HM Exploration Corp Commences Optical And Acoustic Televiewer Program at Lewis Pilley’s Project HM Exploration Corp. had contracted DGI Geoscience Inc. to conduct an Optical and Acoustic Televiewer (OTV/ATV) program on the Phase One drill holes at its Lewis Pilley's Project in Newfoundland, Canada. DGI Geoscience has commenced an Optical and Acoustic Televiewer (OTV/ATV) program on the Phase One drill holes completed at the Clifford Jones (Bull Road) Zone. The program will provide in situ structural measurements of planar and linear geological features. HM will use the structural measurements to support 3D modelling and reconstruction of the VMS system, providing valuable insight into the orientation of the mineralized zones and potential vectors toward the system’s original depositional source. Assays for holes PI-26-008 through PI-26-012 remain pending. Televiewers produce accurate and consistent oriented images of drill holes, allowing in situ structural measurements of both planar and linear geological features. Data can be visualized as 3D “virtual core” or as 2D “unwrapped core,” and structures can be measured very rapidly. Data is catalogued automatically and ready to import into 3D modelling programs. Common features analyzed include veins, contacts, bedding/foliation, fractures/joints, faults, fold limbs and hinges. Announcement • Jul 22
Hm Exploration Corp. Reports Significant Mineralization Results At Lewis Pilley's Project HM Exploration Corp. announced assay results from the first seven of twelve drill holes from the Phase One drilling program at its Lewis Pilley's Project in Newfoundland, Canada. First assays confirm significant polymetallic mineralization in both the upper and lower sulphide lenses, supporting the Company's geological model. Most of the Project is underlain by Ordovician submarine volcanic rocks of the Roberts Arm Group which is regionally identified as part of a mature arc sequence referred to as the Buchans-Roberts Arm Belt that also hosts the historic Buchans mine. Mineralization occurs as lower grade (Spencer’s Dock); medium grade (Old Mines); and high grade (3B-Zone/Clifford Jones) deposits that are of both sub-seafloor replacement and exhalative varieties. The deposits are often flanked by extensive chlorite, sericite, silica, K-feldspar and epidote alteration often observed in bimodal-felsic VMS systems. The Spencer's Dock area displays sericite/silica alteration that generally increases in intensity near mineralized zones, while the 3B/Old Mine areas display sericite/silica alteration that is abundant but less widespread and is more intense when proximal to mineralized zones. VMS deposits are a globally significant source of copper, zinc, lead, silver, and gold. The Project’s geology shares key characteristics with known VMS districts in Newfoundland, including the past producing Buchans, Ming and Rambler Mines, supporting the exploration potential of the Project. The Project is road accessible and situated approximately twenty-five km east of the town of Springdale, approximately fifty-five km southeast of Firefly Metals’ Green Bay Project and approximately one hundred fifty km from the Pine Cove Mill and Port by way of major roads. The Project has a long history of mining and exploration dating back to the late 1800s when the Pilley’s Island Pyrite Company Ltd. produced approximately 450,000 tonnes of massive pyritic ore from the Pilley’s Island Mine-Old Mines. The Project hosts a cluster of VMS systems and prospects with demonstrated high-grade Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag+/-Au intersections. Mineralization is typical bimodal-felsic VMS, with both massive sulphide and sulphide-clast breccias. The geological setting is directly analogous to the Buchans camp, and the presence of sulphide-clast breccias is a strong vector toward proximal massive sulphide lenses. Most of the historic showings that fall within the extents of the Project have not seen systematic exploration. Many of the historic drill holes were shallow and drilled in a vertical orientation limiting the geological knowledge of the extents of the underlying lithology and mineralization. Work is being planned to validate historic assay results as well as collect new data from the 3B-Zone, Clifford Jones (Bull Road) Extension, Bouzanne Shaft, Henderson, Mansfield and Pilley’s Cove Showings. Drill collar locations were determined from hand-held GPS (NAD83-Zone 21N) and the drill rig was aligned using a Reflex TN-14 Gyrocompass alignment tool. All samples