TORONTO, Nov. 3 /CNW/ – (RMD: TSXV). – Richmond Minerals Inc. (“Richmond” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following exploration update on its Hallé Township project near Belleterre, Québec, in a joint venture with Fort Chimo Minerals Inc. (CNSX: FORT). The Company acts as the operator of the joint venture.
Phase I of the diamond drilling work has now been completed. A total of 1,600 meters was drilled in seven boreholes testing both the North and South Zone geophysical anomalies. Mineralization consisting of pyrrohtite, pyrite, and chalcopyrite hosted within sheared intermediate to basic metavolcanics and clastic metasediments were encountered in all boreholes. The style of mineralization varied from disseminated to massive, and multiple zones were intersected in each borehole.
The mineralization in the North Zone has an apparent minimum strike length of 1.2 kilometers, and the mineralization in the South Zone has an apparent minimum strike length of 900 meters. Both zones are open to strike and depth. Of the 1,600 meters drilled, more than 300 meters were sampled and sent for assaying.
Assay results for the first two boreholes are expected in the near future. Assay results for the remaining holes are expected before the end of November.
