Millstream Mines Ltd.: Zone 220 Metres Wide To 710 Vertical Metre Depth : Intermittent Sulphide Mineralization : East Blue Sky Area; Potter Mine Property, Timmins : Matheson Area N. Ontario
TORONTO, ONTARIO--Millstream Mines Ltd. announces the exploration results of its initial deep drilling of the geophysical anomalous areas, located East of the mine shaft. These areas have similar geophysic signatures in which massive sulphide (copper-zinc-cobalt) mineralization has been drill confirmed in the past mine area. To date, the company, in the East target areas, has deepened one (1) drill hole S97-07 (ext), and drilled two (2) additional holes S99-06 and S99-07 in this exciting program.
Holes S99-07 and hole S97-07 extension X section
Hole S99-07 was drilled from the South. Hole S97-07 (ext.) was drilled from the North. Both holes were drilled on grid line 5+25W, and crossed each other at 430 vertical meters below surface. The weak sulphide (Po+Cpy+ZnS) disseminated and fracture style mineralization was intersected in each hole at various vertical depths establishing a continuous zone. This discovered zone containing remobilized sulphide mineralization averages 220 meters wide down to 710 vertical meters below surface and remains open at depth. Detailed logging of the drill core has been done with samples to be cut and sent for assay. Drilling of the next hole is ongoing.
Hole S99-06 (4+50W, 0+00S, Az 169, dip - 60) was targeted to test Quantec's geophysic Real Section I.P. strong anomalous zone centered on grid line 4+50W at a vertical depth of 700 to 900 meters below surface. The drill hole scheduled for 1100 meters drill length was stopped at 642.5 meters downhole due to overall deterioration of ground conditions with depth. The target is now planned to be tested from a south drill setup in the near future. The hole intersected the favourable volcanic stratigraphy with traces to weak disseminated sulphide and fracture style mineralization appearing between 529 to 534 meters downhole.
Hole S99-07 (5+25W, 9+10S, Az360, dip-60) was targeted to test Quantec's geophysic Real Section I.P. anomalous zone centered on grid line 5+25W at a vertical depth of 500 to 600 meters below surface, and underneath currently deepened drill hole S97-07 (PR November 10/99). The hole was drilled 1018.7 meters and intersected 677 meters of weak intermittent sulphide (Po + Cpy + ZnS) disseminated and fracture style mineralization from 240 meters to 917 meters downhole.
Ernest Harrison, President of Millstream, said, "the exploration results continue to be extremely encouraging. We do not in this area of our property have underground workings to assist us, thus it is necessary to build a data bank with drill holes. Confirmation of the favourable volcanic stratigraphy and the correct type of remobilized sulphide mineralization, similar to what is seen in the Potter Mine area, as stated by Consultant geologist, David Gamble "may represent structural remobilized leakage from a potential sulphide source at depth", in this area."
The principal objective of Millstream Mines Ltd. is to enhance and develop known mineral properties to production potential.

I was hoping for something a little more substantial! |
