QuestEx (QEX) has announced drill and prospecting results from the Inel Gold Prospect in B.C.

The first two holes expanded and infilled the footprint of shallow mineralization at Inel’s western margin.

Hole INDDH21-157 yielded 1.06 g/t gold over 1.62 m within 15.30 m of 0.84 g/t gold in strongly sericite-altered rock, leaving mineralization open to depth.

Hole INDDH21-158 intersected 8 m of 0.71 g/t gold and 85.50 m of 0.071 per cent copper and 142 parts per million molybdenum.

Samples from an undrilled portion of Zinc Knob 600 m southwest of Inel included 23.1 g/t gold, 185.3 g/t silver and 0.48 per cent copper.

Samples collected within the Inel area yielded up to 8.8 g/t gold, 67 g/t silver and 11.2 per cent zinc.

Samples from the Camp Porphyry Target 300 m west of Inel contain up to 1 g/t gold and 0.46 per cent copper.

The company is evaluating the 300-400 m wide area between the west side of Inel and Camp Porphyry as a significant porphyry Cu-Au-Mo target.

It expects to publish an NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate for Inel following receipt and validation of all results.

QuestEx President Tony Barresi spoke with Dave Jackson about the expansion.

QuestEx is exploring for gold and copper with a focus on the Golden Triangle and Toodoggone areas of B.C.

QuestEx (QEX) is unchanged trading at $0.84 per share as of 12:16 pm EST.
