VANCOUVER, BC, May 24, 2023
/CNW/ - Deep-South Resources Inc. ("Deep-South" or the
Company) (TSXV: DSM) announces the first results from the soil
sampling program on the Luanshya West project in Zambia.
Pierre Léveillé, President & CEO of
Deep-South states: "These preliminary results are very
encouraging as current and past mines on the Copperbelt have held
thresholds in the range of 50ppm to 150ppm, averaging 80ppm copper
and peak values in the range of 100ppm to 450ppm copper. We look
forward to receiving the remaing assays pretty soon and to plan
further work on the project. "
Highlights:
- Multiple soil anomalies were defined with peak values of 332ppm
copper and 282ppm cobalt in leached soil regimes.
- The five highest soil samples assay results for copper were
determined to be: 332ppm, 286ppm, 272ppm, 253ppm and 247ppm.
- The five highest soil samples assay results for cobalt were
determined to be: 282ppm, 179ppm, 174ppm and 159ppm, 151ppm.
- Results compare favourably with soil anomalies in the vicinity
of various ore zones at current and past producing copper mines in
Zambia.
- 841 samples were collected on the main grid of 500m x 100m.
- 1,270 samples were collected on 3 infil grids of 100m x 100m.
- Assay results from SGS received on 647 samples. 1,333 samples
assay results are forthcoming.
- Upon reception of the full set of results from SGS, the sample
results will be analyzed in detail to identify and delineate the
anomalies.
- Based on these initial results additional soil sampling on
tighter grids is likely after reception of all the results
including the Luanshya west main grid and the additional 3 infill
grids.
- Deep-South's geological team is currently proceeding with plans
for a second phase of the soil sampling program.
The Luanshya West exploration licence 23246-HQ-LEL is situated
in the heart of the Zambian Copperbelt some 29km west of the
Luanshya Copper Cobalt mine. The licence area covers 5,423.26
hectares (54.24 Sq. Km).