are given a unique sample ID and number and shipped directly to Eastern Analytical Ltd., a commercial laboratory that is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited and completely independent of the Company. Analytical methods include ICP-OES (34 element) with four-acid digestion, Au Fire Assay (30g) with AA finish, and Ore Grade Assay (multi-acid digestion) with AA finish. The Company inserts standard, blank, and duplicate samples as part of its standard QA/QC procedures. Nicholas Rodway, P. Geo, is CEO and Director of the Company, and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mr. Rodway has supervised the preparation of, and verified and approved the technical content in this news release. Verification included review of drill logs, sample tags, chain of custody procedures and analytical protocols. No limitations were noted during the verification process. Announcement • Jun 30
HM Exploration Corp. Discovers New Blind Massive Sulphide Lens At Lewis Pilley’S Project HM Exploration Corp. has completed an additional three holes as part of the phase one drilling program at the Company’s Lewis Pilley’s Project, located in Newfoundland, Canada. Holes six, seven, and eight have successfully intersected massive sulphide including a new blind discovery of massive sulphide mineralization at a drill core depth of approximately 155 m. Multiple mineralized intervals encountered displaying varying types of mineralization ranging from disseminated – semi-massive – massive sulphide, including: PI-26-006 from 11.43 – 13.62m down-hole; 2.19m drilled length. PI-26-007 from 7.00 – 28.00m down-hole; 21.00m drilled length. PI-26-007 from 176.85 – 179.00m down-hole; 2.15m drilled length. PI-26-008 from 15.00 – 28.00m down-hole; 13.00m drilled length. PI-26-008 from 163.45 – 170.22m down-hole; 6.77m drilled length. The identification of a second sulphide lens below the previously recognized upper debris-flow horizon supports the interpretation of a vertically extensive VMS system and provides a new exploration target for follow-up drilling. Assays pending; HM looks forward to providing updates as drilling continues. Drilling was focused on evaluating the continuity of the mineralized system below known surface showings and along strike of Clifford Jones Zone to improve the Company’s understanding of the geological controls on mineralization. Visual observations from drilled holes indicate that the upper targeted copper-bearing debris flow was successfully intersected, with zones of alteration and massive to semi-massive sulphide mineralization observed in the drill core. Drill holes 7 and 8 have successfully intersected a new lower mineralized sulphide lens that was previously undiscovered. The lower-lens appears more massive indicating that the geometry of this lens may assist with vectoring towards the source vent(s). Core samples have been submitted to the laboratory for analysis. Assay results will be released once they have been returned to the Company. All three holes from this release intersected a wide range of massive, semi-massive and disseminated sulphide mineralization over the following drill core lengths: PI-26-006 from 11.43 – 13.62m down-hole; 2.19m drilled length. PI-26-007 from 7.00 – 28.00m down-hole; 21.00m drilled length. PI-26-007 from 155.31 – 155.97m down-hole; 0.66m drilled length. PI-26-007 from 176.85 – 179.00m down-hole; 2.15m drilled length. PI-26-008 from 7.55 – 12.52m down-hole; 4.97m drilled length. PI-26-008 from 15.00 – 28.00m down-hole; 13.00m drilled length. PI-26-008 from 163.45 – 170.22m down-hole; 6.77m drilled length. Mineralization can be described as clast-dominated debris zones consisting of sub-angular to angular fragments of massive sulphide (~85% of intercept) composed of Cpy + Py ± Sph ± Gn suspended in interstitial fine-grained disseminated sulphides (Py + Cpy ± Sph ± Gn) and milled felsic ± mafic rock. Matrix-dominated debris flow composed of fragments of sub-rounded to angular clasts of massive sulphide (Py + Cpy ± Sph ± Gn) and felsic ± mafic lithic fragments suspended in a matrix of fine-grained sulphide (Py + Cpy ± Sph ± Gn) and milled felsic ± mafic rock. The Company cautions that the presence of visible sulphides and visual estimates of mineral abundance are not indicative of grade and should not be considered a substitute for laboratory analysis. Assay results are pending. Drill collar locations were determined from hand-held GPS (NAD83-Zone 21N) and the drill rig was aligned using a Reflex TN-14 Gyrocompass alignment tool.
