Anglesey Mining #AYM – Further drilling results confirm scale of Northern Copper Zone at Parys Mountain

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), is pleased to announce that the assay results have been received for the recently completed drill hole NCZ002. Drill hole NCZ002 was the second hole to be completed from the infill drilling program of the Northern Copper Zone (NCZ) and Garth Daniel Zone (GDZ) at the Company’s Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au VMS project on the Isle of Anglesey in North West Wales.

Consistent with historical drilling, assays confirm that NCZ002 intersected a significant zone of mineralisation across the NCZ with 114m @ 1.0% CuEq (including internal dilution). Within the broad mineralised envelope, there are numerous higher-grade zones. These demonstrate good continuity with previous drilling results and further support the integrity of the geological model and drill targeting.

Key intersections within the broad zone of mineralisation are detailed below:

Northern Copper Zone – Hole NCZ002

  • 0m @ 0.9% Cu, 0.09% Zn, 0.1% Pb, 4.2g/t Ag and 0.17g/t Au (1.0% CuEq) from a depth of 426m, including:
  • 3m @ 2.6% Cu, 3.2g/t Ag and 0.86g/t Au (2.8% CuEq) from 426.0m
  • 1m @ 0.9% Cu, 4.6g/t Ag and 0.11g/t Au (1.0% CuEq) from 448.3m, including:
  • 4m @ 1.9% Cu, 0.26% Pb, 0.22% Zn, 13.2g/t Ag and 0.22g/t Au (2.1% CuEq)
  • 0m @ 0.6% Cu, 3.1% Pb, 1.9% Zn, 47.9g/t Ag and 0.09g/t Au (2.0% CuEq / 7.1% ZnEq) from 483.0m
  • 5m @ 2.2% Cu, 1.1% Pb, 0.3% Zn, 47.3g/t Ag and 0.14g/t Au (2.7% CuEq / 7.5% ZnEq) from 484.5m
  • 4m @ 1.0% Cu, 0.16% Pb, 0.26% Zn, 4.4g/t Ag and 0.16g/t Au (1.1% CuEq / 3.1% ZnEq) from 486.6m
  • 5m @ 1.4% Cu, 3.5g/t Ag and 0.44g/t Au (1.6% CuEq) from 508.5m, including:
    • 0m @ 3.0% Cu, 6.3g/t Ag and 1.20g/t Au (3.4% CuEq) from 515m

The Company is targeting a resource update on the NCZ, with the aim of converting a significant portion of the Inferred Resource into the higher confidence Indicated category. Based on the Joint Ore Reserve Committee (JORC) guidelines, only Indicated and Measured category Mineral Resources can be converted into Ore Reserves.

Andrew King, Interim Chairman of Anglesey Mining, commented: “Once again, we are very excited to see the Parys Mountain project delivering some very strong drilling results. It is worth reminding investors that Parys Mountain is demonstrably the largest and most advanced copper project in the UK with substantial resource upside still evident. In addition, the project is favourably located on a previously permitted, brownfield development site with significant existing infrastructure already in place.“

“Both NCZ001 and NCZ002 have delivered some exceptional high-grade copper intersections, including 11m at 3.4% CuEq, 22m at 3.2% CuEq, 6.3m at 2.8% CuEq and 9.4m at 2.1% CuEq, within broad thicknesses of mineralisation up to 100m wide. The results continue to support our view that the Northern Copper Zone provides significant upside for the Parys Mountain project, over and above the 5 million tonne contribution included within the 2021 Preliminary Economic Assessment.

“The third drill hole, NCZ003, is currently at a depth of around 450 metres. The geological and drill targeting model anticipated the Northern Copper Zone to commence at a downhole depth of around 400 metres. Once again, the model has been validated by these latest results from NCZ002 and we look forward to providing a further update once drilling of NCZ003 is complete.”

Northern Copper Zone – Cross Section 4600mE

Section 4600mE below highlights the position of the recently completed drill hole NCZ002 and the up-dip position of NCZ003, which is currently being drilled.

