the metals exist yes and if you read this part of the NR you will see that the down hole IP has picked up a significant anomoly which is a very interesting target that BMK will go after in July. This was a very long intersection with a half decent shorter section of higher grade copper and zinc. The long intersection of mineralization may just be part of the higher grade ore body....imo.

Diamond drill hole BP11-Cu06 was drilled to test the continuity of mineralization down the postulated fold limb and intersected 167 metres of 0.39% Cu and 1.13% Zn. Within this interval was:

  • 11.50m of 1.15%Cu (208.5-220m)
  • 50.5m of 3.62% Zn including 9m of 6.88% Zn (169.5-220m)

The geophysical results of this borehole indicate a very highly conductive body of considerable size at depth, and to the north of the intersected mineralization. This interpretation agrees with the geochemical analysis. Copper is far more conductive than zinc, suggesting that the highly conductive body identified by the geophysical probe of BP11-Cu06 could be copper rich.
