Errington Metals Reports 2025 Drill Results and Further Defines Expansion Potential At Errington Zone
Errington Metals Corp. reported results from its 2025 drilling program at the Errington mineralized zone, part of the Company’s Sudbury Basin Project. The results indicate that Errington Main remains open at depth and Errington West remains open along strike, supporting the Company’s ongoing work towards a future mineral resource estimate. New drill results indicate that Errington Main remains open down dip and Errington West remains open along strike. Drilling at Errington West extended mineralization westward and returned copper, zinc, lead, gold, and silver grades comparable to previous drilling in the West Zone. Drilling below Errington Main intersected a broad gold-rich massive sulphide interval, highlighting a potential new area for follow-up drilling. Significant Drill Intercepts from 2025 drill program include: Errington Main: 13.8 m grading 1.11% Cu, 2.19% Zn, 0.64% Pb, 1.02 g/t Au and 64.9 g/t Ag in EME-25-046. 21.5 m grading 0.38% Cu, 0.08% Zn, 0.13% Pb, 1.23 g/t Au and 24.7 g/t Ag in EME-25-047, including 5.0 m grading 1.07% Cu, 0.06% Zn, 0.24% Pb, 3.06 g/t Au and 60.1 g/t Ag. Errington West: 23.7 m grading 0.54% Cu, 5.76% Zn, 1.64% Pb, 2.61 g/t Au and 130.2 g/t Ag in EME-25-035. 2.1 m grading 2.9% Cu, 6.77% Zn, 2.37% Pb, 0.42 g/t Au and 121.3 g/t Ag in EME-25-039. The current drill program continues to test strike extensions at Errington West and down-dip extensions at Errington Main. Errington completed a diamond drilling program at the Errington mineralized zone to test on the potential for along strike and down dip extensions of the Errington Main and Errington West Zones. Assays for this drilling are reported in Table 1. New interpretations have been made to the 3D geological model across all mineralized zones at Errington with a focus on faults that offset mineralization. Key faults are developed near-parallel to the host rock strata such as the Christie Fault, are steeply dipping and reverse orientation, which offset the Vermilion mineralized horizon toward the north as a stacked sequence. As a preliminary test, four holes were designed along the western strike and down dip extensions of Errington West due to sparse drill coverage in this area. Errington West was outlined as disconnected zones, but historic drill coverage was not adequate to determine continuity and the western strike extent remained open. Holes EME-25-039, -040, and -041 intersected massive sulphide mineralization where the displacement of the mineralized zones was poorly defined. Hole EME-25-041 demonstrates the up-dip extension of Errington West toward surface and hole EME-25-040 tracks the mineralization 50m westward. The copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver grades are comparable to previous drilling in the West Zone, so the western extension will continue to be targeted in the current drilling program. In addition, two drill holes were completed at Errington Main at the down-dip extension to mineralization where drill spacing was sparse on the west side and where elevated gold grades in massive sulphide were returned in the east. Massive sulphides were intersected in both, demonstrating the Main Zone down-dip extension potential. In hole EME-25-047, a relatively thick massive pyrite zone also contains sphalerite and chalcopyrite with consistent gold grades, above 1 gram per tonne, throughout the interval. Gold-rich massive sulphide mineralization has not been a primary historical target so the potential for further extensions remains to be tested in the current drilling program.
