Blaze Minerals Limited Announces the Commencement of Drilling At Its Earaheedy Basin Project in Late July
BERC8 returned pXRF readings of 9m @ 1.69% zinc,and 0.07% lead, within an overall intersection of 21m @ 0.68% zinc and 0.11% lead from 88109
metres. BERC6 returned pXRF readings of 21m @ 0.23% zinc,and 0.12% lead from 2748 metres. BERC6 returned pXRF readings of 21m @ 0.23% zinc,and 0.12% lead from 5868 metres. BERC7 returned pXRF readings of 10m @ 0.13% zinc,and 0.07% Lead from 5868 metres. BERC10A returned pXRF readings of 12m @ 0.07% zinc, and 0.19% lead from 88100 metres. BERC11 returned pXRF readings of 6m @ 1.27% zinc, and 0.18% lead, within an overall intersection of 22m @ 0.50% zinc and 0.10% lead from 113135 metres. The first five holes (BERC1 BERC5) were designed to test the potential of the Iroquois carbonate dolomite formation within Blaze Mineral tenement E69/3815 with the contact zone tested with no anomalous results returned. The drilling (BERC6 BERC11) then moved to the east to evaluate and test for the Frere/Yelma unconformity which was successfully intersected in all holes reaching target depth. A number of areas were covered by up to fifty metres of Tertiary clays and colluvium which masks large portions of potential mineralisation within the tenement. The mineralised zones were characterised by quartz veining, sulphide accumulations (pyrite, galena very fine grained sphalerite) in fresh rock and in the oxide zones, gossanous ferruginous rocks.
