Greece
Importantly, it was reported that there are no drill holes which terminate the zinc mineralisation at depth, or towards the north and south. Our aim is to continue chasing the zinc both at depth and to the north in our target to achieve a minimum of 400,000 tonnes of zinc equivalent metal.
On 4 September 2024, Rockfire announced a JORC Mineral Resource upgrade of 500% at the Molaoi zinc/silver/lead deposit in Greece. This new resource has surpassed all expectations and places Molaoi within the top 20 undeveloped zinc resources globally in terms of tonnage, grade and zinc equivalent metal content. The Inferred JORC Resource estimation for Molaoi is: 15.0 million tonnes @ 7.26 % Zn, 1.75 % Pb and 39.5 g/t Ag (9.96 % zinc equivalent). Molaoi contains 1,090,000 tonnes of zinc, 260,000 tonnes of lead, and 19.1 million ounces of silver. Molaoi also contains one of the world's geologically rare critical metals, germanium. A preliminary germanium quantity, which does not comply with the requirements of the JORC Code has been calculated at: 4.8 million tonnes @ 21.9 g/t Ge (105,700 kilograms germanium).
