KELOWNA,
BC, June 10, 2024 /CNW/ - Cantex Mine
Development Corp. (TSXV: CD) (OTCQB: CTXDF) (the "Company") is
pleased to announce that it has intersected copper mineralization
in its first three holes drilled at its North Rackla project,
Yukon.
Copper Project Drilling
Since drilling first commenced on June 3,
2024 three diamond drill holes have now been completed at
the Copper Project on the western side of the Company's North
Rackla property. Previous drilling on this project
intersected 2.5 metres of 3.93% copper including 1 metre of 7.32%
copper (see news release of April 13,
2023).
Hole YKDD24-287 was drilled at a -45 degree dip and 13 degree
azimuth. It intersected 1.8 metres of an estimated 8%
chalcopyrite contained within a quartz carbonate breccia from 7.1
metres depth. Hole YKDD24-288 was drilled from the same pad
at a -45 degree dip at an azimuth of 35 degrees. This hole
intersected 17 metres of an estimated 2% chalcopyrite from 9.5
metres depth. Hole YKDD24-289 intersected 5.05 metres of an
estimated 2% chalcopyrite from 3.3 metres depth. The hole was
from the same pad, at a dip of -45 degrees and an azimuth of 305
degrees.
Following logging the mineralized portions of the holes are
split. One half of the split core is in the process of being
submitted to laboratories for sample preparation and analysis for
copper, gold and associated elements. Results will be
reported as soon as available.
