Step Out Drilling Expands Collective Mining’s Main Breccia Discovery at Apollo to The West and At Depth

  • Visual observations from two more step-out diamond drill holes, APC-25 and APC-28, within the Company’s Main Breccia discovery at the Apollo target (“Apollo”) have expanded the mineralized footprint of the system to the west and at depth. These holes are in addition to previously announced visual observations for step-out hole APC-22, which was drilled from Pad 3 to the northeast and cut more than 400 metres of continuous mineralization.
  • APC-28, which was drilled westwards from Pad 2, is the longest and deepest hole drilled to date into the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo. The hole intersected over 600 metres of continuous breccia mineralization which represents the longest continuously mineralized intercept drilled to date. Visual inspection of the mineralized intercept includes an upper copper rich zone followed by multiple zones enriched by sheeted carbonate base metal (“CBM”) vein overprinting. The hole terminated at approximately 956 metres while still in mineralization.
  • Hole APC-25, which was drilled to the northwest from Pad 3 and designed as a short step-out hole, cut more than 100 metres of favourable mineralization beginning at 65 metres below surface. Visual inspection of mineralization indicates that the intercept will be enriched in copper with 1.5% to 2.5% chalcopyrite being recorded in the logs. This is the westernmost hole drilled to date within the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo and opens the potential for further shallow mineralization expansion to the west.
  • Assay results for the remaining nine holes from the 2022 program are outstanding and expected in the near term.

Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: To date, every time that we have undertaken step-out drilling at the Main Breccia system of Apollo, we have expanded the size of the discovery. The exceptional continuity encountered in drilling highlights the potential for a very large, bulk tonnage deposit with robust grades due to the copper-silver-gold mineralization within the breccia matrix being deposited from both a porphyry source as well as low and intermediate sulphidation vein systems. We will remain aggressive in 2023 with drilling set to resume in the coming days.”

TORONTO, Jan. 5, 2023 /CNW/ – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce visual observations from two additional step-out holes drilled into the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo (“Apollo”), which is located within the Guayabales project in Caldas, Colombia. The Main Breccia discovery is a high-grade, bulk tonnage copper-silver-gold porphyry-related system, which owes its excellent metal endowment to multiple phases of mineralization which include older copper-silver-gold porphyry mineralization and younger, overprinting, sheeted carbonate base metal vein systems.

Details

Twenty-two diamond drill holes with accompanying assay results have now been announced at Apollo and a further nine holes await assay results in the near term. The Company recently completed two westerly directed step out diamond drill holes, APC-25 and APC-28, drilled from its southernmost drill pad (Pad 3) and from its easternmost drill pad (Pad 2). The holes were designed to test for western and depth extensions to the Main Breccia discovery. The following visual observations are highlighted from the two step out holes:

Hole APC-25 was drilled approximately northwest from Pad 3 to a maximum depth of 215.80 metres and was designed to test for potential westerly extensions to shallow and outcropping breccia mineralization. The hole intersected more than one hundred metres of continuous mineralization beginning at 73 metres down hole (65 metres vertical) and continued until approximately 180 metres downhole (160 metres vertical). The mineralized angular breccia contains a sulphide matrix which includes 1.5% to 2.5% chalcopyrite and between 1% and 3% pyrite plus pyrrhotite. The breccia has been overprinted by a zone of carbonate and base metal (sphalerite and galena) veins which based on previously announced results, host higher gold grades. APC-25 is the westernmost hole drilled into the main breccia discovery and opens the potential for further shallow mineralization in the west.

Hole APC-28 was drilled steeply to the west from Pad 2 to a maximum depth of 956.35 metres and was designed to test for western and depth extensions to the Main Breccia system. The hole intersected a hanging wall zone followed by the main zone of mineralized breccia material. The hanging wall zone was 19 metres thick beginning at 286 metres downhole and then the main zone of mineralization began at 354 metres downhole and continued to the end of the hole at 956.35 metres. The main zone of mineralized breccia hosts an upper portion where the sulphide matrix is rich in copper (chalcopyrite 0.7% to 1.5%), pyrite and pyrrhotite, and a lower portion where multiple zones of overprinting CBM veins were observed. APC-28 is the deepest and longest hole drilled to date and hosts the widest zone of continuous breccia mineralization intercepted to date. The hole was terminated while still in mineralization due to the limitations of the drill rig.

In 2022, a total of 14,975 metres (31 holes) were drilled at the Apollo target. To date assay results have been released for 22 holes with results for the holes that remain outstanding expected in early 2023.

