Antimony Resources (CSE: ATMY) has reported assay results from four additional drill holes at its Bald Hill antimony deposit, extending a run of high grade hits across the property’s Main Zone.
Highlights from the results include:
- BH-26-20: 13.14% antimony over 2.45 metres from a depth of 91.5 metres
- BH-26-25: 16.65% antimony over 5.05 metres from a depth of 96.95 metres,
- Including 33.40% antimony over 1.1 metres from a depth of 98.4 metres
- BH-26-27: 0.36% antimony over 15.95 metres from a depth of 136.85 metres
- BH-26-17: 0.67% antimony over 3.25 metres from a depth of 260.6 metres
All four holes intersected antimony-bearing stibnite, with most mineralization sitting roughly 100 to 150 metres below surface and one zone reaching a depth of 260 metres. Several holes cut more than one mineralized interval, and BH-26-25 alone returned three separate zones across more than 44 metres of core.
The holes form part of a 18,000 metre program designed to expand the Main Zone and test newly identified targets elsewhere on the property. This batch was drilled into the southern end of the Main Zone to infill gaps where earlier data was thin.
Chief Executive Officer Jim Atkinson said the four holes “successfully intersected antimony mineralization” and helped detail the southern part of the zone. He added that the program will keep pushing the known mineralization to the north, south and at depth.
The company describes Bald Hill as the highest-grade antimony deposit in North America, with mineralized widths averaging four to five metres and grades of 3% to 4% antimony. The Main Zone has been traced over 600 metres in length and to at least 350 metres depth, and remains open in all directions. Work on the New Zones is advancing in parallel, with more than 2,000 metres drilled at the Central Zone. Those samples are at the laboratory, and results are expected in roughly two weeks.
