Albright Metals (ASX:ABR) has returned assay results from diamond core samples conducted at the Golden Pike Gold-Antimony Project in New Brunswick, Canada.
Some of the ‘best’ downhole width gold intercepts collected from the Albright Brook prospect include 37.05m @ 1.12 grams per tonne gold from 60.95m, including 2.35m @ 4.76g/t gold from 77.10m; 13.2m @ 1.14g/t gold from 62.3m, including 1.55m @ 2.19g/t gold from 63.7m and 1.3m @ 3.7g/t gold from 69.6m; and 1.88m @ 2.28g/t gold from 100.62m, including 1.38m @ 3.01g/t gold from 101.12m.
The company also returned intersected antimony internal to a larger gold interval, with downhole intercept of 2.46m at 0.50% antimony and 1.72g/t gold from 62.3m, including 0.36m at 3.23% antimony and 2.81g/t gold from 64.4m.
Drilling at the Bond Road prospect has also intersected zones of elevated gold, base metals, and antimony.
Albright Metals will conduct a follow-up drilling campaign at Bond Road, targeting ‘high-grade’ antimony, while also conducting extensional drilling at the gold and antimony system at Albright Brook.
CEO Greg Hill says the results returned from Albright Brook “highlight the scale and prospectivity of the broader mineralised system within the Golden Pike Project”.
“Importantly, the antimony we are encountering is giving us valuable insight as we plan our targeting for the next phase of drilling commencing later this year,” Hill says.
“The prospect of a larger gold and antimony system on the project, in addition to the high-grade Vail Road deposit, is particularly encouraging.”
Albright Metals is a mineral explorer focused on antimony, copper, gold, lithium, and manganese across Australia and Canada.