The Company’s 2023 drill program will begin in the coming days and will focus on targeting the high-grade subzones within the Main Breccia system while simultaneously expanding the potential size of the system. Additionally, the Company will remain aggressive in testing new targets at Apollo including the newly generated copper and molybdenum porphyry target located 150 metres south of the Main Breccia system.

Your Crystal Ball for 2023

No one, has a crystal ball when it comes to the future. But, we wanted to share how you may want to position ourself for the future.

#1 PURCHASE PHYISCAL PRECIOUS METALS

  • Why: As a Savings/Financial Insurance/Protection from Government Stupidity.
  • Where to Buy: Maurice Jackson: https://www.milesfranklin.com/faq-maurice/
  • Frequency: Every 2 Weeks.
  • Percentage of Portfolio: Minimum 10%, but we hold approximately 35% in our portfolio.
Economics in One Lesson, Proven and Probable

GREAT FOUNDATIONAL READINGS:

  • Methodology: Using the Ratio’s.
  • Dow:Gold Ratio is indicating that Gold is on sale relative to the Dow. When the ratio is between 4-5, it is more favorable to be in general equities and real estate. At present the ratio is 1 share of the Dow = 18 oz of Gold.
  • Looking further, Silver and Platinum are on sale relative to Gold.
  • Gold:Silver Ratio At present 1 oz of Gold = 76.5 oz of Silver. When the ratio is between 45-54 trade your Silver in for Gold. Note: Silver Eagles have demanded a significant premium the past 8 months. Which actually reduced the Gold:Silver Ratio inside the 45-54 range.
  • Platinum:Gold Ratio: At present .59 oz of Platinum is = 1 oz of Gold. When the ratio is equal to and or greater than 1, trade your Platinum in for Gold.
  • A great resource on the power of Ratio’s and when to buy and sell is: Bob Moriarty’s: Nobody Knows Anything (Must Read)!
Nobody Knows Anything, Proven and Probable

#2 ROYALTY AND PROJECT GENERATORS

  • Royalty and Project Generators use a unique business model relative to their mining industry peers.
  • Why: They tend to outperform mining exploration companies accretively (Highlighted Below):

ROYALTY COMPANIES: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/sp/how-precious-metals-royalty-and-streaming-companies-create-value

PROJECT GENERATORS: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/project-generators-exploration-risk-lower-cost/

#3 JUNIOR MINING/EXPLORATION COMPANIES

  • These companies are most speculative and offer tremendous upside and conversely a lot of downside. We are biased and are active buyers of our partner/advertisers found (Here). For a deeper dive into the mining/exploration industry: (Must Reads):
  • What Became of the Crow by Bob Moriarty
  • Mineral Exploration and Mining Essentials by Robert Stevens
Mineral Exploration and Mining, Proven and Probable

EXPLORATION COMPANIES: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/mineral-exploration-roadmap/

#4 HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE

  • Commit your future to paper. Not having a plan, is a plan. A foolish one, but is a plan. If you don’t have a plan for your savings and investments someone else does. SCHEDULE YOUR PATH.
  • Be willing to study each of the aforementioned. Don’t believe the hype! Don’t get mislead by fancy thumbnails, price predictions, and narratives on manipulation. Is there manipulation? Yes, in every market! Don’t complain about manipulation, learn to leverage manipulation in your favor by realizing you are being offered a discounted price!
  • Be pragmatic, and be patient. Your competition is never patient. They want to price to rise on their schedule, which was yesterday. They will be your best friends, because they have have fast hands and love to sell at the wrong time. If the price goes down, and nothing fundamental has changed with management, the project/s, and or results, there is your buying opportunity!!!
  • Very few investors/speculators are in this space, you don’t have much competition. The best way to beat your competition in this space, is not to follow the herd. Remember, no one get’s it right all the time, you just need to be better than your competition.

Collective Mining Discovers a High-Grade Copper and Molybdenum Porphyry Related Soil Anomaly 150 metres South of the Main Breccia Discovery at Apollo 

