New Mineralization Targets At Kombot Mine

TORONTO - Trigon Metals Inc. reported on drilling of new mineralization targets at its Kombat Mine in Namibia with key highlights from the drilling campaign. The results are from the East 400 area, 150 meters east of the Kavango Pit - the implications being a favorable confirmation of the Kombat trend mineralization. Highlights: Hole 4C (358 azimuth, -58 dip) - 13m, 1.78%Cu, from 28m; Hole 4D (356 azimuth, -55 dip) - 3m, 2.69%Cu, 28.7g/tAg, from 22m; Hole 5C (2 azimuth, -85 dip) - 10m, 1.53%Cu, from 21m; and Hole 6C (352 azimuth, -52 dip) - 12m, 1.98%Cu, from 41m.

The holes reported are from drilling testing gaps in the known mineralization previously thought to be barren. Holes 4C, 4D, 5C and 6C are verification holes testing continuity between areas previously drilled. The results are some of the longest intercepts drilled from surface and with both sulfide and oxide mineralization.

Jed Richardson, President and CEO, said, “We are working towards a first blast in the open pit in April as planned. The team is now working on a detailed mine plan and the mine contractor is currently working on our tailings facility and they have all of the necessary equipment in place for start-up.”
