Max Porterfield, President and CEO, stated, "Drill results outlined today continue to deliver some of the widest intervals and highest copper grades intersected at the Rainbow Deposit to date. We are incredibly pleased with the success of our step out drill holes to date, which has expanded the Rainbow Deposit in multiple areas."
Drill hole PBM-176 was a significant step-out that expanded both the Orange and Yellow zones. PBM-176 intersected the Yellow zone and returned 3.00m of
JJ O'Donnell, Callinex Exploration Manager, stated, "Additional drilling into the Rainbow horizons has further defined the three massive sulphide lenses with widths and grades similar to previous neighbor holes, suggesting good correlation within the mineralized horizons."
The Company has now completed the necessary drilling to delineate Rainbow within the first 800m of surface in anticipation of publishing a maiden resource estimate. Callinex completed 33 holes (including 6 wedges) encompassing 19,840m of drilling at the Rainbow deposit as part of the fully funded drilling campaign. Since the Company discovered the Rainbow Deposit in August 2020, the Company has drilled 81 holes (including 19 wedges) for a total of 42,000m into the deposit area. Callinex has 12 delineation drill holes pending at the assay lab encompassing 6,300m of drilling into the Rainbow deposit area.
Callinex is currently completing the final exploration hole of the current exploration campaign to test Target Area Odin, which is located in between the Rainbow and the newly discovered Alchemist deposits (See news release Dated September 7, 2022). The Company has completed 8,500m of exploration drilling as part of the broader 2022 drilling campaign and has only announced 3,920m encompassing 4 drill holes to date.
