High-Grade Copper Surface Samples at the Cue Copper Project
Perth, July 8, 2020 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Cyprium Metals Limited (
ASX:CYM) pleased to announce the results from a regional field mapping and surface sampling campaign at the Cue Copper Project's Rapier West and Mt Eelya prospects, to the north-west of the Hollandaire deposits as illustrated in Figure 1*.
A review and field inspection was conducted on the regional prospects to prioritise targets for the next phases of drilling as part of the Company's strategy to increase its copper resource base at the Cue Copper Project.
Samples were taken of mineralised quartz/iron gossans at the Rapier West locations in Figure 2* and in Images 1 and 2*, which returned the assay results as outlined in Table 1. These sample locations had been identified in late 2019 and drilling is planned during the second half of 2020, as detailed in Table 2*, to test the structure which is dipping 75deg to the south west.
Samples were also taken of mineralised and un-mineralised quartz/iron gossans at Mt Eelya as illustrated in Figures 3 and 4*, and in Images 3 to 6*, which returned the assay results as outlined in Table 3. Eight gossan outcrops were mapped at Mt Eelya and four were noted to contain significant mineralisation. It is planned to drill test for extensions of these structures that dip steeply to the south west during the second half of 2020 as detailed in Table 4* and Figure 4*.
Executive Director Barry Cahill commented "We are pleased to report these high-grade copper samples as part of our regional review programmes to increase the copper resource base at the Cue Copper Project.
We look forward to updating the market with assay results as they become available as we continue to progress the Cue Copper Project."