  • New assay results from detailed soil geochemistry sampling have outlined a high-grade porphyry anomaly averaging greater than 500 parts per million (“ppm”) copper and 30 ppm molybdenum with highest values up to 1,125 ppm copper and 163 ppm molybdenum.  
  • Located only approximately 150 metres south of the southernmost modelled boundary of the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo, this new high-grade anomaly covers an area measuring 250 metres by 150 metres and remains completely open for expansion to the west, east and south. 
  • Follow-up reconnaissance geological work at surface has identified a potassic altered porphyry diorite hosting quartz, molybdenum, and chalcopyrite veins. Surface rock chip sampling from limited weathered (leached) outcrop has returned grades of up to 0.28% copper and 0.13% molybdenum. 
  • The soil anomaly compares favorably in grade and is slightly larger than the soil anomaly covering the southern portion of the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo where recent assay results from drilling have intercepted the highest copper grades to date including drill hole APC-18 which averaged 168.6 metres at 0.98 g/t gold, 69 g/t silver and 0.5% copper. 
  • Immediate plans are underway to test the porphyry target with the first drill hole expected to begin in early Q1, 2023. 
  • Three rigs continue to drill the Main Breccia at Apollo with holes APC-22 through APC-27 awaiting assay results and holes APC-28 through APC-30 nearing completion ahead of a short break for the seasonal holiday.  

Toronto, Ontario, December 14, 2022 – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from soil and rock chip sampling undertaken south of the Main Breccia discovery at the Apollo target (“Apollo”) within the Company’s Guayabales project located in Caldas, Colombia. As part of its fully funded 23,000 metre drill program for 2022, there are currently three diamond drill rigs operating at the Apollo target.  The Main Breccia discovery at Apollo is a high-grade, bulk tonnage copper-gold-silver porphyry-related breccia system with previously announced assay results including:

Executive Chairman, Ari Sussman stated: “The discovery of a high-grade copper and molybdenum soil anomaly associated with a mineralized porphyry body just south of our Main Breccia discovery at Apollo is exciting. As drilling continues to expand the Main Breccia discovery at Apollo, our early-stage exploration team has been focused on prospecting the rest of the Apollo target area to determine if a possible source exists for the copper mineralization found within the breccia discovery. Given the proximity to our Main Breccia discovery, this new high-grade porphyry target suggests we may have found the source. We are eager to test the new target and plan to initiate drilling in January as part of our upcoming 2023 drilling program. We are looking forward to an exciting 2023 as we continue to drive shareholder value through aggressive expansion drilling of the Main Breccia discovery while testing new targets.” 

Details (See Figures 1–3) 

The Company’s exploration teams have recently undertaken outcrop mapping and soil sampling within the Apollo area with the objective of outlining new targets for drilling. This work has outlined a coherent and well-defined soil anomaly for copper and molybdenum covering dimensions of 250 metres east-west by 150 metres north-south. The anomaly is defined by over 70 soil samples with copper values ranging from 310-1,125pmm and Molybdenum values up to 163ppm. Gold in soil within the anomaly has also returned numerous samples (n=12) ranging from 0.1 to 0.4 g/t. The soil anomaly locates only 150 metres south of the southernmost outcropping portion of the northerly dipping Main Breccia discovery at Apollo as defined by drilling and surface outcrop sampling. The southern copper and molybdenum anomaly is still open at surface to the west, east and to the south. 

Reconnaissance geological mapping and rock chip sampling within the anomalous soil area has identified porphyry diorites with secondary biotite alteration hosting porphyry “B” veins with center and border lines of chalcopyrite and molybdenum. Disseminated chalcopyrite was also observed within the limited outcrop exposures with rock chip sampling reporting grades up to 0.28% of copper, 0.13% of molybdenum and 0.8 g/t gold. 

The Company is currently organizing and constructing a new drill pad to test the target with diamond drilling in January 2023. 

The larger Apollo target area, which includes the Main Breccia discovery and other breccia and porphyry targets, is defined to date by surface mapping, rock sampling and copper and molybdenum soil geochemistry and covers a 1,000 metres X 1,200 metres area. The Apollo target area hosts the Company’s new Main Breccia discovery plus multiple CBM vein systems located within and above and below the mineralized angular breccia. Additional untested breccia discoveries locate to the NE and SE of the main breccia discovery. The newly defined porphyry target, as outlined in this press release, is located 150 metres due south of the southernmost end the Main Breccia discovery and is flanked to the southeast by outcrops hosting a high density of porphyry quartz veins associated with early biotite veins in diorite porphyry.  The larger Apollo target area also remains open for further expansion.

A Diamond In The Rough

  • A profitable quarter and more on the horizon
  • A strategic joint venture suggests continued success
  • Rising interest in diamonds- A hard asset
  • Dubai is a buyer of the unpolished stones
  • Diamcor Mining (DMIFF) and undervalued OTC stock

A diamond is a solid form of the element carbon, with its atoms arranged in a crystal structure called a diamond cube. Most natural diamonds form over one billion years in the earth’s mantle, between 93 and 155 miles below the surface, and pressure transforms the carbon into stones.  