The interpreted outline of the Northern Copper Zone in the cross-section does not imply an economic outcome, it simply highlights where sulphides have been identified within the Northern Shales. A significant number of the drill holes within this zone have returned consistent zones of higher-grade material, which is a key target of the current program. The recognition of a shear zone along the hanging wall of the Northern Copper Zone could imply a structural emplacement, or thickening of the sequence within the mine environment and will greatly assist with future targeting and drilling.

Importantly, every hole drilled into the interpreted position of the Northern Copper Zone has intersected broad zones of sulphides; and the current drilling is demonstrating the predictability of the mineralised zone from the detailed geological model that has been constructed and refined over several years.

The current drill hole, NCZ003, is targeting the up-dip area above historical hole H17A and could potentially provide additional information relating to the key lithology Rhyolite B, which included an intersection of 9.2m @ 2.7% CuEq in drill hole A15.

Northern Copper Zone – Cross Section 4800mE 

Section 4800mE below highlights the position of drill hole NCZ001.

As per section 4600mE, this section also highlights the continuity of sulphide mineralisation across the Northern Copper Zone. With the completion of NCZ001, the Company has gained a greater understanding of the influence from Rhyolite B on the higher-grade zones of mineralisation.

Section 4800mE also highlights the potential related to the Central Zone with significant intersections from historical 1970’s drilling, including 3.8m @ 8,6% Cu and 6.7m @ 2.4% Cu. The Company believes potential exists for these intersections to link to the 22m @ 3.2 % CuEq (including 4.0m @ 5.2% Cu) in NCZ001.

Anglesey Mining #AYM – Northern Copper Zone Drilling Update – Broad Zone of Sulphides Intersected in Hole NCZ002

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), is pleased to provide an update on the Northern Copper Zone (‘NCZ’) Mineral Resource delineation drilling program at the Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au VMS project on the Isle of Anglesey in NW Wales.

The 2023/2024 exploration drilling campaign has been designed to verify the reliability of historical drill holes and infill gaps in the drilling that will be used to update the Parys Mountain Mineral Resource Estimate.

Drill hole NCZ002 was recently completed with a 107m (apparent thickness) zone of visible sulphides identified between 413m – 520m downhole.  The hole was designed as an infill hole between two pierce points from the previous drilling programme undertaken at the site in the 1970s that intersected broad zones of mineralisation – 91m grading 0.9% copper equivalent (‘CuEq’) and 75m grading 0.8% CuEq – both of which reported higher grade zones including 43m grading 1.2% CuEq and 26m grading 1.3% CuEq.

Samples from NCZ002 were dispatched to the ALS laboratory in Ireland on 16th February and the results are expected within a few weeks. Based on the encouraging intersection of visible sulphides and the promising assay results from NCZ001 (as detailed in the announcement released by the Company on 19th January 2024), it is anticipated that the assay results will confirm the continuity of the Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au mineralisation at Parys Mountain.  Drilling of the third drill hole in this latest programme, NCZ003, has commenced with 200m drilled to date.

Key takeaways from the drilling results so far include:

–          Further verification of the existing Parys Mountain geological model.

–          Significant high-grade widths of polymetallic mineralisation identified along the contact with the Garth Daniel Zone.

–          Intersect of 22m grading 3.2% CuEq1 recently reported from NCZ001 represents a significant potential upside to the current resource estimate.

Andrew King, Interim Chairman of Anglesey Mining plc, commented: “On behalf of Anglesey management and the field team, I am delighted to report that ongoing drilling of the Northern Copper Zone is confirming that Parys Mountain has a significant zone of copper dominant mineralisation within an area 600 to 700 metres along strike and 300 to 400m downdip. Widths of mineralisation appear to be averaging over 20 metres in this zone with copper equivalent grades of between 1.0 – 1.3%.”

