Zonte Metals Inc. announced the discovery of two gravity anomalies at the K9 target, on its Cross Hills Copper project in Newfoundland, each anomaly spatially coincident with a magnetic anomaly, and elevated copper in rocks and soils. The recently completed gravity survey identified two anomalies at the K9 target. Previous exploration over the target area by Zonte identified a magnetic anomaly coincident with significant alteration, sitting in a structural corridor with elevated copper in rocks and soil.

Throughout the Cross Hills Copper project the Company has completed over 1,000 MMI soil samples, with the K9 target having the majority of the values. The single higher copper-in-soil sample sits above one of the newly discovered gravity anomalies, making it a high priority target. The Company will complete a detailed infill and expanded soil sampling program to define the higher priority areas for initial drilling.

The two gravity anomalies discovered at the K9 target sit partially adjacent and overlapping the magnetic anomaly. The southeast gravity anomaly measures about 800 by 500m and open to the south. The northwest gravity anomaly is an elongated anomaly measures over 1000m along strike and up to 300m wide.

Each anomaly is coincident and spatially associated with elevated copper in rocks and soils; The Company has completed over 1000 MMI soil samples project wide with the K9 target containing the higher concentration of the elevated copper. Notably, the higher copper- in-soil value corresponds to the new southeast gravity anomaly. Previously, exploration over the K9 target identified bedrock mineralization returning up to 1.76% copper.

Mineralization through the target area is characterized by bornite, chalcopyrite and chalcocite associated with hematite and magnetite. Pyrite is commonly associated with the copper mineralization and hallos the target area.