An unpolished diamond is in the stone’s natural state while polishing processes the stone into the jewels that are a “girl’s best friend.” De Beer’s iconic slogan, “A diamond is forever,” dates to 1947 and has become a symbol of love as engagement, wedding, and anniversary jewelry contains the stones. Aside from its use in jewelry, diamonds are critical for industrial cutting and polishing tools. In today’s markets, the case for investing in diamonds has become compelling.

Diamcor Mining Inc (DMIFF) is a Canadian producer with significant ties with the international diamond industry. The company recently reported a profitable quarter, which could lead to a higher stock price over the coming months and years.

A profitable quarter and more on the horizon

Diamcor Mining, Inc. reported third-quarter results showing growth and profits in late October. Operating results improved quarter-over-quarter with the sale of 3,776.33 carats of rough diamonds, up from 3,061.70 in Q2 2022. Third quarter revenue of around $2.1 million was higher than the $557.6 thousand in Q2.

Meanwhile, the company sales averaged $556.08 per carat in Q3 compared with $182.11 in Q2. The jump in the per-carat price came from selling a 59.35-carat gem quality unique rough diamond to a Middle Eastern investor.

Diamcor’s CEO, Dean Taylor, said, “We are very pleased with the continued quarterly growth achieved again for the period ending September 30, 2022, and remain optimistic given the recent announcement of the delivery of 5,833 carats for the first tender and sale of this quarter (Q4 2022).” The Q4 sale is already 54.5% above the carats sold in Q3 and could result in another profitable quarter when Diamcor reports results in early 2023.  

A strategic alliance suggests continued success

Anyone with even slight knowledge of the worldwide diamond business knows two names, Tiffany and De Beers. Tiffany is synonymous with diamonds, and De Beers is the South African mining and marketing giant.

Diamcor has established a long-term strategic alliance and the first right of refusal with Tiffany & Co. Canada, a subsidiary of the parent Tiffany & Co. headquartered in New York. The agreement is for Tiffany to purchase up to 100% of the future production of rough diamonds from the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project at the current prices determined by the parties on an ongoing basis. Tiffany provided Diamcor with financing to advance the project. Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) is a publicly traded company listed on the Paris Stock Exchange (Euronext) which owns Tiffany & Co.

Meanwhile, the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project comprises approximately 5,888 hectares directly adjacent to De Beer’s flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. In February 2011, Diamcor acquired the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project from De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited. In September 2014, the South African Department of Mineral Resources granted a Mining Right for the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project for 657.71 hectares of the Projects total area of 5,888 hectares. Diamcor has applied for additional mining rights for the remaining hectares.

Tiffany is a high-end retail leader in diamonds, and De Beers is a wholesale giant. Diamcor has established a joint venture with the retail leader and is a neighbor of a producing leader.

Rising interest in diamonds- A hard asset

Bain & Company is a US management consulting company headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. The company provides advice to public, private, and non-profit organizations. In Bain’s report on The Global Diamond Industry 2021-2022, the consulting company said, “A brilliant recovery shapes up.” Some of the report’s highlights include:

  • Revenues recovered across the diamond supply chain in 2021, exceeding pre-pandemic levels.
  • Profit margins in every segment recovered, including in mining and retail sales.
  • Rough diamond sales rebounded by over 60% in 2021, surpassing pre-pandemic levels.
  • Rough and polished diamond prices reached the historical average in 2021 but lagged industry peaks.
  • Prices for higher-quality polished diamonds outperformed lower-quality diamonds.
  • In 2020, rough diamond production declined, falling to 111 million carats. In 2021, output grew to 116 million carats, still 20% below the level in 2019.
  • Rough diamond sales grew by 62% in 2021. Strong demand from cutters and polishers caused miners to increase production volumes and release diamonds from inventories.

While diamond prices have come down since April 2022, they have remained at the highest since April 2012.

Source: Diamondse.info

The index does not differentiate between the qualities of diamonds, but it presents an overall picture of price trends in the sector.

The following factors have increased interest in diamonds as an investment or keepsake over the past months:

  • The leading stock market indices have declined in 2022, leading investors to seek other asset sectors.
  • Inflation has been at its highest level since the early 1980s. Diamonds are a hard asset with a long history as a store of value.
  • While the US dollar has appreciated against other world currencies, faith in fiat foreign exchange instruments has declined.
  • Russia is, by far, the world’s leading producer of diamonds. The war in Ukraine, sanctions on Russia and Moscow’s retaliation against “unfriendly” countries supporting Ukraine have increased supply concerns, improving the outlook for diamond prices.
  • Companies like the Diamond Standard Fund are tokenizing, managing, storing, securing diamonds for investors, and have IRA-eligible investment programs.

