Power Metallic Hits High-Grade Copper Intersections at Lion Zone
Event summary
- Power Metallic intercepted 16.55 meters of 15.11% CuEqRec in hole 25-049 and 7.60 meters of 7.20% CuEqRec in hole 25-043 at the Lion Zone.
- The Lion Zone drilling raised confidence for future mineral resource estimates to an Indicated Resource classification.
- Exploratory drilling continued 500m west and 700m east of Lion, with hints of Lion-style mineralization and potential for another deposit.
- The company aims to deliver a near-term Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) based on ongoing high-grade assays.
The big picture
Power Metallic's high-grade copper intersections at the Lion Zone position the company to potentially advance the project towards a near-term PEA. The ongoing drilling and exploration efforts aim to define and expand the high-grade mineralization, which could significantly enhance the project's economic viability. The company's focus on delivering excellent results and communicating its positive message about the high-grade copper and precious metals discovery is crucial for changing market perception and unlocking value.
