Mukuba Resources Continue Drilling Commodity of Copper Mineralization in Northcore Project

Written By mine on Senin, 27 September 2010 | 05.43

Mukuba Resources Limited is pleased to announce that assay results from its ongoing drilling program on its Northcore Project continue to confirm commodity copper mineralization. Mukuba plans to continue to focus its 2010 exploration program on various high priority targets within the larger exploration license area on the Northcore Project, located southwest of Ndola, Zambia.

President and CEO of Mukuba Resources, Trevor Richardson, ?commented, "I am pleased with the results from the current intercepts of copper mineralization. They validate the presence of pervasive copper in the system and will assist our technical team in building a model to move toward and assess the potential for higher copper concentrations within the areas of targets 17 and 18. In addition to this area, various other targets are being tested with soil sampling and drilling."

Current copper commodity drill core assay results were designed to test copper anomalies identified from the 2009 IP and soil sampling. A total of 5,283 metres (21 holes) of diamond drilling have been completed to date of the planned 10,000 metre drilling program. Analysis of the samples using a mixed, four acid digest with an AAS finish on the bulked solution is being carried out by SGS Mineral Services (Zambia) in Kalulushi. The laboratory is currently awaiting final accreditation following a further inspection in November 2010.

In addition, regional soil sampling across various new target areas within the larger license area has been completed and anomalous areas are being followed up with closer spaced soil grid lines to better delineate newly identified soil targets and it is anticipated that additional drill targets will be identified and selected based on the level of coincidence between the new soil geochemical survey and airborne geophysical results.