Markets across all asset classes reflect the geopolitical and economic landscapes. In late 2022, the events and trends continue to favor higher diamond prices, even though they are sitting at the highest price level in a decade.

The Middle East is a buyer of the unpolished stones

In 2021, the countries that imported the most diamonds were:

Source: Worldsstopexports.com

These fifteen countries imported 96.5% of all diamonds in 2021. The United Arab Emirates was the fifth leading diamond-importing country, and the UAE imported more diamonds than the world’s second-leading economy, China. Diamcor’s recent sale of a 59.35-carat unpolished diamond was to a buyer in Dubai.

The rise in crude oil prices has filled the coffers of Middle Eastern producers with cash. With crude oil prices at the highest level in years, revenues continue to flow to the oil-rich area, providing the funds for diamond and other hard asset purchases.

Diamcor Mining (DMIFF), an undervalued OTC stock

At 15.24 cents per share on November 18, Diamcor Mining shares on the over-the-counter market reflect a $17.711 market cap. An average of 86,040 shares trades daily.

Source: Barchart

The chart highlights DMIFF shares reached a low of 4.60 cents in December 2020 and a high of 43.0 cents in October 2021. In 2022, the shares traded between 10.76 and 29.81 cents. At 15.24 cents, DMIFF shares were below the midpoint of this year’s trading range on November 18.

While DMIFF is a penny stock with associated risks, the following factors favor a rise in the share price over the coming months:

  • Diamcor is profitable and its production, and revenues are growing.
  • The interest in the diamond market is robust as investors look for hard assets to combat the highest inflationary pressures in decades.
  • The war in Ukraine continues to cause supply concerns for the international diamond market.
  • The strategic alliance with Tiffany & Co. and mining assets next to De Beers increase Diamcor’s odds of future success.
  • Mining companies have not had a positive beta with the overall stock market. Oil, metals, and other mining companies have outperformed the stock market in 2022, a trend that will likely continue.

At 15.24 cents per share, DMIFF could be a diamond in the rough as the company’s recent Q2 report justifies a higher share price.

Diamcor Announces Continued Strong Tender and Sales Results For the Quarter Ended December 31, 2022

Diamcor Mining, Proven and Probable

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 8, 2022 / Diamcor Mining Inc. (TSXV:DMI)(OTCQB:DMIFF)(FRA:DC3A), (“Diamcor” or, the “Company”) announces today the results of its second and final tender and sale of rough diamonds recovered from the processing of quarry material from the Company’s Krone-Endora at Venetia Project (the “Project”) for the current quarter ended December 31, 2022. In the second and final tender and sale of its third fiscal quarter, the Company sold an additional 2,808.84 carats of rough diamonds generating gross revenues of USD $629,283.94, resulting in an average price of USD $224.04 per carat. This brings the total carats sold in the current quarter to 8,327.58, generating gross revenues of USD $2,054,248.33, resulting in an average price of USD $246.68 for the period. This represents a 121% increase compared to the total carats sold during the previous quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Highlights

  • Specials Category Diamonds. The results of the total tender and sale of rough diamonds for the current quarter included several larger gem quality rough diamonds in the Specials (+10.8 carats) category, with the largest individual diamond being 43.55 carats in size. The Company continues to recover these larger gem quality diamonds which is further confirmation of the potential for these types of rough diamonds to be recovered from the Project’s deposits.
  • Strong Initial Tender and Sale. The Company previously announced that in its initial tender and sale of rough diamonds for the current quarter ended December 31, 2022, a total of 5,518.74 carats were sold, generating gross revenues of USD $1,472,471.03, representing an average price of USD $266.81 per carat.
  • Strong Average Dollar Per Carat Continues. In the Company’s second and final tender and sale for the current quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold an additional 2,808.84 carats, generating gross revenues of USD $629,283.94, representing an average price of USD $224.04 per carat.
  • Total Carats Sold Quarter over Quarter Increased by 121%. The combined total carats tendered and sold in the current quarter ending December 31, 2022, increased by 121% when compared to the 3,776.33 carats tendered and sold in the previous period ended September 30, 2022.
  • Balance of Rough Diamonds Recovered in Period. The Company has recovered and delivered approximately 1,025.35 carats of additional rough diamonds which were not tendered and sold in the two sales completed in the current quarter. These rough diamonds, along with additional rough diamonds recovered prior to December 31, 2022, will be recorded as stock on hand at the end of the current period, and are expected to be tendered in the Company’s next quarter.
  • Strong Revenues Continued in Current Quarter. The gross revenues from the two tenders and sales completed in the current quarter ending December 31, 2022, remained relatively consistent at USD $2,054,248.33 when compared with the previous period’s USD $2,099,951.32. The gross revenues generated in the current quarter were the result of the noted increase in total carats sold, as compared to the previous quarter where the Company sold fewer carats and the gross revenue was positively affected by the sale of a 59.35 carat gem quality special rough diamond.

