Brixton Metals Corporation (BBB) has found copper-gold mineralization on its Thorn Project in British Columbia.

The mineralization was discovered from surface sampling on the Metla, Trapper, and Val targets.

At the Metla Target, rock grab samples yielded an average of over 1.00 per cent copper, with 25 samples yielding greater than 5.00 per cent copper. Visible gold was observed in the area’s surface grab samples, with 14 rock grab samples yielding greater than 10 grams of gold per tonne and seven samples yielding greater than 25 grams of gold per tonne.

Highlights at the other targets included rock grab sample D131593, which assayed 152 grams of gold per tonne and 187.0 grams of silver per tonne at Trapper, as well as rock grab sample D200353, which assayed 50 per cent copper and 674 grams of silver per tonne at Val.
