High Grade Zinc Intercepts - Mount Garnet Deeps
Consolidated Tin Mines Ltd (ASX: CSD) is pleased to provide an update on the assay results from two diamond drill holes for the Mt Garnet Deeps project, where drilling is targeting high-grade zinc mineralisation below the Mount Garnet deposit.
HIGHLIGHTS
Extension drilling returns significant widths of high-grade zinc mineralisation
Hole GTD262 returning:
- 9.71m at 6.17 % Zn from 343.7m - 6.76m at 5.82 % Zn from 381.7m
Hole GTD263W returning:
- 2.7m at 8.07 % Zn from 314.1m
- 6.2m at 5.00 % Zn from 343.3m
- 13.4m at 5.72% Zn from 369m
These two holes are part of a larger five hole program (Figure 1) designed to follow up previously announced high grade intersections from the Jasmac mineralised zone, which currently spans a strike length of over 200m and to a depth of approximately 300m. The mineralisation has a moderate plunge to the north, similar to the original Mount Garnet deposit, and is open at depth.

A complete list of significant intercepts are included in Table 1 below, the zinc rich zone being delineated by the drilling program also contains copper, lead and silver credits.

Table 1: Detailed summary of significant intercepts for drill holes GTD262 and GTD263W.
Drilling of the remaining three holes resumed in January and results of this program will be reported in the coming weeks. It is anticipated that this program will provide sufficient information to undertake a maiden JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate for the Mt Garnet Deeps area.
The mineralisation being defined in the Mount Garnet drill program has the potential to add significant stability to the Mt Garnet operations and provide a solid foundation for further growth and development of the Company's other projects.
