Miramont Resources (MONT-Cse) Begins Phase II Drilling at Cerro Hermoso
May 2nd 2019 - NR
Miramont Resources is pleased to announce the Phase II diamond drilling has commenced at its Cerro Hermoso gold-polymetallic project in southern Peru. Phase II is planned for nine diamond drill holes, each averaging approximately 400 m deep. The drill program is designed to follow up on mineralization encountered in the Central Breccia Zone, an outcropping target within the 1.4-km diameter diatreme complex.
Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Miramont's Executive Chairman said: "We are very happy to commence Phase II drilling on schedule. The Phase II drill holes are designed to more fully test the extent of gold-polymetallic mineralization within the pipe-like diatreme center, we are anxious to see if our new holes expand upon the already highly significant mineralization encountered by the Phase I drill holes."
In a news release dated April 12, 2019, Miramont announced final results from the nine-hole Phase I drill program conducted earlier this year. Hole CH-009, drilled in the north central part of the targeted diatreme complex, encountered several intervals of significant mineralization. This drill hole was highlighted by 249 m of 0.68 gpt Au equivalent, including a high grade sub-interval of 1.95 m of 28.7 gpt Au equivalent. Miramont believes this mineralization remains open to the southeast, east, northeast and at depth.
Miramont will provide regular updates on progress during the Phase II drill program.
