Blackthorn Resources Limited has received copper (Cu) assay results from drill hole S36-024.
Drill hole S36-024 was the second hole completed as part of the Phase 5 drilling campaign which is testing 16 targets from the Mumbwa Project in Zambia.
A series of targets have been planned over the existing Kitumba inferred mineral resource area to drill ‘infill’ and ‘step-out’ holes to further define the geological model for mineral resource estimation. The Phase 5 program is planning to drill test 16 targets for approximately 8,900m of core.
Since August 2011 the Phase 5 drilling program has completed two holes (S36-023 and S36-024), and another three holes are currently progressing.
