    White Cliff’s drilling has doubled the mineralised strike at Danvers copper mission in Canada.

    • White Cliff’s drilling spree doubles mineralised strike at Danvers copper mission to 830m
    • New beforehand untested construction discovered parallel and instantly adjoining to Danvers
    • A number of rigs working throughout property with diamond drilling at Hulk and Stark prospects

    Particular Report: Regional drilling at White Cliff Minerals’ Danvers copper mission in Nunavut, Canada, has prolonged recognized mineralisation and recognized additional sulphide mineralisation alongside strike.

    Drilling greater than doubled the strike of the primary Danvers lode to 830m with gap DAN25013, which is 150m southwest of DAN25007, intersecting 65m of copper sulphides from a down-hole depth of 48m.

    In the meantime, drill holes 14 and 15 returned large intersections with decrease concentrations of copper sulphides which are interpreted to be proximal to however not intersecting the primary lode.

    White Cliff Minerals (ASX:WCN) provides that holes 16 and 17 intersected a brand new, beforehand unknown, parallel construction, instantly adjoining to Danvers, after returning 8m and 17m of sulphide mineralisation respectively.

    What’s particularly fascinating is gap DAN25019m, which is about 4km from DAN25007, intersected 45m of copper sulphides from 12m.

    This intercept isn’t any fluke with gap DAN25018 that’s 400m to the southwest intersecting 14m of copper sulphides from floor.

    “Step out drilling alongside the Teshierpi Fault Zone has now confirmed steady copper and silver mineralization over a staggering 4km development,” managing director Troy Whittaker stated.

    “The mix of large intervals, high-grade visible sulphides and the extension of Danvers to now over 800m (nonetheless open in all instructions) may be very encouraging.

    “With a number of rigs testing prospects all through the licence areas, we’re assured that drilling will tie the Danvers system into constructions which signify a a lot bigger regional copper play.”

    Rae mission

    Danvers is a part of the bigger Rae mission that incorporates quite a few excessive grade copper mineralisation occurrences and hosts all first-order controls for a sediment-hosted copper deposit.

    Rae has a historic, non-JORC useful resource of 4.16Mt at 2.96% copper.

    For drilling to have prolonged the strike of mineralisation at Danvers is massively optimistic on condition that world-class intersections have been made earlier this yr.

    WCN is now finishing up diamond drilling on the Hulk and Stark prospects.
