FURTHER HIGH GRADE MOLYHIL BULK SAMPLE ASSAY RESULTS
.
.
The Board of Thor Mining Plc (“Thor”) (AIM, ASX: THR) is pleased to announce further
positive assay results from the second metallurgical bulk sample drill hole at the
company’s wholly owned Molyhil tungsten molybdenum deposit, in the Northern
Territory of Australia.
.
The second of two PQ (85mm) diamond drill holes drilled down plunge of the Molyhil
Yacht Club lode to obtain material for production of tungsten and molybdenum
concentrate samples has now been assayed.
.
Highlights include;
• 3.5m @ 1.32%WO3 from 9.5m
• 10m @ 0.32% Cu from 44m
• 10m @ 1.32%WO3 from 53m
• 5m @ 1.74%WO3 from 76m including 2m @ 0.81%Mo from 78m and;
• 7m @ 1.58%WO3 from 88m including 4m @ 0.44%Mo from 88m
.
The holes were designed specifically for production of concentrate samples and will not contribute to the mineral resource estimate.
.
Following the results, Thor has commissioned RPM Global to upgrade the Molyhil Mineral Resource Estimate to include copper. Mick Billing, Executive Chairman, commented:“It is very rewarding to have more high tenor bulk sample assay results at Molyhil and to have confirmation of extensive high-grade scheelite and molybdenum mineralisation.”
.
“The continued confirmation of copper mineralisation at potentially economic levels is also very pleasing. Thor has commissioned a review of the resource estimate for Molyhil to include this, however until that work is complete, we can ascribe no additional value for any potential copper at this time.”
.
“Since acquiring the Bonya properties, ongoing studies on the combined Molyhil-Bonya
project have identified the copper potential of Bonya and its potential suitability for
processing at Molyhil (news releases 26 November 2018 and 7 May 2019). This has led to the reappraisal of the economic potential for copper at Molyhil.“
