Duluth Metals Reports 85 feet of 2.57% Cu Equivalent
TORONTO, ON - Duluth Metals Limited reported assay results for 15 holes drilled on the Twin Metals Project in northeastern Minnesota. These holes were part of the infill and expansion drilling on the Nokomis Deposit, one of four qualified resources in the Project. The new drill results are very positive with 10 holes containing intersections higher than the global Copper Equivalent* ("Cu Eq") grade of 1.5% Cu Eq. Two holes, Mex-227 and 234 continue to confirm higher grade potential east of the Eastern Higher Grade Zone.
Within and east of the Eastern Higher Grade area, drilling highlights include: Mex-227 returned 85.0 feet of 0.916% copper, 0.305% nickel, 3.124 g/t silver and 1.823 grams TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.57%); Mex-233 intersected 40.0 feet of 1.141% copper, 0.281% nickel, 4.713 g/t silver and 1.276 g/t TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.48%); Mex-234 intersected 55.0 feet of 0.825% copper, 0.242% nickel 2.573 g/t silver and 1.490 g/t TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.16).
In close proximity to the "C" Higher Grade area, Mex-231 returned: 69.0 feet of 0.852% copper, 0.272% nickel, 3.053 g/t silver and 1.314 grams TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.18%) including a 26.5 foot section of 1.028% copper, 0.346% nickel, 3.379 g/t silver and 1.470 grams TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.64%).
Within the "A" Higher Grade area, drilling highlights include: Mex-235-W1 returned 111.0 feet of 1.003% copper, 0.321% nickel, 3.841 g/t silver and 1.068grams TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.42%) including a 86.0 foot section of 1.121% copper, 0.362% nickel, 4.290 g/t silver and 1.208 grams TPM (Cu Equivalent* of 2.72%).
As the Twin Metals Project has expanded considerably with the acquisition of additional qualified resources, AMEC E&C Services Inc. has been contracted to complete a new NI 43-101 technical report incorporating the four qualified resources under the Twin Metals Project: the Nokomis, Birch, Maturi and Spruce Deposits.
