Bell Copper Corporation has provided an update from the Perseverance porphyry copper project, located in northwestern Arizona, USA. The Perseverance project is under a Joint Venture with Cordoba Minerals Corp.
Highlights
Drill hole K-20, a 2.1 km step-out from prior deep drilling at Perseverance, encountered the best mineralization to date indicating proximity to the targeted 2 km by 3 km Laramide porphyry buried beneath 200m to 400m of basin fill.More than 700 meters of anomalous copper minerals were intercepted, comprising Chalcopyrite, Bornite, and Chalcocite, suggesting the porphyry target is proximal.Quartz veins encountered in the lower part of K-20 are aligned 20 to 45 degrees to core axis. Approaches to properly orient these "guide veins", using either a downhole acoustic televiewer or downhole induced polarization, are currently being evaluated prior to wedging and directionally advancing K-20.High Power Exploration Inc. will deploy their proprietary Typhoon™ induced polarization technology to complete the mapping of shallow sulphide distribution left wide open by the prior optionee on the project, and to probe deeply beneath previous geophysical surveys and even beneath previous drillholes for overlooked copper porphyry targets.
K-20 Diamond Drill Hole
K-20 is the first hole drilled under the Perseverance Joint Venture Agreement between Cordoba and Bell Copper. The hole was pre-collared to a depth of approximately 300 metres before core drilling commenced in September 2018. The hole is being drilled vertically and is currently at a depth of approximately 1045 meters.
Initial observations of mineralization and geological structures encountered by drill hole K-20 are encouraging and suggest close proximity to a potential Laramide copper porphyry deposit. Beginning at a depth of approximately 300 metres K-20 passed through a long interval of largely propylitic alteration, epidote-chlorite with disseminated pyrite and minor chalcopyrite and bornite.
At approximately 1,030 metres deep, the drill core became more potassically altered with disseminated pyrite, chalcopyrite on a 1:1 ratio, with more frequent veins and quartz-molybdenite stringers. This was observed with an occurrence of hydrothermal magnetite filling fractures and veins and secondary biotite alteration. The appearance of potassic alteration with more frequent veins and quartz stringers suggests that K-20 has approached the higher temperature region of the porphyry system. Full assays are pending.
