Executive Summary

  • Inzinc Mining released results from the final three shallow drill holes, extending the B‑9 mineralized zone to 120 m depth and increasing its strike length by >40 % to ~700 m.
  • Multiple high‑grade intersections were reported, including a 4.2 m interval of 3.3 % Zn, 0.3 % Pb, 2.6 g/t Ag at 121.4 m depth and a 19.1 m zone averaging 3.3 % Zn, 0.7 % Pb, 7.4 g/t Ag near surface.
  • The drilling program has tested only ~10 % of the 7.5‑km Main trend, indicating substantial upside potential for further exploration.

Key Details

  • Drill hole IB25‑038: 3.3 % Zn, 0.3 % Pb, 2.6 g/t Ag over 4.2 m from 121.4 m depth (40 m down‑dip of 2018 discovery).
  • Second horizon (IB25‑038): 3.2 % Zn, 0.4 % Pb, 2.6 g/t Ag over 3.2 m from 86.6 m depth; present in adjacent holes north and south.
  • Trend extension: B‑9 strike length now >700 m (up from ~500 m), open along strike and down dip.
  • Near‑surface massive sulphide expansion: Hole IB25‑029 intersected 11.0 % Zn, 2.3 % Pb, 27.1 g/t Ag over 3.0 m at 61.0 m depth, located 80 m north of previous high‑grade hole IB18‑003.
  • Widest intersection to date (IB25‑032): 3.3 % Zn, 0.7 % Pb, 7.4 g/t Ag over 19.1 m from 29.9 m depth; includes a higher‑grade sub‑interval of 8.5 % Zn, 2.1 % Pb, 21.3 g/t Ag over 2.0 m at 31.0 m depth.
  • Overall drilling coverage: 11 holes totaling 1,089 m drilled; only ~10 % of the prospective 7.5‑km Main trend sampled to date.
  • Geological context: Mineralization characterized by radiolarian‑type replacement; presence of gallium noted in zinc‑rich massive sulphide sample.
  • Infrastructure: Indy project sits on a 200 km² tenure with road, rail, power, port and smelter access nearby.