We are very pleased with the continued progress being made and our ability to achieve a 121% increase in the total carats sold quarter over quarter”, stated Mr. Dean Taylor, Diamcor CEO. “This increase in total carats tendered and sold during this quarter demonstrates the Company’s ability to generate significant revenues without the added benefit of any significant larger high-value rough diamonds, and the positive impact that achieving both of these scenarios could have for our Company moving forward. Our efforts remain focused on continuing to increase processing volumes and the recovery of larger high-valued rough diamonds moving forward.”

About Krone-Endora at Venetia

In February 2011, Diamcor acquired the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project from De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited, consisting of the prospecting rights over the farms Krone 104 and Endora 66, which represent a combined surface area of approximately 5,888 hectares directly adjacent to De Beers’ flagship Venetia Diamond Mine in South Africa. On September 11, 2014, the Company announced that the South African Department of Mineral Resources had granted a Mining Right for the Krone-Endora at Venetia Project encompassing 657.71 hectares of the Project’s total area of 5,888 hectares. The Company has also submitted an application for a mining right over the remaining areas of the Project. The deposits which occur on the properties of Krone and Endora have been identified as a higher-grade “Alluvial” basal deposit which is covered by a lower-grade upper “Eluvial” deposit. The deposits are proposed to be the result of the direct-shift (in respect to the “Eluvial” deposit) and erosion (in respect to the “Alluvial” deposit) ofmaterial from the higher grounds of the adjacent Venetia Kimberlite areas. The deposits on Krone-Endora occur in two layers with a maximum total depth of approximately 15.0 metres from surface to bedrock, allowing for very low-cost mining to be employed with the potential for near-term diamond production from a known high-quality source. Krone-Endora also benefits from the significant development of infrastructure and services already in place due to its location directly adjacent to the Venetia Mine.

Lion One Discovers New Near-Surface Lode at Tuvatu and Intersects Ore-Grade Mineralization Associated with Near-Mine CSAMT Anomaly

Lion One Metals, Proven and Probable

North Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 8, 2022) – Lion One Metals Limited (TSXV: LIO) (OTCQX: LOMLF) (ASX: LLO) (“Lion One” or the “Company”) provides results from near-mine exploration, identifying two new zones of significant mineralization within the footprint of the deposit. A new lode, named URA1 has been discovered during construction of the development decline; its location corresponds to Tuvatu’s near-surface and earliest scheduled production area: Zone 2. The lode has been further defined through underground channel sampling and subsequent diamond drilling. The URA1 lode will be included in the updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) that the Company aims to release in early 2023. Additionally, several hundred meters to the east of Tuvatu, drillhole TUDDH-612 has intersected mineralization corresponding to a distinct CSAMT gradient anomaly. This release presents significant new results from two separate areas within the general Tuvatu deposit footprint (Figure 1).

Highlights URA1

  • Discovery of near-surface, high-grade URA1 lode from intersection with the development decline, defined through channel sampling (up to 29 g/t Au over 1m in MD-CH-002) and diamond drilling of holes TUDDH-617, 619, and 621 (up to 167.42g/t Au over 0.3m in TUDDH-617, and 27.99 g/t Au over 1.2m in TUDDH-621).
  • Provides increase in volume of mineralized material within the portion of the deposit scheduled for earliest production.
  • A general N-S orientation of the lode corresponds to other major lodes (e.g., URW1) and may indicate the presence of an additional series of undiscovered lodes further to the West of Tuvatu.
  • Underscores the substantial near-mine exploration upside.

