Montezuma Mining intersects High-Grade Gold Trend at Jatz

THE DRILL SERGEANT: Montezuma Mining Company (ASX: MZM) has completed deep drill testing of the priority Jatz target at the company’s 100 per cent-owned Yamarna project in Western Australia.

A total of thirty holes for 3,438 metres were drilled on nominally 200m spaced lines to test the prospective corridor beneath widespread strong gold anomalism hosted in Archean greenstone basement lithologies.

According to Montezuma, the drilling identified two high-grade gold bearing structures within the corridor, one intersected by a single drill hole, the second showing semi continuous gold mineralisation along a strike of approximately 1km, open to the north.

Assays were returned from the two zones of up to 17.5 grams per tonnes gold and 15.5g/t gold respectively.

“Planning is now underway for follow up drilling to test the strike continuity of these zones and for the potential for structural positions where the mineralisation may occur over thicker widths,” Montezuma Mining said in its ASX announcement.
