Listed metal explorer, Castillo Copper (ASX:CCZ) announced the intersection of high-grade polymetallic mineralisation at Cangai Copper Mine, located near Grafton in northeast NSW.

At the completion of down-hole electromagnetic surveys at Volkhardts lode, the company discovered high-grade shallow massive Sulphide comprising of 10.25% Copper, 6.04% Zinc, 32.5 g/t silver and 1.37 g/t gold. These results pertain to the assays completion for the first five drill-holes at Cangai along the line of lode.

It was informed that Down-hole electromagnetic (DHEM) surveys have been underway to identify the potential conductors to further enhance the understanding of underlying orebody at Cangai. The next move involves DHEM survey team undertaking further work along the line of lode tracking the RC drilling crew at Volkhardts lode. This is said to demonstrate the scalability of the project, wherein the technology will identify the accumulations of massive sulphides at depth and ultimately the primary source. Thereafter, the finishing at McDonoughs lode will be covered.

The company confirmed that further work at Canberra anomaly has been finished and the geology team has dispatched the samples to the laboratory for analysis. The work involves the potential extension of high-grade mineralization to eastwards as Canberra anomaly is located at the east end of the line of lode with a surface reading of 1,660ppm Copper.

Castillo Copper is preparing for completion of a Phase 2 of drilling with 39 drill holes submitted for regulatory approval by the NSW Dept Mines. The target locations include Smelter Creek Copper Smelter Dumps, along strike and under the McDonoughs workings, proximal to Marks’ workings, underneath Volkhardts’ workings, and DHEM anomaly located along strike from CRC005. [optin-monster-shortcode id="wxhmli4jjedneglg1trq"]
