VR Resources Strikes High-Grade Polymetallic Mineralization at Nevada Project
Event summary
- VR Resources intersected 317 meters at 0.77% CuEq starting at surface, above 419 meters of 0.48% CuEq in an 881-meter drill hole at New Boston Porphyry-Skarn project in Nevada.
- High-grade interval includes 33.4% CuEq over 2 meters in garnet marble skarn at 535 meters depth.
- Drill hole NB26-003 revealed continuous polymetallic stockwork veining with sulfide to 881 meters depth.
- New Boston project is located near Highway 95 in west-central Nevada with existing infrastructure.
- VR Resources plans follow-up drilling based on the new discovery.
The big picture
VR Resources' discovery at New Boston comes at a time of heightened focus on domestic critical-metal supply chains, particularly for strategic metals like copper, molybdenum, tungsten, silver, and zinc. The project's proximity to infrastructure and the scale of mineralization suggest significant exploration upside. The use of advanced geophysical surveys and geochemical techniques positions VR Resources to potentially unlock substantial value from this underexplored mineral system.
