Tertiary Minerals PLC - mineral exploration and development in the US state of Nevada and in northern Europe - 31 rock chip samples taken from exposed mineralisation in field checking of the North Ruth, Western Line and Western Splay silver-gold soil anomalies in the Pyramid gold-silver project in Nevada, the US.
Highest value individual sample from the field work contains 6.29 grams per tonne of gold and 158 grams per tonne of silver from the Western line anomaly. Field evidence suggests the anomaly may extend along strike to the southeast over a total of 1,700 metres.
Looking ahead, there will be follow up trenching and mapping to better expose the mineralisation in the North Ruth and Western line anomalies.
"I am pleased to be reporting solid progress at the Pyramid project with widespread gold and silver mineralisation now being confirmed at surface within a number of long and persistent soil anomalies. Where exposed and sampled to date, the mineralisation comprises narrow veins within broader zones of volcanic breccia suggesting potential for both high grade vein and lower grade bulk tonnage targets," notes Executive Chair Patrick Cheetham.
