03 were drilled into the Central Zone to investigate an area mostly covered in overburden, with anomalous copper-in-soil geochemistry and coincident near-surface to deep chargeability highs. This drilling confirmed the presence of a new porphyry copper mineralized body with intense QSP alteration in PY-17-03 grading into propylitic alteration (Epidote-Chlorite-Carbonate-Pyrite) in PY-17-01 and PY-17-02, all noted in thin section. Drill hole PY-17-03 returned low grade intercepts but did show anomalous copper throughout most of the drill hole with up to 0.06% Cu from 152.4 to 153.92m. The drill hole was completed to a depth of 164.59m with both copper and sulfur increasing with depth. The Company is encouraged by these results as they confirm that the Central Zone represents a new porphyry system that will be tested at depth with diamond drilling.

East Zone: Two RC holes were drilled to cross cut surface rock sampling up to 11.6 g/t Au. Drill holes PY-17-04 and PY-17-05 both encountered Argillic (Clay-Pyrite) alteration as well as QSP alteration. The results are summarized below in Table 1. This drilling confirms the presence of wide spread gold ± copper mineralization. The most significant intercept were 28.95m of 0.28 g/t Au in hole PY-17-04, which included 4.57m of 1.43 g/t Au and 91.44m of 0.12 g/t Au which included 4.57m of 0.94 g/t from shallow depths in PY-17-05. This zone remains a target for future diamond drilling.

Zone 37: Two drill holes; PY-17-10 and PY-17-11 in this prospective zone did not return any significant intercepts with gold mineralization.