“The positive verification and infill drilling of the Northern Copper Zone completed so far is a key element to advancing the project through future development studies and ultimately providing sufficient data on which to base a decision to mine. Current management has always believed the Northern Copper Zone to be much more significant than the current resource numbers implied, and the first two drill holes of this program are encouraging in supporting that view.”

“We look forward to reporting back with the assay results from NCZ002 and the drilling results of NCZ003 in due course, along with further detail on the potential upside to the current Parys Mountain resource estimate.”

Anglesey Mining #AYM – Parys Mountain drilling returns strong assays including 22.0m at 3.7% CuEq

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), is pleased to announce that the assay results have been received from the recently completed drill hole NCZ001. Drill hole NCZ001 is the first hole from the infill drilling program of the Northern Copper and Garth Daniel Zones at the Company’s Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au VMS project on the Isle of Anglesey in north-west Wales.

Drill hole NCZ001 was designed to provide a repeat of the historical drill hole H34, drilled in the early 1970’s, which intersected three mineralised zones that bulked out to 146 metres at 1.2% copper equivalent (CuEq). Due to the deviation of NCZ001, the intersection encountered is estimated to be approximately 75 metres up-dip from the H34 intersection and provides a valuable infill pierce point.

Garth Daniel Zone – Hole NCZ001

    • 22.0m @ 2.3% Cu, 2.8% Zn, 1.3% Pb, 5.0g/t Ag and 0.03g/t Au (3.7% CuEq / 9.2% ZnEq) from a depth of 559m, including
      • 4.0m @ 5.2% Cu, 5.0g/t Ag and 0.03g/t Au (4.9% CuEq) from 569m; and,
      • 6.0m @ 2.5% Cu, 9.9% Zn, 4.7% Pb, 10g/t Ag and 0.1g/t Au (6.1% CuEq / 17.4% ZnEq) from 575m

Northern Copper Zone – Hole NCZ001

Significant intersections include:

    • 11.0m @ 0.6% Cu, 1.4% Zn, 0.5% Pb, 9.0g/t Ag and 0.4g/t Au (1.3% CuEq / 3.6% ZnEq) from a depth of 503m including
      • 4.0m at 1.1% Cu, 2.7% Zn, 1.0% Pb, 16g/t Ag and 0.7g/t Au (2.4% CuEq / 6.9% ZnEq) from 510m
    • 63.0m @ 0.6% Cu, 0.06% Zn, 0.03% Pb, 3g/t Ag and 0.2g/t Au (0.7% CuEq) from a depth of 362m including
      •  16.0m @ 0.9% Cu, 0.05% Zn, 0.02% Pb, 3g/t Ag and 0.2g/t Au (1.0% CuEq) from 382m
      • 7.0m @ 1.3% Cu, 0.11% Zn, 0.05% Pb, 5.5g/t Ag and 0.2g/t Au (1.3% CuEq) from 404m
    • 13.0m @ 0.5% Cu, 0.05% Zn, 0.01% Pb, 2g/t Ag and 0.1g/t Au (0.5% CuEq) from a depth of 455m

***CuEq and ZnEq grades are based on recovery factors and commodity prices as detailed on page 9 of this release***

Andrew King, Interim Chairman of Anglesey Mining, commented: “We are very encouraged by the broad widths encountered across both the Garth Daniel and Northern Copper Zones in NCZ001. In particular, we are excited to see the significant intersection within the Garth Daniel Zone. The 22-metre intersection grading 3.7% copper equivalent we believe continues to demonstrate the prospectivity of the Parys Mountain mineralised system.”

“Infill drilling of these mineralised zones will play a crucial role in the development studies for Parys Mountain. The primary target for this program is to provide additional pierce points to enable the current Inferred resources to be upgraded to the Indicated category. The second drill hole, NCZ002, is currently at a depth of around 360 metres with the Northern Copper Zone target estimated to commence at a downhole depth of around 420 metres”.

