Emperor Metals Inc. Announces Additional Results from Its 2024 Drilling Program
Emmpire Metals Inc. share additional results from its 2024 drilling program. The program included 8,166 meters of drilling across 19 new drill holes, and approximately 8,000 meters of historical core assaying. To date, 88% of the new drilling assays have been reported, but only 52% of the total assays for the 2024 season (combined 2024 drilling and historical core resampling). All assays should be finalized by mid-February. This highlights the significant exploration potential to add valuable ounces to the project, supporting the upcoming 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) expected in first quarter or early second quarter. The 2024 program has demonstrated a clear opportunity to expand the footprint of the conceptual open-pit model, and once all results are in, this will guide strategy for the 2025 season. Highlights: DQ24-15 intersects 14.2 meters (m) of 1.2 g/t Au and 20.4 m of 0.6 g/t Au which expands mineralization both within and below the conceptual open pit model. DQ24-13 intersects 8.1 m of 1.0 g/t Au and 30.5 m of 0.5 g/t expanding mineralization up dip in two separate zones within the conceptual open pit model.DQ24-16 intersects 7.1 m of 1.3 g/t which is infill drilling and expands mineralization eastward along strike and within the conceptual open Pit model. Full results for DQ24-13 through DQ24-16, as well as the remaining results for DQ24-12, have been released by SGS Laboratories. Ongoing exploration efforts continue to demonstrate significant potential for resource expansion both within and along strike of the conceptual open pit. This includes the discovery of previously unrecognized low-grade bulk tonnage zones, as well as high-grade gold lenses containing visible gold. This zone consists of moderately to strongly sheared and brecciated mafic flows and tuffs, with areas of intense alteration, including silica, carbonate, sericite, and chlorite. Emperor is also encouraged by the discovery of a new mineralized zone below the conceptual pit-shell, grading 8.1 meters at 1.0 g/t gold. This zone features a quartz-feldspar porphyry (QFP)intrusion surrounded by several mafic flows, which created structural weakness that played a key role in introducing alteration and gold mineralization within the footwall zone. The 2024 drilling campaign at Emperor's Duquesne West Gold Project in Quebec continues to identify extensive low-grade bulk tonnaged zones surrounding the previously known high grade areas. These latest results further solidify the project's immense potential and underscore the company's commitment to unlocking substantial value for its shareholders. The 2024 season leverages advanced exploration techniques to test several scenarios to add ounces and/or expand the footprint: Explore Lower Grade Discoveries: Target additional discoveries within the host rock containing high-grade gold lenses, focusing on the conceptual open-pit model. Expand Mineralized Zones: Extend the lateral footprint of mineralized zones along strike and dip. Discover New Zones: Explore potential new zones not yet included in the conceptual open-pit model., with a particular focus on eastward expansion. These latest results continue to build on the strong momentum generated by last year's drilling program and confirm the presences of extensive low grade bulk tonnage zones surrounding the known high-grade regions. A dispatch list consists of 88 or 176 samples along with their corresponding QA/QC samples for a single batch. This allows complete batches (88 samples) for fire assay. A file for sample tracking records tags used and weights of sample bags shipped to the SGS Lakefield. The pulps are then sent off to SGS Burnaby for analysis. Chain of custody is maintained from the drill to the submittal into the laboratory preparation facility all the way to analysis at the SGS Burnaby B.C. laboratory. Analytical testing is performed by SGS laboratories in Burnaby, British Columbia. High grade gold analysis based on the presence of visible gold analysis based on the presence the presence of visible gold or a fire assay result exceeding 100 ppm, are analyzed by Au - metallic screening, are analyzed by Au -allic screening, 1kg screened to 106um, 1kg screened to 106g fire assay, 50g fire assay, 50g Fire assay, 1.4, 50g fire assay, 1kg screened to 106mm fire assay, 50g fire assays, 50g fire assay, gravimetric, 50g fire assay, 5kg screened to 106um, 50g fire assay, 20.4g fire assay, 1kg screening, 50g fire assay, 100 ppm, 50g fire assay, 70g fire assay, 50gFire assay, gravimetric, gravimetric, 50 g/t fire assay, 50g fire test, 50g fire assay, 400g fire assay.