Highlights TUDDH-612

  • New ore-grade mineralization of 18.53 g/t Au over 0.6m from 492m corresponding to a sharp CSAMT geophysical gradient anomaly.
  • May represent the possible strike extension of the UR4 lode at Tuvatu, that may also include the deep high-grade intercept in TUDDH-494 at >1100m depth.
  • Tuvatu itself is coincident with a CSAMT gradient of similar magnitude; the recurring correspondence of mineralization with such gradients provides strong validation for the viability of this method for discovery of additional mineralized centers in the caldera. Once completed, this data will provide robust drill targets and substantial projected upside for new discovery.

URA1 lode, Zone 2
During advancement of the 2022 development decline, approximately 75m from the portal entrance, a sharp, clearly defined quartz-sulfide lode was intersected striking NNE-SSW and dipping 84°SE (Figure 2a). This newly identified structure is defined through underground mapping and has control points in space from chip-channel sampling, (results: Table 1) and a three-hole DDH program (TUDDH-617, 619 and 621; Figure 2b) to test the extent of this new lode (results: Table 2). The lode is named URA1, and represents a completely new, previously unmapped structure occurring within the northwestern, near-surface portion of the Tuvatu deposit (Zone 2). The new occurrence discovered near-surface, in a portion of the Tuvatu orebody that is within the current resource estimation extents, illustrates the extraordinary upside potential of the Tuvatu orebody in general. Table 2 lists the interpreted lode for each of the mineralized intercepts in boreholes TUDDH-617, 619, and 621. It is notable that the high-grade intercepts near the bottom of hole TUDDH-617 between 140.1 and 144.6m remain undefined, potentially representing yet another new lode. Moreover, this illustrates the discovery potential of additional mineralization, especially toward the West Zone where relatively sparse drilling has been completed. Notably, this area is defined by historic drilling carried out at a N-S orientation, which would have limited the exposure of the drilling to mineralized lodes trending in the same orientation.

As the discovery and definition of new features continues to add upside, intersection with known lodes, like the Murau 8 lode, intersected with TUDDH-621 at 105.3m returning 4.8m at 30.75 g/t gold continues to provide confidence in the grade continuity of known lodes.

TUDDH-612 and CSAMT profile 6
As part of the Company’s ongoing near-mine exploration program, drillhole TUDDH-612 was completed to test the sharply defined CSAMT1 gradient anomaly on profile 6 (Figure 3). Drill hole TUDDH-612 intersected 18.53 g/t Au over 0.6m at 491.8m depth along the borehole.

As shown in Figure 1, this area is located several hundred meters from the current Tuvatu mineral resource outline. As such, the mineralization intersected at this location represents a new target zone of potential high-grade mineralization that warrants follow-up. Furthermore, the mineralized intercept in hole TUDDH-612 corresponds closely to the strike projection of the UR4 lode, along with the previously reported, deep intercept in TUDDH-494 of 12.2 g/t Au at a depth along the hole of 1106.3m (see April 8, 2022 news release). As such, these intercepts may indicate the extension of the UR4 lode toward the northeast and at depth, increasing LIO’s confidence that the mineralized structure has continuity over space for several hundred meters both to the east and at depth. This structure remains open along strike and up and down dip.

The mineralization observed (Figure 3) corresponds directly with a sharply defined CSAMT gradient anomaly, thus lending significant credence to the application of CSAMT for targeting new zones of potential mineralization. The infill CSAMT survey lines completed in 2022 to complement the previous 2019 survey, are currently in final phase of interpretation. The interpreted survey results will be the subject of a future release. It is expected that once finalized, the combined CSAMT geophysical data from previous and recent surveys will play a significant role in outlining new zones of mineralization near Tuvatu, as well as regionally throughout the Navilawa caldera. A third program of CSAMT geophysics will commence in 2023 and is expected to contribute to coverage of the Navilawa caldera within LIO’s most prospective areas of interest.

Collective Mining Drills 298.6 Metres at 1.54 g/t Gold Equivalent and 102.20 metres at 3.38 g/t Gold Equivalent into the Main Breccia Discovery at Apollo

  • Drill hole APC-20 was drilled on the north-eastern side of the Main Breccia discovery at the Apollo target into an open area without any prior drilling and intersected a broad zone of mineralization with an abundance of gold-rich, carbonate base metal veins overprinting angular, gold-silver-copper bearing breccia. This intercept represents the highest-grade intersection over 100 metres drilled to date at Apollo with results as follows:
  • Drill hole APC-19 was drilled in the centre of the system in order to expand the vertical dimension in this location. The hole intercepted a broad and continuous zone of copper-silver-gold mineralization and includes a copper-rich subzone with results including:
  • Based on a newly revised model of the Main Breccia system, the Company has identified two high-grade subzones of mineralization and as a result, will be drill tested in 2023 and are outlined as follows:
  • Three rigs continue to drill at Apollo with holes APC-22 through APC-27 completed and holes APC-28 through APC-30 underway. Additional assay results are anticipated in the near term.

