“We are very bullish on specific areas in the Cobequid Highlands and the potential for a major Cobalt and/or base metals discovery. We have recently completed drilling on our Castlereagh prospect in Bass River (Assays Pending Mid-Late July) and are completing a geophysical program over the recently acquired Trident Prospect where we will test later this summer a known Iron deposit, identified by Chilean Metals President Mick Sharry. Trident was the site of six core holes and a 1000 tonne bulk sample which were completed in the late 80’s. The bulk sample had noted interesting Cobalt results by the department of Natural Resources. We have submitted samples from that historic drill core for assay and will report on those when results are received. The Economy East project is interpreted to consist of very similar geology to Trident and as such is considered prospective for IOCG-Cobalt style mineralisation.
We will conduct a detailed Airborne Mag and Radiometrics survey on the project. moving as quickly as possible to obtain land access agreements, cut lines and conduct an IP survey. Following that drill targets will be defined by integrating all available data and a drill program will be proposed.
This is a summer of tremendous activity for Chilean as we rapidly have already identified and continue to pursue what we feel are very viable Cobalt and base metal targets in the Cobequid Highlands. We are excited to see what Mother Earth has in store for us as we explore this area.” commented CMX CEO Terry Lynch
