Q PRECIOUS AND BATTERY METALS INTERSECTS VOLCANOGENIC MASSIVE SULPHIDES IN FIRST HOLE LA CORNE SOUTH PROJECT, VAL D'OR QUEBEC
Q Precious and Battery Metals Corp. has intersected disseminated, semi-massive and massive sulphide mineralization in the first drill hole completed on the La Corne South project located north of Val d'Or, Que. The drill hole was designed to test a coincident TDEM (time-domain electromagnetic) conductor and magnetic high discovered previously by Q Precious & Battery Metals geophysical surveys.
Q Precious & Battery Metals' drill hole 24LCS-01 was completed at a depth of 144 metres. Several significant mineralized bands were visible, each ranging from two metres to five metres width consisting mainly of pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite, interpreted as volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposition. The core is currently being logged and sampled at a facility in Val d'Or. Explo-Logik Inc. is managing the drill program. Q Precious & Battery Metals warns the reader that the information provided at this time in regard to drill hole 24LCS-01 is preliminary in nature and is based upon initial visual observations undertaken by a qualified professional at the site. Samples of the core will be analyzed to verify the metals contained within the sulphide mineralization (including possible copper/zinc/silver/gold).
The current drill program will continue to test TDEM conductors and magnetic anomalies along the strike of the host volcanic rocks. A corridor length of approximately two kilometres will be tested with seven to nine drill holes of 120 metres to 150 metres average depth. The drill hole planning will advance depending upon the geology observed in each drill hole. The Q Precious and Battery Metals geologic team is very pleased with the mineralization intercepted in hole 24LCS-01 as it supports the exploration model for VMS in the host volcanic rocks at La Corne South.
The geologic team, including qualified person and project manager Gilles Carrier of Explo-Logik, will continue to monitor the drilling and sample mineralized intercepts and continue interpretation for targeting of future drill holes. Drill core logging and sampling will take place at the Explo-Logik facility in Val d'Or.
