 Aztec Minerals Corp. (AZT) has received the final results for the oriented core portion of its 2021-2022 drilling program at the Cervantes project.

The Cervantes project is located in Sonora, Mexico.

Highlights:

  • The 2021-2022 Cervantes drilling program consisted of reverse circulation (RC) and oriented core (diamond drilling) phases totalling 7,837.5 meters in 37 drill holes on the California Zone, California Norte, Jasper and Purisima Este targets
  • The 2021-2022 drilling program intercepted strong mineralization at the California Zone, California Norte and Jasper targets and successfully expanded them
  • The evaluation of the multi-element ICP results resulted in the identification of Au pathfinder elements, specifically: Cu, As, Ag, Bi, and W.
  • The multi-element ICP values support the exploration model of the California zone being at the highest portion of a porphyry system, where an overlying high sulfidation zone has been eroded away.

The oriented core program of the 2021-2022 Cervantes Project drilling consisted of 2,588.5 meters in 11 oriented core drill holes, testing 3 targets (California, Jasper, California Norte). 

Combined with the RC drilling portion of the program, the total amount drilled at the Cervantes project in 2021-2022 was 7,837.5 meters in 37 drill holes, testing four target areas.

CEO Simon Dyakowski sat down with Daniella Atkinson to discuss the results.

Aztec is a mineral exploration company focused on two emerging discoveries in North America. The Cervantes project is an emerging porphyry gold-copper discovery in Sonora, Mexico. 

Aztec Minerals Corp. (AZT) opened trading at C$0.305.
