Cornish Metals Inc said it had found multiple zones of tin, zinc, silver with minor copper mineralisation in the underexplored area of Trenares at the United Downs project, Cornwall.
TRENARES
The Canadian company is focused on South Crofty underground tin project through to delivery of a feasibility study, as well as exploring its additional mineral rights in the county.
Trenares lies some 300m south of the historic United Mines.
PROGRAMME
The company completed nine diamond drill holes on three drill sections, for a total 2,683.55m, to test the Trenares lode target within the United Downs project.
Cornish Metals added it intersected multiple zones of tin, zinc, silver with minor copper mineralisation on each drill section.
RESULTS
Results include:
TN21_002 2.42m grading 2.88% tin and 1.43% zinc
TN21_002 3.34m grading 2.48% zinc and 22 g/t silver
TN21_002 0.90m grading 10.30% zinc and 18 g/t silver

COMPELLING
“The Trenares target drill programme has been successful in demonstrating the presence of multiple zones of mineralisation in an area of the United Downs project that is underexplored, has never been mined and represents a compelling exploration target,” said chief executive Richard Williams.
“The presence of high-grade tin and zinc warrants further follow-up exploration.
“Once we are in receipt of all remaining drill programme assays, we can evaluate the priority targets for follow up work.”
