BIG RED MINING CORP. Big Red Mining Inc. announced the completion of a 1,900 m drill program comprising 9 holes on its Optioned Dobie Lake Copper Property in Ontario, Canada. The drilling program tested two of the known areas of potential copper mineralization on the Dobie Lake Copper Property the Canamiska Zone and the newly discovered Alpha Vein of the No. 2 Zone.
The Canamiska Zone drilling comprised 5 holes and focused on the area where previous drilling has intersected copper values. Four holes were also completed to test part of the Alpha Vein in the No. 2 Zone.
Core logging has been completed and assays are awaited. The visual presence of copper mineralization comprising chalcopyrite and/or chalcocite has been reported in 4 of the 5 holes at Canamiska and two of the holes on the ALPHA Vein. The mineralization encountered consisted dominantly of stringers, pods and disseminations of chalcopyrite, however, a zone of massive chalcocite was encountered in Drill hole DL21-01.
The zone is deeply weathered and appeared to represent a shear zone with bands of massive chalcocite.
