Announcement summary: | Vancouver, British Columbia (May 24, 2022) – Benjamin Hill Mining Corp. (CSE: BNN; OTC Pink: BNNHF) (“BHM” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce initial results from its inaugural diamond drilling program on its flagship Sonora Gold Project near Benjamin Hill, Sonora, Mexico. This drill program marks the first time the project has been drilled using modern systematic exploration methods. A total of 34 drill holes covering 5800 m were completed across this large property to drill test seven prospective targets. Assays have been received for the first 20 drill holes with 14 drill holes still pending. The drill campaign was kicked off in the Sonora Copper Zone located at the southern end of the property and targeted a mineralized epithermal vein system. The Sonora Copper Zone quartz breccia vein system consists of two of parallel vein structures with a mapped surface length approaching 850 m (see Figure 1 below). The veins are composed of quartz with barite, sulfides and primary oxides hosted in granites and volcano-sedimentary rocks. The Sonora Copper Zone hosts impressive historical artisanal adits that exploited copper mineralized quartz rich breccia veins to considerable and yet unknown depths from the surface. The project has known epithermal mineralization at surface and potential for porphyry mineralization at depth. |
