Mammoth Intersects Multiple Gold Intersections Totalling 61.5 Metres in Step-Out Drill Hole at Its Tenoriba Precious Metal Pr...
19 Julio 2018 - 7:00AM
Mammoth Resources Corp. (TSX-V:MTH),
(the
“Company”) is pleased to announce results from diamond
drill holes TEN 17-09 and TEN 17-10 on its Tenoriba precious metal
property in the Sierra Madre region of southwestern Chihuahua
State, Mexico.
Results are for two step-out holes in the
Masuparia area, in the central portion of the 6 km
long trend of gold mineralization on the property. These diamond
drill holes test 100 metres to the north (TEN 17-09) and 50 metres
to the south and west (TEN 17-10), respectively of prior program
drill hole TDH-07 which assayed 2.01 grams per
tonne (“g/t”) gold equivalent (“gold Eq”)
over 47.0 metres (“m”) within the possible
intersection of two mineralized controls, one oriented
north-northwest and the other northwest. These intersections occur
within a larger approximate one-kilometre diameter area of
ubiquitous gold mineralization in surface chip and channel samples
and multi-metre intersections of gold grading up to 10’s of grams
per tonne (“g/t”) gold equivalent (“gold Eq”), including drill hole
TDH-07 and a 41.0 m intersection grading 0.92 g/t gold
Eq in drill hole TDH-11 and a 23.5 m intersection
grading 1.32 g/t gold Eq in TEN 17-05.
Results are shown in the table below. Drill hole
surface locations, a summary table of the
assay results from the ten drill holes along this trend in
the Masuparia area and drill cross sections
illustrating the location and depth of the mineralized intervals
relative to geophysical and topographic features are
available on the Company's
website under the 'Projects' section; 'Maps, Images and
Photographs' dated July 19, 2018.
Thomas Atkins, President and CEO of
Mammoth commented on these results stating: “Although we
haven’t figured out all the controls to mineralization in this
central area, as evidenced by the weaker assay results in hole TEN
17-09, drill hole TEN 17-10 continued to add a total of 61.5 metres
of potentially economical gold in what is an approximate
one-kilometre, northwest trend of mineralization in this area.
“Hole TEN 17-10 intersected two three metre
intersections grading 0.72 and 1.99 gram per tonne gold equivalent
plus two lengthy intersections of 22.5 and 24.0 metres grading 0.40
and 0.36 grams per tonne gold equivalent, respectively.
“At this time it’s uncertain whether
mineralization in ten holes drilled along this one-kilometre
northwest trend is geologically controlled or is being defined by
the location of the drill holes intersecting gold along the trend.
Irrespective of geological or drill control, ten drill holes over a
one kilometer area is quite impressive and is made more impressive
by some of the intervals and grades intersected among these ten
holes, including: 47.0 metres grading 2.01 grams per tonne gold
equivalent in TDH-07 and 23.5 metres grading 1.32 grams per tonne
gold equivalent in TEN 17-05.”

Drill Hole TEN 17-09
Drill hole TEN 17-09 is located 100 m north of
hole TEN 17-05 which assayed 0.63 g/t gold Eq over 27.0 m and 1.32
g/t gold Eq over 23.5 m. It appears the north-northwest trending
Metalito structure was intercepted from 66.50 to 71.0 m, a 3.0 m
portion of which averaged 0.42 g/t gold Eq. It is possible this
structure pinches in this area or has been displaced due to
faulting (refer to the Company's website for a surface map
illustrating the surface collar location and a section illustrating
the angle and depth of the drill hole under the 'Projects' section;
'Maps, Images and Photographs' dated the date of this press
release). Further exploration, possibly with the assistance of
surface geophysics oriented perpendicular to the strike of the
Metalito structure may assist in better understanding the location
and dimensions of controls to mineralization in this area. Although
the structure is narrower in this drill hole and is absent the
mineralized pyrite stringers which carried gold in other
intersections along this structure, the structure remains open
towards the north for at least an additional 400 metres, as
evidenced by surface mapping and sampling.
Drill Hole TEN 17-10
Drill hole TEN17-10 targeted the intersection
between the south-southeast extension of the Metalito structure and
the southeastern extension of the same northwest trending feature
targeted in drill hole TEN 17-09 (above), 50 metres south of drill
hole TDH-07 and drill hole TEN17-04 (refer to the Company's website
for a surface map illustrating the surface collar location and a
section illustrating the angle and depth of the drill hole under
the 'Projects' section; 'Maps, Images and Photographs' dated the
date of this press release). The hole intercepted two 3.0 m, 0.72
and 1.99 g/t gold Eq intersections plus two lengthy 22.5 and 24.0 m
intersections with an average grade of 0.40 and 0.36 g/t gold Eq,
respectively. Gold was associated both with and without mineralized
pyrite stringers occurring in some cases over as much as 30 m of
core.
The Company believes this junction area of
the Metalito and east-west structure has good potential to build a
gold resource with additional in-fill drilling. In addition, hole
TEN17-10 ended (from 207.80 to 243.85 m depth) in what appears to
be a potassic altered, magnetic feldspar porphyry intrusive.
Company geologists believe that the intersection of this unit opens
the possibility of a gold-copper porphyry target at depth.
