Broken Hill Mines (ASX:BHM) is pleased to report further exceptional grade silver-leadzinc intercepts from drilling at the Pinnacles Mine. Results include extension drilling in the Junction and Rope Shaft areas, delivering intercepts up to 4.4m at 1,013g/t AgEq from 39.1m.
In addition, BHM continues to define a broad, shallow gold and copper mineralisation overprinting the Ag-Pb-Zn system, highlighted by 7.6m at 1.5g/t Au & 0.2% Cu from 62.4m.
📌 Investor Highlights:
- ~6,000m of Pinnacles drilled core (BHM & historical drilling) being processed with assays pending, targeted for sequential ASX release over the next 3 to 4 months
- Assays received from a further 7 holes, including extensions to the silver-lead rich zone of Junction & Rope Shaft areas and in zinc rich zone of Consols South
- Exceptional shallow metal equivalent intercepts along strike from recently reported high grade results, as highlighted below (see Figures 1-4):
- 4.4m @ 36.5% ZnEq, 1,013g/t AgEq (763g/t Ag, 9.4% Pb, 1.2% Zn, 0.2g/t Au) from 39.1m – BPD0040
- 4.8m @ 19.4% ZnEq, 537g/t AgEq (364g/t Ag, 5.9% Pb, 1.5% Zn, 0.1g/t Au) from 46.5m – BDP0042
- 4.9m @ 19.2% ZnEq, 532g/t AgEq (328g/t Ag, 6.1% Pb, 2.5% Zn, 0.1g/t Au) from 29.8m – BPD0043