  • The project’s clean tech metal profile
  • Future Opportunities and Peer Group comparisons
  • Stakes held in Grangesberg Iron Ore Project and Labrador Iron Mines
  • Near term milestones and next steps

 

Anglesey Mining #AYM – Developing the Parys Mountain Project in 2024

On January 2nd, we release an exclusive, full length interview with Anglesey Mining director Jo Battershill Ahead of this, a sneak preview… Following the analyst site visit in December & Northern #Copper Zone drilling updates, why are the #ParysMountain PEA numbers now considered ‘unusually conservative’

Anglesey Mining #AYM – Half yearly report for the six months to 30 September 2023

Chairman’s Statement and Management Report

During the reporting period significant advances were made at the company’s key asset, Parys Mountain, with the following developments:

  • Submission of the Pre-Application Inquiry to the North Wales Mineral Planning Authority and hosting an on-site hearing for over 20 statutory consultee groups.
  • Further resource update work for the Morfa Dhu zone (White Rock and Engine Zone) with 93% of the contained resources now being in the Measured and Indicated categories.
  • Commencement of confirmatory metallurgical test work and pre-concentration trade-off with 340kg of Morfa Dhu material sent to Grinding Solutions Limited. Preliminary results were received subsequent to the end of the period with overall recoveries either in-line or better than those received from previous test work.
  • Detailing the planned drilling programme for the Northern Copper Zone, the first drilling of this high potential area since 1972.  Drilling recommenced in October 2023 and the first hole was completed on 11 December at a depth of 635 metres. Visual logging of the core suggests two zones of sulphide mineralisation were intersected with the Northern Copper Zone interpreted to be between 351 – 540 metres and a second zone, potentially the Garth Daniel Zone, between 560 – 586 metres (all downhole depths). As expected, the interpreted Northern Copper Zone has varying levels of sulphide accumulation. The lower zone of sulphide accumulation between 560 – 586 metres demonstrates areas with very high levels of chalcopyrite.  A first batch of samples will be dispatched to the assay laboratory prior to Christmas with results expected in Q1 2024.

Progress at the 49.75% owned Grängesberg iron ore project in Sweden included ongoing discussions with potential development partners and the commencement of planning for the environmental baseline gap analysis with a locally based consulting group, as was recommended in the Pre-Feasibility Study Update.

Board of Directors and Management  

Following the resignation of Jo Battershill and the results of the annual general meeting held in late October 2023 the company is actively engaged in the search for a new Chief Executive Officer and Non-Executive Chairman. We are very pleased that Jo Battershill has agreed to remain on the board as a non-executive director.

Financial

The group had no revenue for the period. The loss for the six months to 30 September 2023 was £604,787 (2022 comparative period £468,656) and expenditure on the mineral properties in the period was £174,748 compared to £320,887 in the same period in 2022. This reduction was primarily due to a cessation in Parys Mountain drilling activity.

Net current assets as at 30 September 2023 were £711,635 compared to £86,781 as at 31 March 2023 with the increase being due to equity private placements in May and July 2023, which raised a total of £1.5 million to fund current operations.

Summary

We continue to firmly believe that Anglesey Mining is in a good position to advance its two key assets at Parys Mountain and Grängesberg over the next year.

At Parys Mountain, drilling of the Northern Copper Zone is expected to generate strong results leading to the conversion of significant areas of the resource from the Inferred category through into the higher confidence Indicated category. From a development study perspective, it is important that the Northern Copper Zone is upgraded to the Indicated resource category as this will allow the incorporation of this zone into any potential mineral reserve. Metallurgical test work will also be required on the Northern Copper Zone to confirm the +93% recoveries demonstrated by the original test work completed in 1969 at the Lakefield Plant in Ontario, Canada.  As suggested in the initial review of the Northern Copper Zone in 2022, we believe that the system could be significantly larger than currently modelled, although this will require additional drilling to test prospective areas.

At Grängesberg, we continue to explore options to advance the project. This initially requires finalising some of the recommendations from the preliminary feasibility study update, including baseline studies for the environmental impact assessment and updating the mining reserve to include some improvements to the proposed mine plan.  We are also exploring a number of options to optimise the ownership structure of Grängesberg Iron AB following our acquisition of an additional 29.8% stake in February 2023.

