Zephyr Minerals Ltd. to Commence Airborne Geophysical Survey

28.06.2019  |  CNW
HALIFAX, June 28, 2019 - Zephyr Minerals Ltd. ("Zephyr" or the "Company") (TSXV: ZFR) (OTC: ZPHYF) is pleased to announce it has executed a service agreement with Balch Exploration Consulting Inc. for an airborne magnetic and electromagnetic geophysical survey over the Dawson-Green Mountain property in Colorado, USA. The Dawson-Green Mountain property encompasses a large mineralized system which trends east-west and is over 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) long. The geophysical survey will be flown on north-south lines spaced at 100 meters (328 feet).

Geological data suggests that the genesis of the silver-lead-zinc mineralization at Dawson-Green Mountain is similar to the Broken Hill-type ("BHT") Silver-Lead-Zinc deposits. BHT deposits are typically very magnetic while the surrounding rocks usually have a low magnetic susceptibility. This magnetic contrast makes a magnetic survey a very effective method for exploration of this deposit type. The Cannington, Australia BHT discovery in 1990 was made by drilling a magnetic anomaly. This discovery totaling 45 million tonnes of high grade silver, lead, and zinc mineralization is worth approximately $25 billion in today's dollars.

Shallow drill holes (<100 meters), from 1979 and 1981 in the central region at Dawson-Green Mountain contain high grade zinc mineralization that is very magnetic (See news release April 15, 2019). The hanging wall and footwall rocks to the mineralized zone are characterized by low magnetic signatures providing excellent magnetic contrast with the target mineralization. The objective of the airborne survey is to search for structurally thickened zones at depth of the near surface high grade mineralization. The airborne geophysical survey is expected to commence mid-July with preliminary results available by late August.

Loren Komperdo, President & CEO stated, "Given the many striking BHT characteristics of the central region of the Dawson-Green Mountain property, positive results from this survey, i.e. a large magnetic anomaly, could be a major development for Zephyr. To the best of my knowledge, this is one of only two BHT exploration targets in North America. A discovery like Cannington, would be monetarily equivalent to discovering a 19 million oz. gold deposit."

Zephyr has granted 600,000 stock options to directors and officers of the Company. The stock options are exercisable at a price of $0.31 per share for a term of five years expiring June 26, 2024. The options are granted in accordance with the Company's stock option plan and as set forth by TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") policy and are subject to the approval of the TSX-V.
