Metallic Minerals Update – Keno Silver

Canada gold, junior mining companies

Greg Johnson, Metallic Minerals’ Chairman & CEO stated, “We are excited about the potential that is being highlighted by our ongoing exploration on the Keno Silver Project, where we have been able to move quickly from land acquisitions and target identification to delivering confirmatory drill results from these under-explored areas of the prolific Keno Hill Silver District. Results to date have confirmed the existence of high-grade silver in Keno-type structures beginning at surface and that those systems are open at depth and along strike, in stratigraphic settings that are comparable with some of the largest deposits in the district. Our plans for 2018 are to undertake a robust drill-focused program, following and expanding upon the same systematic exploration methodology as 2017.” read more

Aben Intersects Mineralization Early in Drill Program at Forrest Kerr Project in BC’s Golden Triangle

Aben Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:ABN) (OTCQB:ABNAF) (Frankfurt:E2L2) (the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following progress update on its 2018 exploration and drilling program at its 23,000-hectare Forrest Kerr Gold Property located in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle region. The first five holes drilled at the high grade North Boundary Zone have encountered mineralization and the drill core has been sent to the assay labs and final geochemical assays are pending. These holes have transected rock that has been strongly altered with quartz-sericite-pyrite with variable chlorite and strong calcite and hematite throughout. The pervasive nature of the alteration is evidence toward the strength of the hydrothermal system that operated through time in this part of the Property. Several fault and shear zones have been encountered in each hole, which have been interpreted and observed as the likely host to Au-Ag-Cu mineralization. This area of the Forrest Kerr Property hosts gold-silver-copper in rock and soil anomalies that span in excess of 2 km by 4 km and remain under-explored. read more