Outlook

Persistent global uncertainties and difficult financial markets have resulted in challenging conditions in which to operate.  However, we continue to be encouraged by growing investor interest in Anglesey Mining which was demonstrated by the successful raising of £1.5 million during the reporting period.  We believe that investors are finally recognising the progress made over the last two years after a period of relative inactivity.

Over the course of the next year, we look forward to advancing the Parys Mountain project and to optimising the ownership and potential of the Grängesberg iron ore project.

In closing, on behalf of the board of directors, I would like to thank our shareholders for their ongoing support, and to confirm that I remain very confident that the assets held by Anglesey Mining will deliver significant value as they continue to be progressed over the next year.

Anglesey Mining #AYM – Parys Mountain – Northern Copper Zone Drilling Update

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), the UK minerals development company, is pleased to provide an update on the Northern Copper Zone drilling at the Company’s Parys Mountain Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag-Au project, located on the Isle of Anglesey.

Highlights

  • Further to the Company’s previous announcement on 5th December, Anglesey is pleased to confirm that the drilling of first drill hole into the Northern Copper Zone (NCZ001) was completed on 11th December at a depth of 635 metres, broadly in-line with the Company’s expectations.
  • Drill hole NCZ001 was modelled to intersect two zones of potential sulphide mineralisation – the first between 365 – 510 metres, relating to the Northern Copper Zone; and the second between 610 – 620 metres interpreted to be an extension of the high-grade Garth Daniel Zone.
  • Visual logging of NCZ001 suggests two zones of sulphide mineralisation were intersected with the Northern Copper Zone interpreted to be between 351 – 540 metres and a second zone, potentially the Garth Daniel Zone, between 560 – 586 metres (all downhole depths).
  • As expected, the interpreted Northern Copper Zone has varying levels of sulphide accumulation. This was also the case with drilling in the 1970’s with the nearest hole to NCZ001 intersecting two higher grade zones of 22.9m @ 1.20% Cu (1.42% CuEq) and 85.3m @ 1.13% Cu (1.40% CuEq) within a broader zone of 146m @ 0.98% Cu (1.20% CuEq) – no gold assaying was conducted on that drill hole.
  • The lower zone of sulphide accumulation between 560 – 586 metres demonstrates areas with very high levels of chalcopyrite, as highlighted in the picture below.

  • Logging and sampling of NCZ001 has been ongoing since the commencement of drilling and there are c.300 samples now ready for dispatch to the assay lab. The company expects the first batch to be delivered to the assay laboratory before the Christmas break, with results currently expected to be received during Q1 2024.
  • The second drill hole, NCZ002 is expected to be collared this week. Target zones are modelled at 330 – 420 metres (Northern Copper Zone) and 610 – 620 metres (Garth Daniel Zone).

Jo Battershill, Chief Executive of Anglesey Mining, commented: “We are very pleased to have finished the first drill hole into the Northern Copper Zone and get confirmation of both our geological and mineralisation models. The mineralisation from the lower zone, currently interpreted to be the Garth Daniel Zone, is particularly encouraging. As previously disclosed, the samples from this drill hole will be sent off to the assay laboratory as soon as possible and we look forward to potentially receiving the results during Q1 2024.”

“The next hole in the program is designed to step out 200 metres to the southwest and provide infill drilling pierce points within the Northern Copper Zone.  Converting the upper levels of the Northern Copper Zone from the Inferred category to the higher confidence Indicated category is the key objective of this program. Our current planning is to drill two holes from the new-collar position to reduce any down time between holes – changing the angle of the rig should ensure the targeted pierce points are achievable.”

“We were originally planning on completing the downhole Muon survey on NCZ001; however, a zone of broken ground at a depth of 390 metres – interpreted to be large fault – would present a risk to the survey tool and increases the chance of losing the tool down the hole. Subsequently, we will aim to conduct the Muon survey upon completion of the next hole.”