TORONTO, Dec. 7, 2022 /CNW/ – Collective Mining Ltd. (TSXV: CNL) (OTCQX: CNLMF) (“Collective” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce assay results from three additional holes drilled at the Apollo target (“Apollo”) within the Company’s Guayabales project located in Caldas, Colombia.  The Main Breccia discovery at Apollo is a high-grade, bulk tonnage copper-gold-silver porphyry-related breccia system. As part of its fully funded 23,000 metre drill program for 2022, there are currently three diamond drill rigs operating at the Apollo target.

Executive Chairman, Ari Sussman stated: “Drilling into the Main Breccia system at the Apollo target continues to expand the total volume while delivering long and high-grade intercepts. The discovery of the two new high-grade subzones through detailed geological modelling is exciting as both the copper rich zone and the gold rich zone appear to be open for expansion in multiple directions. Additionally, we believe that the two subzones will coalesce within the system, thereby enhancing the potential for the discovery of even higher grades than we have discovered to date. These areas will be a key target for drilling in early 2023. Without question there is a lot more metal to be found at the Apollo target and we will remain aggressive in unlocking the potential of this remarkable discovery.”

Details (See Table 1 and Figures 1–4)

Twenty-two diamond drill holes with accompanying assay results have now been announced at Apollo and a further nine holes are outstanding. Results of three drill holes are announced below:

Drill hole APC-20 was drilled south from pad 5 to a maximum depth of 445.4 metres and successfully expanded the eastern area of the Main Breccia system at depth. The hole intersected 102.2 metres of continuous gold-silver-copper mineralization beginning at 298.2 metres down hole and ending at 400.40 metres. The hole is characterized by mineralized angular porphyry related breccia with a matrix infill of pyrite, some chalcopyrite and carbonate which is overprinted by zones of sheeted carbonate base metal veins (“CBM”) and veinlets which are associated with disseminated sphalerite and carry higher gold grades. These higher grade CBM zones can now be traced and mapped in multiple drill holes and three have been identified with drilling to date; within the lower, upper and central portions of the main breccia body The following results are highlighted:

  • 102.20 metres @ 3.38 g/t AuEq consisting of 2.72 g/t Au, 28 g/t Ag, 0.08% Cu and includes a higher-grade zone of 33.60 metres @ 7.30 g/t AuEq.

Drill hole APC-19 was drilled in a southeast direction from pad 4 to a maximum depth of 582.3 metres. The hole intersected continuous copper-silver-gold mineralization from 199.20 metres (178m vertical) to 497.80 metres (470 metres vertical). The mineralized breccia contains a matrix of abundant chalcopyrite and some pyrite particularly from the beginning of the hole down to 323.50 metres which is associated with higher silver values and averaged 0.63% copper and 64 g/t silver over this interval. This newly identified shallow plunging high-grade copper zone has been intersected in six of the holes drilled to date and future drilling will target extensions of this zone within the main breccia body. Assay results for APC-19 are as follows:

  • 298.60 metres @ 1.54 g/t AuEq consisting of 0.48 g/t Au, 34 g/t Ag and 0.31% Cu and includes 124.30 metres 2.72 g/t AuEq consisting of 0.62 g/t Au, 64 g/t Ag and 0.63% Cu.

Hole APC-21 was drilled at a steep angle towards the north from pad 3 but unfortunately undercut the northerly dipping main breccia body.

With the recently announced assay results for APC-17 and previously announced visuals from APC-22, the potential total volume of rock hosting the Main Breccia discovery within it has approximately tripled in size with the dimensions now measuring 385 metres along strike by 350 metres width by 825 metres.  The discovery remains wide open for expansion and further step-out holes are currently being designed.

Three rigs continue to drill at Apollo with additional assay results from holes APC-22 through APC-30 anticipated in the near term.

The Apollo target area, as defined to date by surface mapping, rock sampling and copper and molybdenum soil geochemistry, covers an 800 metres X 700 metres area. The Apollo target area hosts the Company’s new Main Breccia discovery plus a vein system located above and on the eastern flank of the Main Breccia discovery and the Northern Breccia discovery located 250 metres to the north of the Main Breccia. Multiple additional untested breccia, porphyry and vein targets have been generated and will be drilled in due course. The overall Apollo target area also remains open for further expansion.
