Rumble Resources Ltd: Higher Grade Zn-Pb in Drilling confirms Discoveries
04.05.2020 | ABN Newswire
Perth, Australia - Rumble Resources Ltd. (ASX:RTR) (FRA:20Z) is pleased to announce the results and latest interpretation from confirmation RC drilling on the Magazine and Chinook Prospects within the Earaheedy Project.Higher-grade Zn-Pb with Ag up to 200m in width further highlights the potential for multiple large-scale (large tonnage) flat lying sulphide deposits that would be amenable to open cut mining.
Earaheedy Zn-Pb-Ag Project, Wiluna, Western Australia
RC drilling has confirmed continuity of width and higher-grade Zn-Pb with Ag at the Chinook and Magazine prospects. The prospects are two shallow, flat lying, large-scale unconformity related sandstone hosted Zn-Pb-Ag discoveries made by Rumble in January 20201.
Magazine Zn-Pb-Ag Prospect
- Higher grade flat lying (up to 12.65% Zn + Pb) has been confirmed with:
o 12m @ 4.48% Zn + Pb, 2.91 g/t Ag from 88m (EHRC034)
including 4m @ 7.36% Zn + Pb, 4.43 g/t Ag from 88m
- The new intersection confirms nearby historic Zn-Pb:
o 7m @ 4.85% Zn + Pb from 103m (TRC47)
including 2m @ 11.0% Zn + Pb from 103m
Chinook Zn-Pb-Ag Prospect
- Strong continuity of flat lying Zn-Pb confirmed with:
o *12m @ 3.39% Zn + Pb, 4 g/t Ag from 84m (EHRC022)
including 4m @ 5.44% Zn + Pb, 6.5 g/t Ag from 85m
o Mineralisation lies within a broad zone of:
- *18m @ 2.44% Zn + Pb from 83m
EHRC022 lies 200m northeast of discovery hole EHRC019 (completed by Rumble Jan 2020) which returned:
o *11m @ 4.13% Zn + Pb, 12.78 g/t Ag from 61m (EHRC019)
Including 5m @ 4.7% Zn + Pb from 65m
o Mineralisation (EHRC019) lies within a very wide zone of
- *41m @ 1.41% Zn + Pb from 37m
Important: *indicates true width of mineralisation
Large Scale Zn-Pb-Ag Deposit Potential
- At Chinook, higher-grade Zn-Pb confirmed over 200m horizontal width and up to 12m vertical true thickness (within 41m Zn-Pb broad zone)
- Magazine and Chinook are 10.5km apart with the Zn-Pb-Ag mineralisation completely open
- The Project covers over 40km of sandstone unconformity prospective strike - remains untested and completely open
- Higher-grade Zn-Pb identified in sandstone channel and facies zones which are conducive to developing higher-grade Zn-Pb mineralisation - New Target Zones
- All these points combined highlights the potential for multiple large tonnage, flat lying, shallow deposits and supports the exploration target1
Next Stage
- Complete step out RC drilling at Chinook to test strike potential
- Complete RC drill section at Magazine and step out to test strike potentia
