Hawk Intersects Near Surface Copper in Cactus Corridor, Utah
- Coarse visible copper mineralisation intersected near surface in two Cactus Corridor drill holes
- DD26CT003 spot pXRF assays range from 4.7-37.3% copper between 18.7m and 76.8m down hole
- DD26CT004 spot pXRF assays range from 7.3-35.2% copper between 30.2 and 90.8m down hole
Hawk Resources Limited (ASX: HWK) is pleased to announce the intersection of near surface strong copper mineralisation in the Cactus corridor at its Cactus copper-gold project in Utah, USA. Spot portable XRF (pXRF) readings on drill core reached grades of 37.3% copper at 62.8m down hole DD26CT003 and 35.2% copper at 39.0m down hole DD26CT004. The copper mineralisation occurs as veins, coarse blebs, veinlets and fracture fill within brecciated and altered Cactus granodiorite intrusive. The ongoing drilling along the corridor will enable Hawk to delineate the mineralised breccia bodies from surface to a depth of 50m which will assist in designing future deeper drilling and in modelling of the deposits. Historical shallow drill hole intersections along the Comet-Cactus zone within the Cactus Corridor include 10.7m @ 3.6% Cu within 38.1m @ 1.42% Cu from surface, 12.2m @ 2.8% Cu within 25.9m @ 1.62% Cu from 42.7m down hole, and 25.9m @ 1.53 g/t Au from surface. The aim of Hawk's drilling along the Cactus Corridor is to delineate mineralisation in the zone from surface to a depth of approximately 50m.
