Aben Announces Analytical Results from First-Pass Drilling at the South Boundary Zone at the Forrest Kerr Project in BC’s Golden Triangle
Aben Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: ABN) (OTCQB: ABNAF) (Frankfurt: E2L2) (the “Company”) provides further analytical results from the 2018 exploration drill program at the Forrest Kerr Property. Three holes totalling 1,153 meters have been completed in the newly discovered South Boundary Zone 1.5 km south of the strong precious metal mineralization delineated at the North Boundary Zone. These holes represent the first ever drill holes collared in this target area and have intersected numerous broad horizons of mineralized veins containing abundant pyrite and variable amounts of chalcopyrite. Discovery hole FK18-21 intersected 379.2 meters of 0.10 grams/tonne (g/t) Au starting at a depth of 4.8m including 89.0m of 0.24 g/t Au and 9.0m of 0.95 g/t Au. Gold values in all three holes range from trace amounts to greater than 5 g/t in the 1- or 2-meter sample intervals (silver values range from trace to 8.7 g/t and copper values range from trace to 9500 ppm). Aben management is extremely encouraged that this first-pass drilling has intercepted broad zones of pervasive alteration (silica-sericite-pyrite-chlorite-potassic) with abundant quartz-sulfide veins and mineralized breccia zones indicating a strong and widespread mineralizing event.
