Brixton Metals (BBB) has released additional assay results from its maiden drill program at the Thorn Project.

Today’s results, which come from the Trapper gold target, represent six of 15 shallow drill holes. The Trapper target is one of 14 copper-gold-silver targets that have been identified on the Thorn Project in British Columbia.

The Trapper area represents a new gold target with significant scale potential. Drilling highlights include 1.1 g/t gold over 84 metres within a broader zone of 146 metres containing 0.74 g/t gold.

Gary R. Thompson, chairman and CEO of Brixton Metals, commented on the results.

“We believe we are in the early stages of a significant and exciting new gold discovery at Trapper,” he said.

“We are eager to expand the area of known mineralization through further drilling and are currently integrating geochemistry, geological-structural mapping, and geophysics to advance our targeting in the meantime.”

Results from the remaining holes will be released once all assays are complete.

“Encouragingly, we are also seeing well-mineralized zones within the volcanic country rock, featuring visible gold hosted in coarse quartz-calcite-pyrite-sphalerite veins,” said VP of Exploration Christin Anstey. “The variety of mineralization styles, metal assemblages and host rocks have us very excited about the potential of the Trapper target.”

Brixton is a Canadian exploration and development company focused on the advancement of its mining projects toward feasibility.

The company owns four exploration projects: the Thorn copper-gold-silver project, the Atlin Goldfields projects in British Columbia, the Langis-Hudbay silver-cobalt project in Ontario, and the Hog Heaven silver-gold-copper project in NW Montana.

Shares in Brixton Metals (BBB) are steady, trading at $0.17 per share as of 1:19 pm EST.
