InZinc Discovers "Strongest to Date" Zinc and Silver in Shallow Zones at Indy:
InZinc’s 15m @ 7% Zn, 3.2% Pb, 17.5 g/t Ag at B-9 Apex confirms open-pit potential.
InZinc Mining Ltd. (IZN) has released the first assay results from its spring 2026 diamond drill program at the B-9 Apex Zone of its 100%-owned Indy Sedex project. The company highlighted four holes—IB26-049, 050, 051, and 052—which returned shallow zinc-lead-silver-gallium intersections.
The strongest intercept came from hole IB26-051, which returned 15.0 m grading 7.0% Zn, 3.2% Pb, and 17.5 g/t Ag from 67.1 m downhole. This interval includes a 3.0 m silver-rich zone grading 61.8 g/t Ag, 10.7% Zn, 11.7% Pb, and 2.8 g/t Ga, as well as a second high-grade interval of 10.0 m grading 7.4% Zn, 1.3% Pb, and 7.7 g/t Ag.
Other holes returned multiple shallow intervals, including: * 5.7 m @ 4.8% Zn * 9.8 m @ 2.0% Zn, 2.1% Pb, 11.2 g/t Ag * 8.8 m @ 4.1% Zn, 1.1% Pb, 6.8 g/t Ag
True widths are estimated at 80-100% of downhole lengths. The company states the results demonstrate continuity and open-pit potential, with the 1,000 m B-9 Trend remaining open for expansion.
InZinc Mining Ltd. (IZN) reported shallow, wide high-grade drill intercepts that confirm the up-dip extension of the B-9 Apex discovery and its open-pit viability. The company’s spring 2026 exploration program, which began in early May and is scheduled to conclude in July, was designed to follow up on the B-9 Apex discovery announced during the late-2025 campaign.
The company has a market capitalization of approximately $8.6 million. Without a maiden resource estimate, these results do not alter the fundamental thesis of an early-stage explorer reliant on equity raises. The lack of QA/QC disclosure reduces confidence in the data. A 15-m-wide intercept in a known zone is viewed as a constructive but not surprising step, likely already priced into the equity given the company’s current valuation.
InZinc Mining Ltd. (IZN) is a junior explorer advancing its 100%-owned Indy Sedex project in central British Columbia, targeting zinc-lead-silver-gallium. The B-9 Zone trend extends over 1,000 m of strike, encompassing two main mineralized areas: the near-surface B-9 Discovery Zone and the deeper B-9 Apex Zone. The property benefits from excellent infrastructure, including road, rail, power, and a nearby smelter.
The company has no reserves or resources, is pre-revenue, and relies on equity financing. As of Q1 2026, working capital was $592 k, augmented by a $1.05 M private placement closed in April 2026. Insiders own ~28% fully diluted, and South32 holds adjacent claims.
