Vancouver, BC (FSCwire) – Aztec Minerals Corp. (“Aztec”) (AZT: TSX-V) announces that the Phase 1 drilling program is now underway on the Cervantes gold-copper porphyry property in Sonora State, Mexico. The “Informe Preventivo” drilling permit was granted by SEMARNAT, and Aztec has obtained surface access to build roads and pads on the California and Jasper targets on the Property.

The Phase 1 drill program will consist of diamond core drilling of 14 to 17 holes totalling approximately 3,000 metres.  The objectives of the drill program are as follows:

  • Drill-test the gold oxide cap on the California zone where 50m x 50m spaced soil sampling identified a 600m wide by 900m long gold anomaly, over which prior soil samples averaged 0.44 grams per tonne (“gpt”) 1. Gold-copper mineralization in the California zone is hosted primarily within quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusive and intrusive breccias. Core test holes will be drilled to approximately 150m based on new and enhanced geological, geochemical, structural, and geophysical data.
  • Drill-test the gold-copper oxide mineralization on the Jasper target, where Aztec recently identified 92.4m of 0.62 gpt gold and 0.52% copper in trenching, as more fully described in Aztec’s news release dated October 3, 2017.
  • Drill one hole to approximately 500m depth to test one of the geophysical chargeability/resistivity anomalies identified by the induced polarization survey conducted by Aztec last year for gold-copper sulfide mineralization.

“We are excited to initiate the Phase 1 drill program now that the rain season has passed and climate conditions are good for drilling. We have well defined drill targets at the California and Jasper porphyry oxide gold-copper targets due to the trench sampling, soil sampling, and detailed vein mapping we have completed to date” said Joey Wilkins, President and CEO.

VVC Exploration Corp (TSXV:VVC) is a resource company currently working to bring its flagship Samalayuca copper property in Chihuahua, Mexico to production. The NI 43-101 for the property was completed by Dr. Michel Boliy in 2013 represents an Inferred Mineral resource of 4.1 million tons of copper ore grading 0.47% copper and 5.8 g/t silver. This resource estimate was based on fresh rock samples from existing pits and from core drilling done by Phelps Dodge on the property and covers less than 10% of the mineralized zone.

The Samalayuca copper project, is a 4,055-acre property situated in the northern part of Mexico’s Chihuahua state and 60 kilometers southwest of El Paso, Texas. A producing property up to its closure in 1970, the project is copper-bearing, sits in a region nearly devoid of vegetation and VVC is now looking to bring it back up to production as soon as 2018. The project is also supported by infrastructure including an access road, an available mining workforce.

TORONTO, Oct. 12, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Discovery Metals Corp. (TSX-V:DSV) (“Discovery Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has been granted drill permits for five of its projects from Mexican regulator SEMARNAT (Mexico’s Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources).

The Company has option agreements on seven projects (including the five for which permits have just been granted), all located in northern Coahuila State within an historic high-grade and past producing silver-zinc-lead belt. All projects display alteration and mineralization styles suggestive of carbonate-replacement style mineralization, and include numerous historical artisanal workings.  The projects have not been explored with modern methods and all are virtually undrilled. The newly granted permits cover the La Kika, Renata, Santa Rosa, La Minerva, and Jemi-Rare projects.

Discovery Metals President and CEO, Taj Singh commented: “This is a significant step for us. Our company came into existence in August, so we are very pleased to have received these permits in such a short time. Our newly-formed team has been working diligently to develop a detailed exploration plan and has prioritized a number of high-impact targets. We expect to be drilling on at least one project before the end of the year.”

Azure Minerals Limited (ASX: AZS) (“Azure” or “the Company”) is pleased to report that
preparations for its first drilling program on the Oposura zinc-lead-silver project are complete and drilling will commence as soon as the Company has received the requisite permits, expected in early to mid-October.
The proposed drilling plan comprises about 100 diamond core holes for approximately 5,000 metres. At least two, and possibly three, drill rigs will be mobilised to site in order to complete the program as quickly as possible. The Company plans to use this drilling data, plus historical information, to undertake a maiden mineral resource estimate in the first quarter of 2018.
Drilling by previous explorers of 85 surface holes tested the mineralised zone over an area of approximately 1,400m (east-west) x 400m (north-south) (see Figure 1). Early drilling by Azure will twin some of these historical holes to assess whether they can be used in defining the deposit and estimating the mineral resource.
