Black Mammoth outlines anomaly at Amador

BMM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Black Mammoth Metals Corp. has released results from an induced polarization (IP) survey at its 100%-owned Amador silver property in Nevada, identifying a large, high-chargeability anomaly underlying historic mine workings.
  • The company has newly staked 55 unpatented lode claims, expanding the total property size to approximately 631 hectares (1,560 acres).
  • The company intends to permit five drill sites to test the chargeability anomaly and the potential deeper extension of the high-grade silver shear zone.

Key Details

  • Geophysical Survey Results:
    • The IP survey delineated a large, high-chargeability anomaly with high resistivity.
    • The anomaly extends at least 1.22 kilometres along the range front and under the historic Amador mine workings.
    • The zero-to-50-metre IP depth slice aligns with geophysical and sampling criteria.
    • The 150-to-250-metre depth slice indicates a potential northeastern dip of the sulphide mineralized zone.
  • Historic Context and Sampling:
    • Historic drilling and recent rock-chip sampling in the area encountered significant silver mineralization.
    • Recent rock-chip samples assayed up to 23.05 ounces per ton silver (oz/t Ag).
    • Historic drilling in this specific area has not been followed up on.
    • The silver mineralization is hosted in a quartz-vein shear along a contact zone of Devonian sediments (Slaven chert) with plutonic intrusive.
    • Previous exploration (2003–2010) reported significant silver mineralization in rock chips and in three- to 12-metre drill intervals.
  • Property Expansion:
    • The company newly staked 55 unpatented lode claims at Amador.
    • Claims are administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on the range front and the U.S. Forest Service uphill to the east.
    • Combined with 23 existing claims, the property now covers approximately 631 hectares (1,560 acres).
  • Future Plans:
    • The company initially intends to permit five drill sites.
    • A BLM notice of intent will be filed to test the chargeability anomaly, which encompasses the high-grade silver shear zone along the range front and its potential deeper extension to the west.
