Cornish Metals Reports High Grade Copper, Tin and Zinc Mineralisation from Drilling at the Mount Wellington and United Mines Targets, United Downs Project
Cornish Metals Inc. (TSX.V / AIM: CUSN (“Cornish Metals” or the “Company”), a dual-listed company focused on advancing the South Crofty high-grade, underground tin project through to delivery of a Feasibility Study, as well as exploring its additional mineral rights, all located in Cornwall, South West England, is pleased to report the remaining assay results from the Phase 1 drill programme at United Downs. This release includes results from the Mount Wellington and United Mines Targets within the United Downs project, located eight kilometres east of South Crofty.
Highlights
- All four of the remaining drill holes intersected multiple mineralised zones (Table 1 below).
- Two drill holes (MW22_001 and MW22_002), totaling 1,334.00 metres (‘m’), were completed at the Mount Wellington Target, testing the down dip extensions of both Mount Wellington Mine (tin – zinc) and United Mines (copper – tin – zinc – silver) (Figure 2).
- Two drill holes (UD22_01 and UD22_01A), totaling 1010.61m, drilled in the central part of United Downs project, tested the down dip extension of United Mines (Figure 2).
- MW22_001 intersected several high-grade zinc zones, including;
- 2.05m grading 6.05% zinc from 87.03m;
- 4.25m grading 5.51% zinc from 249.40m, and;
- 0.80m grading 6.48% zinc from 362.53m.
- MW22_002 (Figure 4) intersected several polymetallic zones, including;
- 1.49m grading 6.17% copper, and 67g/t silver from 326.00m;
- 4.89m grading 2.21% copper, and 19g/t silver from 548.36m;
- 1.66m grading 1.09% tin from 560.61m, and;
- 2.42m grading 3.70% tin, and 9.09% zinc from 649.41m.
- The high-grade zinc intersections in MW22_001 require further work to determine continuity along strike and to depth to establish the Mineral Resource potential.
- High grade tin intersects were encountered in UD22_01 and UD22_01A, confirming a potential transition from high grade copper to high grade tin at depth, similar to the mineralisation transition seen at South Crofty Mine (Figure 5).
- High-grade copper and tin intersections beneath United Mines have now been observed over a strike length of approximately 1,350m and the zone is open along strike and to depth (Figure 6).
- The high-grade tin intersects in MW22_002, GWDD_002 (see News Release dated November 17, 2020), UD21_011A (see News Release dated December 6, 2021), UD22_001, UD22_001A, and MW22_002 support management’s belief that tin grades increase with depth, similar to the mineralisation transition seen at South Crofty.

Richard Williams, CEO of the Company, stated
“The Phase 1 drill programme at United Downs has been successful on a number of fronts – assay results, safety, community support and drill contractor performance.
“Results from the United Downs drill programme confirm the potential to develop a Mineral Resource, especially the down dip section of the United Mine where we encountered high-grade copper, tin, and silver.
“The Company is now considering the next steps for United Downs.”
